4. NOTES RECEIVABLE FROM MOBILE HOME PARKS

The notes receivable from mobile home parks (“MHP Notes”) relate to mobile homes sold to mobile home parks and financed through notes receivable. The MHP Notes have varying maturity dates and require monthly principal and interest payments. The interest rate on the MHP Notes can be fixed or variable, and the interest rates range from 6.9% to 12.5%, excluding the Default Loans defined below. The average interest rate per loan, excluding the Default Loans below, was approximately 8.0% as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, with maturities that range from 1 to 10 years. The collateral underlying the MHP Notes are individual mobile homes which can be repossessed and resold. The MHP Notes are generally personally guaranteed by borrowers with substantial financial resources.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had concentrations of MHP Notes with three independent third-parties and their respective affiliates that equated to 24.0%, 17.2% and 13.4% of the principal balance outstanding, all of which was secured by the mobile homes. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had concentrations of MHP Notes with three independent third-parties and their respective affiliates that equated to 24.5%, 17.9% and 14.0% of the principal balance outstanding, all of which was secured by the mobile homes.

MHP Notes are stated at amounts due from customers, net of allowance for loan losses. The Company determines the allowance by considering several factors, including the aging of the past due balance, the customer’s payment history, and the Company’s previous loss history. The Company establishes an allowance composed of specific and general reserve amounts. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the MHP Notes balance is presented net of unamortized finance fees of $1,257 and $1,565, respectively. The finance fees are amortized over the life of the MHP Notes.

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 there were past due balances of $262 and $98, respectively, on the MHP Notes excluding the Default Loans, as defined below. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, there were no charge offs recorded for MHP Notes. Allowance for loan loss for the MHP Notes was $616 and $735 as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there was a minimal impaired balance of MHP Notes. Collateral for repossessed loans is acquired through foreclosure or similar proceedings and is recorded at the estimated fair value of the home, less the costs to sell.

Approximately $54 million of MHP Notes and Other notes receivable is with borrowers either owned or operated by one individual. Approximately $36 million of these notes currently is in default (the “Default Loans”) and is the subject of ongoing litigation in which the Company is the plaintiff. These notes are collateralized by mobile homes and land and are personally guaranteed by multiple borrowers. The Company evaluated the recoverability of these notes as of March 31, 2024 and determined a provision for expected loan losses is not deemed necessary based on the analysis of the underlying collateral. The Company accelerated the Default Loans at the end of January, 2024. Upon acceleration, the loans accrue interest at a rate of 17.5% and are due on demand. At March 31, 2024 the Default Loans are presented on the accompanying balance sheets under the heading Current assets, with $26 million in Current portion of notes receivable from mobile home parks (“MHP”) and $10 million in Current portion of other notes receivable. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company foreclosed on property and homes of $2.3 million that is included on the accompanying balance sheets in Property, plant and equipment, net.
