Manufactured Housing Communities of Arizona

What Manufactured Housing Communities of Arizona does

Manufactured Housing Communities of Arizona (MHCA) is a non-profit trade association founded in 1947 and headquartered at 2158 North Gilbert Road, Suite 116, Mesa, Arizona. The organization protects and promotes the interests of manufactured housing community owners in Arizona through legislative and legal advocacy, lobbying at the state legislature, in-house attorney services, manager education and certification, and ongoing publications and resources. MHCA is governed by a volunteer Board of community owners elected annually by the membership, with Susan Brenton serving as Executive Director and Mark Roady as President (also President of MAR Management, Inc.).

MHCA generates revenue through four primary streams: recurring annual membership dues, event and training fees (including the Annual Conference scheduled May 12-14, 2027 at WeKoPa Resort and manager certification classes held across Arizona cities), vendor sponsorships and advertising (with named sponsors Grayling and RHP), and an online store selling forms and products to members. Members receive up to 20% savings on products and services, discounted event pricing, access to online manager training and certification (including a year-round 6-hour online module), form-creation tools, and an online member directory. The association's addressable market in Arizona covers approximately 190 communities and 45,000+ homesites across five Arizona markets per Datacomp JLT Market Reports.

The underlying technology stack is modest and not a competitive differentiator: MHCA operates a public website (azmhca.com) built on Naylor Association Management Software for membership management, events, communications, and an online store. There are no proprietary AI, data, or platform capabilities disclosed. Distribution is direct-to-member via the website, email, in-person events, and a phased vendor sponsorship program, with no resellers or channel partners beyond the membership itself.
