MHOO members receive untold benefits
Everyone knows that OSTA has moved
legislative mountains over the years that have been pivotal to increased
fair treatment and quality of life for manufactured home park residents. Our
name is recognized in political circles as a force to listen to. This image
has been cultivated with a lot of honest hard work and sustained through our
integrity, good will, networking, research, knowledge and dogged
determination. It is imperative that we not let go of the level we have
achieved in this arena.
You may be surprised to learn that there is a
whole spectrum of work that OSTA does that goes unrecognized, that is not
discussed and that many have no idea goes on! I am talking about
technical assistance OSTA’s availability to members to answer a myriad of questions
concerning manufactured home living, park co-existence, issues of fairness
and general questions that often start with “I was just wondering…”. We are
here for you. We may not be available immediately especially during the
legislative season, but we will always return calls as soon as we are
available. This is an important benefit of OSTA membership a knowledgeable
resource where one can receive solid information, advice and direction.
Some park owners and managers will work with
OSTA to solve problems. Obviously, there are others that will not. We are vested in fair and equitable
treatment of all manufactured home park residents. We can also be involved
in dispute resolution between park residents and/or management. OSTA has a
number of partners and resources we can call upon when we do not have the
ready resources or information to help with a particular issue we never
leave our members alone to cope with these issues on their own. To quote a
current television ad “You have people”, membership in OSTA sees to that!!
At $30.00 annually, OSTA membership is a
value...no matter how you slice it. It’s a low price to pay for
knowledgeable and informed support in an arena that can be unnerving when
problems arise. In the same way that you are thankful for car insurance
when you are involved in a fender-bender with your car, it is reassuring to
know there is a place to call when issues arise concerning Manufactured Home
Park living. Besides a quarterly newsletter, MHOO/OSTA maintains a webpage
where you can look for the latest information and developments in the
manufactured home park world. Read letters from other members and keep up
on a variety of events in Oregon and the Pacific Northwest.
