Do you live in SUN community? Are you being harassed by management? Are you being harassed by other residents and management does nothing about it? Are you being treated poorly and unfairly? Are you sick and tired of it? Please join us, we are setting up a nation wide class action lawsuit against SUN community. PLEASE join our Facebook page "No Longer A Victim" for more information and to discuss with other members all the issues of Sun community. We need to unite & band together, join us & help us teach Sun Community a very harsh lesson.
We are very interested in joining a class action suit against Sun Communities. We have lived in Sunset Ridge, Kyle, TX for 17 yrs. There were no problems until Aug. 2017 when new manager, Kim B, took over. By years' end, she had issued 134 citations to the 172 lots here. It has not got any better!
Summer of 2018, a petition was circulated throughout the community, yielding 104 signatures. This was sent to corporate. Response was an attempt to pacify us, but nothing has changed. Manager is still rude, unprofessional, and bullying. Residents are moving out every day. Corporate appears not to care. What can be done?
Bonnie, please go to No Longer a Victim on facebook. we can discuss all inquiries there in private! thank you!
If you find out what to do could you please let me know. I have the same problem in the resort I’ve been living in for over a year and use to work at. The new manager bullied the staff to the point of us quitting. I was the first to leave. I still stayed living there and the park has gone down hill. Today 11/9/18 we were sent the weekly newsletter and the manager says any vehicles that are not neat and clean in appearance are not allowed in the park. But yet she allows certain residents go with having very dirty rigs and she has not kept up with keeping the resort clean in appearance. She did make an attempt to polish things up only before our seasonal guests returned. She also sticks her nose where it doesn’t belong, I was having a conversation with some other guests about my sons involvement in a very serious car accident, she had the odacity to walk up and ease drop. I had made complaints to corporate and so have many others and have gotten nowhere. I know I will face harassment from this, I usually do eventually. Please let me know if there’s any help out there.
Hi, I'm in Michigan, wondering how you are progressing. I tried to find something on the no longer a victim, no luck under sun homes.. I know people who have gone to court and won.. Pictures, statements, documentation and each time you're a resident communication, have the secretary stamp and sign the document. Nothing verbal matters they get sudden alshimers. Most are too scared to put their name on anything, for fear of being targeted. Look to the California lawsuit for details, and you can contact the people there for advice, don't give up. Your not alone! I'm doing the same here. Maria Willson on facebook. I'll give you my number.
I won my law suit and yet they still continue to screw something up again and again...won't be long and I'll be in court again...they don't like me very much bc I speak up and put my foot down. Walking over me doesn't work...there illegal process and ways Will come to an end...Plus im a student in the legal law field...Britta

Maria - I am also a home OWNER in Sun Communities Cider Mill Village in Middleville, MI.
The behaviors and harassment of myself by that management has become virtually unbearable and I am truly glad to see that there well might be a class action suit out there as this is EXACTLY what I mentioned to the regional level last year when this targeting truly began!
Any guidance or help I can receive and/or give I sure am 100% ready to move on this myself!
I’m in cider mill too contacting a lawyer ! Something has to be done this cannot be legal
What community are you from?
I am also interested in joining this class action lawsuit. At the present time I am being harassed and falsely accused by the manager at River Plantation RV Resort. The manager had a letter sent to corporate in regards to poor property management and she assumed I sent this letter so she went around the park and gathered statements from her personal friends and had them write a letter saying I was bullying and harassing them. I have never bullied anyone or harassed anyone in my entire life. She has now given me 30 days to vacate the property. So unfair and all Totaly made up.
What about those of us that don't have facebook? Could you please post a link to the lawsuit? thank you.
i'm from Palos Verdes Shores and yes there is severe abuse, pesticides have killed all the wildlife on our beautiful golf course. people that live on it are having trouble breathing.
I don't think there is a lawsuit yet. They need to start talking to lawyers. Fast. Many lawsuits against Sun right now. Contact an attorney and start asking questions about your particular issue. If you want others to join you in a lawsuit, get signed petitions from tenants and present to attorneys. It will be work but worth it.
