¶ 3 LME was built in the early 1990s as an upscale, gated, 120-lot manufactured housing community for older adults. LME struggled to find tenants because of the economic and political instability in the early 1990s. In an effort to attract tenants, LME entered into a marketing agreement with a manufactured homes dealer, Lamplighter Homes (Lamplighter). From 1990 to 1997, LME offered a 25-year lease with a maximum annual rent increase tied to the Consumer Price Index (CPI) to tenants who either purchased a model home from Lamplighter or purchased and moved a new manufactured home to LME. LME and Lamplighter advertised the 25-year lease through radio, brochures and other written advertisements. Some of the written advertisements state that the details of the rental agreement would be "specified in the lease."[1]
