Welcome to Mobile Home Resident

 

My name is Mike Whitty, and I'd like to welcome you to Mobile Home Resident, a website that provides many of the answers you may ask yourself as a current or future mobile home resident.  As a 14 year resident of Lafayette Place Mobile Home Park (a Sun Communities Property) in Warren, Michigan, and the Director of Mr. Mike's Neighborhood, I've experienced the mobile home industry more than most, and have provided a plethora of articles for you to enjoy reading or listening to.  Visit the website often since I'm always adding more content.

WHY IS THIS WEBSITE IMPORTANT

FOR MOBILE HOME RESIDENTS?

 

After living here for over 14 years dealing with Sun Communities and our Park Management, along with a vast amount of research, I've come to realize that there are many things residents need to know, and just as many things mobile home park owners and managers don't want you to know that this website can answer for you.

IT'S A MATTER

OF TRANSPARENCY!

 

Whether you are just starting your research to living in a mobile home park, or you've been a resident for years, you should use this website any time you have a question or concern to make your experience in your Community as safe and enjoyable as possible.  And if you have a question you don't find an answer, just send me an email and I'll post one.

The content within these articles are the opinions of

Mike Whitty and Mr. Mike's Neighborhood and should be viewed

as educational and informational.