That's the problem many people can't find the Facebook page
Did you ever find the Facebook Page? I live in Maplewood Manor in Brunswick Maine. I am trying to find where there is some actual progress being made for a Lawsuit. Thanks, Elizabeth
I too am being singled out and harressed. Shell Creek Punta Gorda Florida
I'm a current resident in Cobus Green in Ocseola, In and have been harrassed constantly for the past year by management. Like clockwork we put in a work order only to get a bogus violation within 30 days. Recently it took 3 months to have our storm door replaced (broken due to rust) and then was charged 30 days later for $260. The notice for payment stated to be paid in our September 2018 rent and it was May 2019. Tried to pay rent on time, notifying them that the notice was invalid and they refused our rent payment because it didnt include the fee for the door. They then reissued the notice on may 6th after rent was already past due stating it was still due in may rent. We called corporate and filed a complaint and within 24hrs had a notice of violation on me door for a rake and garden hose. Walked just my street and 6 neighbors have the same out but only us received the notice of violation. Clearly harassment and retaliation.
Kristina H...we have been here several years and I am constantly picked at for one thing or another...we own our home and it is very nice...but these 'notices to quit' they send out are quite disturbing...they will not take care of their issues properly...and when they see a weed in my area...we get a notice to quit! I swear to God...no weeds. I asked them to show me. I am going to a lawer and if there is a class action suit...we will certainly join it.
My ex lives in Hudsonville, MI. Has lived in the same trailer, same lot for 42 years. This park started out as private and went corporate quite a few years ago. No one told my ex that when his park went corporate he lost over 3/4 of his yard which is out behind his trailer, going down towards a pond that used to be fenced in. Pond is no longer fenced in either. What sucks is that someone moved a trailer into the open lot next door and is taking up a lot of what he thought was his back yard but is now common ground. How come no one told him about the common ground thing. He mowed all of that extra yard for the last 20yrs and it wasn't even his yard anymore. When he moved in the park back in 1975 he wanted a big yard and thought is what he had and the manager of the park actually walked the lot with him to show him where he was to mow. Now, according to management, what he once mowed and thought was his yard is no longer his and the side yard? What side yard! All he has to mow now is something that might take only ten minutes. What a pathetic way to treat a resident that has been here for over 42 yrs. how do you join this class action suit.
I have lived in one of their communities for eight years now this was the nicest park in the area when they took over and now it's turning into one of the dumpiest ones because they let the people that rent the property not follow the rules while the homeowners get bullied for the grass and other little odds and ends but the home next to me has not cut the grass in two weeks and the park won't cut it and now there's a 4ft pool on one of the rental properties and has been there for 2 weeks now there has been like three calls made to the office there was nothing being done about it they are bullying the homeowners to get them to sell out so that they can put rental properties in here and make more money is what it boils down to if you do start a class action suit please let me know my email is d a y n a r a 3 9 @gmail.com and my name is Sandy Morris
Rock Crusher RV Park and Crystal River Florida Christy is the manager and she is horrible she harasses and is very rude she's very unprofessional and yet still nothing is happening it's been like this for 6 months straight
I am also interested in joining this class action lawsuit. At the present time I am being harassed and falsely accused by the manager Amber Williams at River Plantation RV Resort in Sevierville Tennessee The manager had a letter sent to corporate in regards to poor property management and she assumed I sent this letter but I did not so she went around the park and gathered statements from her personal friends and had them write a letter saying I was bullying and harassing them. I have never bullied anyone or harassed anyone in my entire life. She has now given me 30 days to vacate the property. So unfair and all Totaly made up. She now has had the maintenance supervisory that is her husband aim a park camera directly on out Motor Coach.
Is this available to residents in Canadian Sun properties
Cobus Green, Osceola, IN Sun Properties
Most of us are afraid to comment because of retaliation. I like my park but the management needs to be dealt with. They do try to intimidate us home "owners". Bullying has to be rectified among children in our schools...so come on 'adult' bullying is just sinful. Our lives are rough enough having to deal with the times and issues...should not have to deal with mean and wicked people where we live. Do these people not realize what they are doing is sooo not right!? More home owners in this and other parks need to do something NOW.
