“Six of the eight legislators who endorsed the idea [of rent control] will be in the majority next year,” said the 11.21.2022 issue of CapCon, the nonprofit news publication produced by the Mackinac Center for Public Policy. So, Michigan Capitol Confidential’s headline proclaimed: “Rent control could be coming to Michigan mobile home parks.” CapCon noted in their caption under a photo of a manufactured home land lease community that “Though rent control is common in California and New York, economists conclude they have negative effects.” Note that while this report uses a Michigan specific example, the topic of rent controls has been increasingly common in states such as Iowa, Colorado, and North Dakota, to name but a few places where the push for rent controls has emerged in the manufactured home community space. The claim about the negative effect of rent control has been topic periodically explored by MHProNews/MHLivingNews. To CapCon’s point, it should be noted that per some economists, one of the common effects of rent control is that it dampens the construction of new properties.

 

 

The video above was posted on YouTube in 2014 while the video below was posted in 2019. While distinctive, each makes a broad point similar to what the Mackinac Center for Public Policy has made.

These remarks by ROC President Paul Bradley to MHProNews had as a focus the problems often associated with rent control. Bradley is widely seen as an advocate that is pro-manufactured home community resident, which makes his comments and observations all the more interesting.

That noted, the rate of new manufactured housing community development could hardly be lower than it has been in the 21st century. See related facts about the dwindling numbers of land lease manufactured home communities in the U.S.A.

Resident groups routinely want to see rent control imposed once manufactured home communities change hands, and companies dramatically hike site fees. Additionally, firms such as prominent Manufactured Housing Institute (MHI) member Equity LifeStyle Properties (ELS) has said during published earnings calls that they have learned how to successfully navigate in a rent-controlled environment. Clearly, if ELS can ‘navigate’ rent control regulations, then so to can other MHI members that are focused on consolidating the ‘fragmented’ land-lease community sector.

Those points noted, Mackinac’s about us page says: “The Mackinac Center for Public Policy is a nonprofit research and educational institute that advances the principles of free markets and limited government. Through our research and education programs, we challenge government overreach and advocate for free-market approaches to public policy that free people to realize their potential and their dreams.” In an era of widespread government overreach that routinely impacts smaller firms more than larger ones, the work of the Mackinac Center for Public Policy may be significant to independent and mom and pop types of operations.

With that brief backdrop from the broader rent control vantagepoint to more manufactured home specific views on the subject, the text of CapCon’s report is provided under fair use guidelines below and will be followed by additional information with more MHProNews analysis and commentary. The author of the report, John LaPlante is described as a “Contributing Editor and Senior Fellow” “to the Mackinac Center, he has done editorial work for a number of state-focused think tanks and national advocates for policy change,” per their website.  The third-segment further below of today’s Daily Business News on MHProNews report will be our signature left-right headlines review and the recap of the manufactured housing connected equities for 11.25.2022.

Rent control could be coming to Michigan mobile home parks

Six of the eight legislators who endorsed the idea will be in the majority next year

By John LaPlante
QuoteMarksLeftSideWhen control of the Michigan Legislature switches to Democrats in January, expect some bills that have not received attention under Republican control to get more traction. Two possible bills would impose rent controls on mobile home parks.

House bills 5396 and 5397 were introduced in the Michigan House by Rep. Darrin Camilleri, D-Brownstone in October 2021. They would put price controls on lot rents and require park owners to get state government permission to raise rents

House Bill 5396 would limit lot rent increases during a year to no more than the general inflation rate, as measured by the CPI, or consumer price index.

House Bill 5397 would require any person or company that owns a mobile home park to get the permission of a state commission before raising lot rents. Owners would need to notify the government at least six months before the increase goes into effect.

The Michigan Manufactured Housing Commission, whose members are appointed by the governor, would oversee the requirements. Its members include local government officials, mobile home manufacturers, home dealers, organized labor and park residents.

Advocates of government-imposed limits say that mobile home park residents need them. “Unlike a normal landlord-tenant situation, they can’t just pick up and move. Moving your home is costly and difficult,” one New York official told the New York Post in 2019. Rent controls are politically popular; according to an Oct. 22 article published by the Santa Clara Press Democrat, 104 local governments in California impose rental control on lot rentals.

