MANAGERS HERE SUCK BIG TIME.........We had one manager here that new what he was doing and because he did the Landy's gave them hell. Then they brought in trailer park TRASH. They picked up and left now they have another manager who was better when he was working by himself... Now he is a lazy UMH employee himself. DAMN SAD....then they have a Kyle who is worthless and useless and a Mary who promises the world to people and they supposingly let her go and guess what, They brought the biggest liar back because she makes MONEY for them by selling................

Hey guy,
That Kyle was the kid that Sam Landy brought into the company to teach his kids how to ski.. There were other good employees that Landy got rid of at other parks. Just found out that they thru the couz under the bus who was the regional out west. Gone with same money and some phoney title.

UMH Properties are not maintained as Sam Landy says..the vacant lots (there are many--don't let him kid you!) need to be cleaned up; the grass needs mowed; and when it snows, the roads are not well maintained. In this region, the maintenance "crew" consists of 1 member. He is expected to maintain two properties, in addition to setting up new homes, building porches and decks, repairing water & sewer lines, repairing rentals, etc., in an 8-hour day. There is no overtime paid. In lieu of paying overtime, time off is given. Isn't this against the Federal Wage and Hour Law?

Sam Landy is Cheap...he doesn't pay his vendors until they shut off his credit!!!

Under Sam Landy's direction, UMH Properties is a very poorly managed organization and technologically behind the times. Managers who take the initiative and strive to maintain well run properties are soon ostracized and dismissed for some frivolous reason. He employs Managers, who are either "yes men" or inept relatives, who cater to Sam's lack of communication, lack of business acumen, lack of business ethics, and mood swings.

As far as the residents are concerned..he looks upon them with disdain and fear. Take a ride through one of the properties with him sometime, you'll see how uncomfortable he is. He has no interest in the residents...only the income he receives from them. It enables him to feed his race horses at Congresshill Farms and his skiing vacations!!!!

It's no wonder the stockholders are concerned about their stock falling and are looking to bail out. I would be, too!

Wake up and Open your eyes, Sam Landy! You are running a $Million business, not small corner grocery store!

IF you would eliminate your ego-mania style of management; invest in Capital Property Improvements; upgrade and technologically revamp your office operation; employ honest, responsible managers; increase your maintenance crews; treat your employees fairly, honestly and train them to work as a team; offer competitive wages and benefits; develop a good relationship with your vendors, instead of alienating them; recognize the importance of the residents (without them UMH Properties is nothing); and, manage UMH Properties as a $Million business, you would increase your profit and lower your expenses. The Result: Happy Stockholders, Gold Metal Award winning properties and low rates of vacancy.

Finally, for your information...I am not to be feared, but a responsible, well-paid, college educated resident.

How much longer can EWL put up with the inept management by SAL.
Sam, has always, and will always, have a very serious problem dealing with both employees and stock holders. I have heard the word by-polar mentioned with reference to SAL and it has to have some validity.
SAL has in the past convinced his father that certain action must be taken but it ends up to be a very bad move.

Today SAL was hot dogging around with investors from the mid-west trying to show how rosey things are at UMH. If they only knew?

Guess not. Lived in this property for twenty years and all I've gotten in return were rent increases. Glad to see that I matter to the bigwigs. I'm not even a waitress. I have a good job and a family. Listened to the call on Yahoo and it made me feel worthless. I guess I have a new objective in life, not to be poor and to move out of UMH's park.