I am interested in joining this! Not only am I being sent to court over someone who has lived with me for the past 7 years and the new manager wants to harrarss me to get him to move out, but yet will not give him the opportunity to even be added to my lease. Also, harrarsed by occupants in here that think they"Run" this park. It's worse than highschool! Not like I can just up and move as many would say to do! Why can't SUN COMMUNITIES TREAT PEOPLE LIKE ACTUAL PEOPLE?
If you find the Facebook page or lawsuit please let me know! I need to join too and haven’t found it!
Has anyone found this Facebook page? I need to join this page and lawsuit! I have two binders worth of illegal activities done to me by management at Cider Mill Crossings in Fenton, MI. You can see I’m not the only one just by looking at their google reviews! Please help me find the page!
I couldn’t find the FB page either. Do you have information now?
Thanks!

I found this contact information for current lawsuits-http://www.ccj-mi.org/pages/Current-Issues. If you think you may be affected by this lawsuit: Call CCJ's Housing Law Attorney, Greg Abler, at [protected] ext. 301. Scroll down to Yamaoka et al. v. Sun Communities, Inc.: Conversion of Mobile Homes by Mobile Home Parks as well as Yamaoka et al. v. Jocelyn Benson, in her official capacity as Secretary of State, Michigan Department of State: Constitutionality of Policy Regarding Titling of "Abandoned"Mobile Homes. My mom lives in one of the parks and has endured harassment by neighbors and park management, all while fighting a life threatening illness. She has neighbors that have squatters living in a van in their driveway among other things. Since Sun took over her park, it has went from a nice, clean retirement community to ghetto. She was told Thursday afternoon that she needed to rake by Sunday or incur a $100 fee...it is Good Friday and Easter. Her yard is well kept and neat- leaves left from snow thaw. Her house is impeccable, clean and well maintained.
I also am being harassed by park management over every little thing I try to do. i am currently in the process of remodeling and had some remodeling items in carport, got a notice to remove. had furniture to make it easier to put down new flooring, another notice. had a fridge on sunporch for extra food/drinks, got noticed. they have residents taking pics. yet i see so many other properties that have far more clutter in carports and sunporches than i ever did.
been here for 6 years, Holly Forest, Holly Hill Fl and there have been 5 managers and right now we share a manager with another property. the "office asst" is in charge and does whatever she wants.
i have been told they want everyone to abide by the rules and live up to the Sun Communities standard but not true. i am waiting until the end of July to see if any of the other residents with the clutter will be cleaned up. i have been taking pics of all the homes not following the rules.
is there anyone else in this park that is having similar issues?
This MUST be the norm for Sun et al. The trajectory in which Corporate allowing the "Parks" to run "wild" and so-called Managers put in place rules per each individual and lot. Therefore the Park ultimately becomes a TOTAL Shanty Town. Illegal rug paraphernalia, drug dealers, sales are the norm. My property was flooded 5 months ago and I have been told to "do whatever-fix it". The flood was caused by vandals who intentionally broke a water pipe. Not only did I have water 8" all around, there was "Sewage" mixed in with it. There is a very old septic system here and its shallow. The lot next door to me that is now vacant has 3 large gapping holes that go to the sewage. Roaches crawl around in and out all day and night. It gets worse, but I'll stop there.
I have A LOT of photos before and after of the parks demise. Recent photos and videos that Sun would NOT want seen on Facebook. What is the Facebook site? I know Sun has an employee that works fulltime form headquarter in Southfield for the very purpose of "taking down" ANY NEGATIVE statement from any and everyone who posts less than a favorable review on line.
I too would like to learn more of this lawsuit. The website listed yields no result when I search. The Park that I am in has lost 100 tenants in 3 years.
This place is run A Muck. So goes the saying, "Run from Sun"!
me too. need to be included.

My family and I currently live in a Sun Community. We are continually written up for no reason. But yet my neighbor allows her dogs to run around everywhere.
CERTIFIED service dog. I also have too many health issues to have to deal with everything that I have to deal with...
