The local church understanding is that the mansion is God Himself.

The term itself means that Catholicism inserted pagan ideas into the Bible. The Bible does not speak of heavenly mansions. The thought of heavenly mansions comes from paganism, and can be found in Buddhism or Hinduism today.

This view has support in wider Christianity, as this ministry website states (I don't think this group has any affiliation with LSM or LEe)

The hope of going to an eternal mansion in Heaven is not based on the Scriptures. In fact, this belief actually leads away from the redemptive purposes of God.

Even Gotquestions seems to have grasped the idea:

the imagery is of multitudes together, not living separately in different mansions.

So, the (true) meaning of mansions can be found in many Christian resources.
