A Resident-Owned Community in Santa Barbara

ROC stands for Resident-Owned Community. It means the residents collectively own and govern the park, creating a stable, democratic, and affordable living environment.

At Los Amigos Mobile Home Estates, this model empowers our residents. Instead of an outside corporation, the community itself makes decisions about park management, maintenance, and improvements, ensuring your home and neighborhood are cared for by the people who live here.

Experience the Advantages of Resident Ownership

Choosing a Resident-Owned Community (ROC) at Los Amigos means more than just a place to live—it's an investment in stability, control, and your financial future. Discover the key benefits that set our community apart.

Resident Control & Stability

Residents collectively own and govern the park, ensuring decisions prioritize community well-being over external profits. This creates long-term stability and protects against arbitrary rent increases or park closures.

Financial Advantages & Predictability

ROC models often lead to more predictable lot fees, as surplus revenue is reinvested into community improvements rather than distributed to outside investors. This can mean better long-term value for your housing investment.

Enhanced Community Involvement

Have a direct voice in community decisions through resident-elected boards. This collaborative approach fosters a stronger, more connected neighborhood where everyone has a stake in maintaining and improving their environment.

Property Value Protection

The stability of a resident-owned community can help protect and potentially enhance the value of your manufactured home, as the park's future is secured by its residents rather than external market forces.

"Resident ownership transforms a rental lot into a true community asset. It's about having control over your home's environment and financial future."