My service doesn't even want to go to the bathroom in her own yard, because of this problem. But the neighbor gets mad at me when I shoo her dog out of my yard. Um hello... It's my yard, and there is a leash law... Not sorry. This same neighbor comes in all hours of the night, bass loud AF, Slamming car doors. Keeping my children, and myself away all hours of the night. The property manager's only solution was to tell me to call the cops on my neighbors.
These same neighbors leave their cigarette butts EVERYWHERE. Still nothing is done. Me, and all the neighbors around have complained about the dogs, and the inconsideration of other's personal space.
We have asked her very nicely I might add, for several years to cease and desist. It's only gotten worse. ANd they used to get away with it with the previous property manager. Doesn't seem the new one is any different than the last. Same nonsense, different day.
But i'm being written up, my trashcan is within view. C'mon... Let me know when i've actually done something wrong.
Management does nothing. The previous park manager decided to call me and start calling me names because I asked for something to be done about the rude and inconsiderate neighbors. The new one just writes you up for no reason.
NOTHING has changed. IT's only gotten worse. How do I sign up. Bc i'm done.
But i'm being written up because my trashcan is within view?!?!?! NO... I'm Done... Absolutely, completely done.
Sorry that’s supposed to say that I have a certified service dog.
Could someone please post a link for those that don't have facebook? Please and thank you.
I have live in one of their communities for over 30 years. Asked and wrote many times about standing water under mobile home and poor drainage. Mildew smell left under after season changes so bad it chocks you out. Inch and a half driveway cracks, twisted ankle . Always Re cemented neighbors around me but never mine. Top the cake was . Water main broke in Feb , not at home so management crawled under shut water off. Called plumber not knowing and then called management and she said if plumber will come get parts they ( park ) would pay for labor. Daughter went grabbed parts. Labor was $350.00 . Got bill, called Manager and denied any such communication on that matter. So done . Wanting to sell my mobile home and go.
What park do you live in?
Sweetwater RV Florida
Sun Community. Has liied cheated me out of my mobile home and stole with malicious afor thought My home and evicted me during a time when evictions were under a moritorium.he manager carried out a cruel and sadistic attack against me. I lived in the community for over 10 years. Be allowed to happen againI need help getting my mobile home back and to help this kind of activity from happening again.If a thought investigation was instituted I think laws have been broken and this type of disregard for a persons dignity and home should never.
Please call legal aid in your area. Call your Attorney General. You need to get seriously proactive now. File a claim in your Precincts JP Court. You can file as a pauper for free. Sue for maximum damage. Appeal. Or contact the person who spoke about class action suit.
They did close to the same to us! They stole all 5 of our homes !
I was just kicked out after 15 years of being a resident in cape may lake laurie. We have been threatened by management having visitors. Kids friends. This week we were given 2 hrs to remove our items and leave. Our son helped our friends daughter who was intoxicated he tried several times to pick her up. Somone came in and told her to sober up in the shower. When security came he got scrared and left and got me. We went back together and the police were there.
We have never been late on payments. Last year we came back to our site being damaged. Over a ton of rock missing after they put the main electrical box for the street, cable box, and 2 50 amp electric box. After management told us they were replacing the stone for the year, this year he said he wasn't doing it. We have been harassed by the man and been in fear for this very thing to happen.
I'm beyond sick of being accused of not paying rent when I always have proof! Taping letters to my windows and sending certified letters of eviction when I already paid!'
Many tenants are having this problem nationwide. I have wondered if rent payments are being embezzled by management or if they are really interested in your home. Do you own your home that sits on the lot? If so...the renters experiencing this may be being targeted and need to start prepping for a long battle. Call your local Tenant's Cou cils, make reports to your Attorney General. You need these to be on record for court later. Take good notes and load a recording app on your phone. Record all conversations with them. If they ever send in attorneys to speak with you down the road...refuse to speak to them.
