FG Communities Expands Footprint in North Carolina’s Affordable Housing Market
Event summary
- FG Communities completed the acquisition of a manufactured housing community in Scotland Neck, North Carolina.
- The acquired community comprises approximately 11 acres with 38 homesites.
- FG Communities now manages a portfolio of 73 properties with over 3,000 homesites.
- The acquisition is located near key employment hubs like Rocky Mount and Wilson.
The big picture
FG Communities' acquisition strategy is directly aligned with the increasing demand for affordable housing in the southeastern US, particularly as rising interest rates and construction costs limit traditional homeownership opportunities. With a portfolio exceeding 3,000 homesites, FG Communities is establishing itself as a significant player in the manufactured housing sector, but its success hinges on maintaining operational efficiency and navigating potential regulatory changes impacting the industry.

- Growth Strategy
- The pace at which FG Communities can identify and integrate additional communities will determine its ability to scale its portfolio and achieve its stated mission of preserving affordable housing.
