ERLANGER, Ky., June 13, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Flagship Communities Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) (TSX: MHC.U; MHC.UN) today announced it was awarded Community of the Year for the third consecutive year by the Kentucky Manufactured Housing Institute (KMHI). Flagship also received awards for Retailer of the Year and Retail Salesperson of the Year.
