Description: SUI Sun Communities March 01, 2026
Sun Communities, Inc. (NYSE: SUI) is a publicly traded REIT that, as of September 30 2025, owned, operated, or held interests in 501 developed properties encompassing roughly 174,680 manufactured-home and RV sites across the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom.
For the most recent quarter, SUI reported an occupancy rate of 96.2%, a 5% year-over-year increase in funds from operations (FFO) to $0.84 per share, and a dividend yield hovering around 5.1%, reflecting its strong cash-flow generation and commitment to shareholder returns.
Key drivers for the single-family residential REIT sector include a persistent housing affordability gap, a growing preference for affordable, community-oriented living among Millennials and Gen Z, and a relatively low-interest-rate environment that supports both tenant demand and the company’s ability to finance new acquisitions.
