Do Sex Offenders + Child Predators Live By You?

Keep your eye on your children and any strange adults around them.  Ask your local police dept. how to obtain a copy of your neighborhood's sex offender registry list.  Keep in mind, not all sex offenders register like they're required to do. And, some have been known to live in subsidized and tax credited housing complexes where many children also reside.

 Can you imagine released criminals not complying with laws?  <sarcasm>

News about Sun Communities and Other Concerns

 Residents and consumer watchdogs frequently file complaints against Sun Communities regarding steep fee hikes, aggressive management tactics, and poor maintenance across its manufactured home parks and RV resorts.

You can view official corporate data and file a formal grievance through the Better Business Bureau Sun Communities Profile.

Common Complaints

Unexplained Fee Hikes: Residents frequently report sudden, sharp increases in annual lot rent, taxes, and utility or maintenance fees that do not reflect actual cost changes.
Eviction and Sales Disputes: Homeowners allege that management imposes unreasonable, costly repair lists before approving home sales, or uses aggressive tactics and short-notice rule enforcement to threaten evictions. 
Unapproved Rule Changes: Communities have faced pushback—and state inquiries—for enforcing new prospectus amendments or fees without providing legally mandated advance notice.
Poor Communication: Residents note that corporate headquarters typically deflects grievances back to local community general managers, where issues often go unresolved.
Legal Actions and Investigations
Price-Fixing Lawsuits: The company has been tied to multi-state class-action litigation targeting manufactured housing operators over alleged lot rental price-fixing aided by specialized software. 
State Regulatory Inquiries: In states like Florida, agencies such as the Division of Condominiums, Timeshares, and Mobile Homes (under the DBPR) have actively gathered firsthand resident accounts regarding alleged retaliation and improper rule enforcement.

Here is some of the information we found on the name Rhea.

Corporate Governance at State Street

John Rhea serves on the Board of Directors for State Street Corporation, a massive, historic financial institution based in Boston.

Beyond his board role in Boston financial circles, Rhea is an expert in the exact asset class that Boston Financial manages: Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC).

*Note: To date it looks like Boston Financial monitors compliance of Spring Gate or Rockland Place Apts. (or whatever they're calling it nowadays.)

Low Income Housing Tax Credit Funds

 Boston Capital

Founded: 1974 by Jack Manning and Herb Collins. 
Focus: Historically a major player in multifamily apartment properties and LIHTC equity investments, having invested in thousands of properties nationwide.
Current Operations: Operates significantly through Boston Capital Finance (BCF), which provides construction-to-permanent tax-exempt bond financing and conventional loans for affordable housing properties. 

Boston Financial

Founded: 1969 (making it one of the country's longest-standing syndicators focused exclusively on affordable housing).
Ownership: Acquired by ORIX USA in 2016 and operates as a wholly owned subsidiary of ORIX Corporation.
Major Milestone: In late 2020, Boston Financial acquired Boston Capital's sizeable LIHTC fund portfolio, which nearly doubled Boston Financial's equity under management to $15 billion at the time.
Boston Financial acquired Boston Capital's large low-income housing tax credit fund portfolio in December 2020. This major deal doubled Boston Financial's equity under management to $15 billion, while Boston Capital shifted its core focus toward debt financing through Boston Capital Finance. 
Key Differences and Status
Boston Financial: Operates as a major national investment manager and subsidiary of ORIX USA that specializes in raising equity and managing portfolios under the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program.
Boston Capital: Transitioned away from its traditional LIHTC fund sector after selling that portfolio, now operating primarily as a boutique affordable housing lender via Boston Capital Finance.

For Immediate Release  July 23, 2025

Ranking Member Maxine Waters Blasts HUD’s Plans to Drop Major Housing Discrimination Cases and Further Dismantle Fair Housing Protections   WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, Congresswoman Maxine Waters (D-CA), the top Democrat on the House Financial Services Committee, released the following statement in response to reports that the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is preparing to drop seven major investigations and cases against local and state governments across the U.S. concerning alleged discriminatory housing practices. “The Trump Administration’s reported plans to drop seven major housing discrimination cases are a blatant attack on people of color, families with children, women, people with disabilities, and other members of protected classes under the ‘Fair Housing Act.’ The victims in each of these cases will now be denied the justice they deserve. This appalling move is yet another part of the Administration’s war on Fair Housing. Since taking office, the Trump Administration terminated 780 housing agency staff — with plans to fire at least three quarters of staff within the Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity — canceled nearly half of fair housing grants, repealed critical fair housing enforcement through HUD’s Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Rule and the Equal Access Rule, and gave Elon Musk access to personally identifiable discrimination data, including sexual assault survivors. This latest decision underscores the urgent need for Congress to restore the ‘Fair Housing Act.’ That includes passing my bill, the ‘Restoring Fair Housing Protections Eliminated by Trump Act of 2025,’ which would restore the Affirmative Furthering Fair Housing Rule that was eliminated by Secretary Turner and ensure Americans have access to safe and affordable housing.” Committee Address and E-mail U.S. House Committee on Financial Services Democrats 2129 Rayburn House Office Building Washington, DC 20515 Phone: (202) 225-4247 Fax: (771) 200-5093 Email: FSCDems@mail.house.gov # # # # # # # # *Please Note: Any opinions are not necessarily the opinions of the website author(s).

***************

     As you can see above, some months are better than others.  There continue to be a lot of police calls for harrassments, assaults, disturbances, etc. at this LIHTC housing complex. For some strange reason, Rockland Police logs do not often list building numbers and apartment letters where these disturbances and crimes often occur.  When they are listed, it shows a pattern to the public as to which building and apartment residents are causing the majority of difficulties.

      Have to wonder why Corporate management allows the same nuisance tenants to remain on the property for so many years when mgmt. has access to security cameras, complaints,  and police reports.  Corporate management has a long history of spending years attempting to evict those who report crime; yet, won't evict many nuisance residents.  Peculiar to say the least!

Elderly + Handicapped Homeless in America

Skyrocketing rents and unrealistic social security cost of living (COLA) increases throughout the USA have been causing an increase in homelessness throughout the country.  This isn't a recent problem; it's been going on for years and is getting worse. COLA does not keep pace with the real economy and that's the reason so many sober elderly and handicapped people, with a single social security income, can't afford a place to live in the "richest country".  Rents are higher than incomes.
