Description: SUI Sun Communities October 30, 2025

Sun Communities, Inc. (NYSE:SUI) is a fully integrated REIT that went public in December 1993. As of June 30 2025 it owned, operated, or held interests in 501 manufactured-home (MH), recreational-vehicle (RV) and park-model (UK) communities-about 174,450 developed sites across the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom-and nine marina assets with roughly 3,880 wet slips and dry-storage spaces, the latter classified as discontinued operations.

Key metrics that analysts watch include a FY 2024 occupancy rate of roughly 95% across its core MH/RV portfolio, an AFFO-per-share growth of 12% YoY, and a dividend yield hovering near 5.5%. The business benefits from macro trends such as sustained housing-affordability pressure, an aging-baby-boomer demographic seeking low-maintenance living, and relatively low interest-rate sensitivity compared with traditional multifamily REITs.

For a deeper, data-driven view of SUI’s valuation dynamics, you might explore the analytical dashboards on ValueRay to see how the company’s cash-flow profile stacks up against sector peers.