I live in Sweetwater Park for 4 years now and we are being bullied by Donna and no one at the office will help us because they want our lot ! We have asked for our transfer of title paper's and they won't give it to us . Donna also refuses to give me the vin # to my camper unfortunately I can't find it! It's been 4 years and we have not been asked for it until now.Donna throws her weight around and has for a while ,Kim the other one who is suppose to be the manager has done absolutely nothing to help us! There are so many people who have already left this park for reasons far beyond the imagination. What do we do . Do we walk away or fight. I'm not sure if fighting for a place where the staff is making up rules as they go is where I want to live anymore. The lawn is never kept up. The staff doesn't want to work on resolving any issues. The pool is surrounded by drunk women who start fights with everyone. They have residents who have recently been out of jail living amoung us. The police are here all the time . They treat the snowbirds better then the full timers. This place is a joke
This sounds somewhat like Shell creek
I've lived here for 4 years and in the last few months I've had a neighbor harnessing me and my husband. We have told management and they do nothing, they now after 4 years decided they want a title that we don't have and they won't give us our vin # or the transfer of ownership papers . We are being bullied by Donna because she doesn't like my husband. They want us out we are both disabled and should not have to leave.
They made us buy our own water meters, then started buying our water from the city, and charge us more than they pay.
We pay the county property taxes which they say is our ad valorem tax, then sun charges us another $200 a year for the same thing it doesn't matter how big your lot is everyone pays the same amount.
They tell us nothing on the lot is their responsibility, if a tree is messing up your home, they say we have to pay to remove it.
They harass on how our yard looks but they refuse to clean up community areas while paying a man $18 hr to do nothing.
We have a live in manager who you can only talk to between 8am and 5 pm.
They tried to tell us we had to give them copies of our title and tag registrations, so they know who's living in our home.
I have a lot map stating how big my lot is but they say their manger decides how big it is.
If you complain your told that if we don't like it move.
It's saying if we get together to try to stop some of these things they can evict us, so everyone is afraid to do anything.
They put things in the prospectus then change it in a newsletter.
They've had meetings with 4 people in the voluntary homeowners association that only has 20% of the people living here rather than following state laws and having a meeting with all of us, which is why we now pay our water bill than as it was where we didn't, but they also got the club house rebuilt.
None of these things happened until Sun bought our park, a lawyer told us we sign away all our rights to Sun, I heard that the prospectus they made says it's a legal and binding contract even if we don't sign it, me I only have the papers I signed when we bought our home, so I don't know.
I'm 65 yrs old with a 72 yr old wife who is a stroke victim, so it doesn't matter all that much anymore I'm just writing this so other's out there will see what they are getting into with Sun.
I tried to reach out to your Facebook page but couldn’t.I am going through the same to the point that the life of my family and me have been threatened and I am getting Benjamin Crump involved because the manager at my community is siding with the aggressors who have a lengthy criminal record.
Horrible I've had so many issues they won't fix anything . Broken cabnits bad carpet broken washer toilet seat it's always that's the renters job to clean or replace ! I fought months to get them to even address moisture issues in my home . They want us to buy it but refuse to fix any of the issues in the home. That's what the so rent trailers out untill they are broke down and need alot of work and then tell you buy it or move . Then they sell it to someone else so they don't have to fix it . It's insane. I've done 90 % of repairs in my home as a renter because they either never address it or send someone 6 months later to do a cover up half [censored] job that holds for maybe a month .
I have a case against them right now but have spent over 2k in legal fees. They offered 1300 which doesn't even cover the months we couldn't go there.
Why can't I find the page on Facebook. I have tried multiple times. Please send
No longer a victim page.
I am a current residence of Alpine Meadows sunhome community the treatment is unbelievable for me here been here 10 years now had to fight all 10 years just for normal living conditions gutter steel clogged driveway falling apart furnace works half the time every time I question with the front office is either that's going to be a expensive repair you might have to cover as a renter or nothing ever happens or I would end up replacing it myself
Well i was unexpectedly kicked out of a mobile home that I owned from a community owned by sun communities. Now we're homeless no where to live.hard to find a place. Me and my husband and 2 cats
Yes! Please help me I am being harassed continuaously by a specific manager everytime he gets called back to oversee our park. He has caused me a great deal of mental and financial stress fighting his harassment. He sicks the manager i me for bogus. Wright ups and not anyone else. Sun lawyers even told him to stop. My file is full of lies, lies lies!
