About Monmouth Manufactured Home Community (MMHC - WEST)

34 lots with 2 parking spaces per lot. No on-street parking overnight. Reasonable sized lots.
On-site Persons, in MMHC - WEST, act as the “eyes and ears” of MMHC for us. The best Lot Rent solution is to have the Lessees pay Lot rent directly to a Local Bank; and then monitor payments online.) NOTE: This is how we operate our Banking at our Park, in Galesburg; Lessees pay directly at “our” local in town bank.
This park has all the MAGIC INGREDIENTS, as follows:
Homes are tenant owned.
Lots are to be mowed weekly by lessees . (Our Rules allow us to force mow if needed); a clean well-maintained park.
Tenants pay all utilities to City and Public Utilities; (no utility billing or collecting)
The City owns and maintains the streets, including: snow removal; The City also runs street/gutter washer-machine on streets. The City owns and maintains the main sewer and main water lines. The City vacuums up leaves at the curb in the fall.
Waste hauler provides the individual garbage containers; the “cans” are picked up at the curb. Lessees pay their garbage bill and their water and sewer bill, directly to the City. We have a 24 hour rule; Garbage cans at the curb on Wed. evening, and returned to one’s home by Thurs. evening.
Well-maintained homes; U.S. mail delivery to their mailboxes.
Well-operated; efficient, with strict rules and regulations which are enforced: Re: for aesthetics, safety, and a more enjoyable living atmosphere.