But efforts to establish controls ran into significant opposition in another state last month. Legislators in Colorado were considering a rent control law, and Gov. Jared Polis, a Democrat, threatened to veto a bill that would have create statewide rent controls on mobile home lots in the Centennial State. According to Colorado Public Radio, Polis was concerned that the measure could lead to some parks being closed or abandoned.
Economists are skeptical of rent controls, though the issue of rent control is usually framed in terms of apartments rather than mobile home parks. In a recent online poll conducted by the University of Chicago, only one of 25 academic economists who expressed an opinion on rent control thought it was beneficial. David Autor, an economics professor at MIT, wrote, “Rent control discourages supply of rental units. Incumbent renters benefit from capped prices. New renters face reduced rental options.”

Both HB 5396 and HB 5397 are sitting in the Committee on Regulatory Reform, with one sponsor and seven co-sponsors, all Democrats. Five of the the legislators will serve in the next House or Senate, including Camerilli, who will move from the House to the Senate.

Michigan Capitol Confidential sent an email to Camerilli’s official e-mail account. As of press time, he did not reply.

II. Additional Information with More MHProNews Analysis and Commentary in Brief

MHProNews has previously cited the thinking of business-economic author Carol Roth, who has pointed out the regulations routinely weigh more heavily on smaller firms than larger ones.

Roth’s thinking would arguably fall broadly in line with that of the Mackinac Center. But as noted in the preface that led into CapCon’s concise report on the Michigan rent control topic, unlike the apartment or even single-family rental home business sectors, those businesses continue to witness the development of new communities and even ‘build to rent’ single-family properties. The manufactured home market has arguably been subjected to inordinate market manipulation from a range of sources throughout the 21st century. Meaning, manufactured home communities are hardly a normal economic case study.  The rules of economics are not therefor suspended, but the typical analysis may not be as cut and dried as it might be in other aspects of mainstream U.S. housing markets.

Antitrust, market manipulation, and RICO laws exist precisely because of the distortions and public harm that can occur in a marketplace when normal ‘free economy’ rules are not being allowed to properly operate. The late Robert “Bob” Van Cleef – a pro-manufactured housing owner, land-lease community resident, and advocate for his community and other residents – made the argument that Florida and other states had anti-price gouging laws that kick into effect temporarily during the aftermath of a disaster such as a hurricane. He said something similar is needed in the land-lease community sector.

RobertBobVanCleefManufacturedHomeCommunityLeaderDiscussesManufacturedHousingInsanityManufacturedHomeLivingNews
https://www.manufacturedhomelivingnews.com/manufactured-home-community-leader-discusses-manufactured-housing-insanity/

To elaborate on Van Cleef’s perspective on ‘temporary’ rent controls that act in a similar fashion to anti-price gouging laws, the example of the prominent and notorious MHI member Frank Rolfe should come to mind. Rolfe has boldly said that there should be no more manufactured home communities built. The obvious economic impact of that is that manufactured home community site fees would tend to rise more rapidly, precisely because of an artificially created scarcity in an environment of increasing demand.

Rigorous antitrust probes and enforcement in a classical, vs. more recent, style that aimed to curb consolidation and preserve the benefits of free markets for consumers and smaller businesses is an approach explored by third-party researchers such as Samuel “Sam” Strommen with Knudson Law or James A. “Jim” Schmitz Jr. and his colleagues, several of whom are with the Minneapolis Federal Reserve.

Manufactured housing is not the typical left-vs.-right policy battleground. Why not? Perhaps it could be blamed to some degree on the follow-the-leader effect sparked by mega-billionaire and crony capitalist market manipulation master, Warren Buffett.

The case can be made that manufactured housing can’t be properly understood apart from grasping the notion of paltering. A mixture of truth is combined with what the Capital Research Center has dubbed “Deception and Misdirection.” As but one example, Clayton claimed over a decade ago that the manufactured home industry had the factual evidence ready to dispel longstanding myths and misconceptions about manufactured housing. True enough. But the industry DID NOT go on to do what Clayton claimed. Why not, given that Berkshire Hathaway wields an outsized influence on manufactured housing and the Manufactured Housing Institute (MHI)? By keeping the industry underperforming, consolidation of smaller firms by larger players is fostered. This is but one of several examples of the market distortions caused by Buffett-preached “moat” building methods. https://www.manufacturedhomelivingnews.com/warren-buffetts-moat-per-kevin-clayton-ceo-clayton-homes-interview-transcript-video-affordable-housing-and-manufactured-homes/

The truth is there to find in the manufactured housing arena. But one must be willing to sift through the competing claims, as well as the deception and misdirection that is deployed by various interest groups in order to find the reality behind the forces that have caused manufactured housing to underperform during a well-publicized affordable housing crisis.

But the association has its own unique status. MHI as a trade group must be held up to its own claims.
