Halifax Estates Residents Gain Ownership of Mobile Home Park Community in Historic Conversion

The residents of Halifax Estates, a mobile home park community in Halifax, Massachusetts, have been working to gain ownership over their community for the past two and a half years. Today, we are pleased to announce that they have completed their deal! Congratulations Halifax Estates!

With 430 homes, Halifax Estates has become the largest resident-owned community in the history of the ROC (Resident Owned Communities) USA network.

This is a community of people aged 55+ with a nine member board of directors, all of whom are women. They’ve worked on this deal completely as volunteers.
