Podcasts about mobile home parks

Today's episode is from Mobile Home Park #21 that originally aired on Aug. 8, 2016. Charles and I will discuss mistake number 10 from our popular eBook, “The 21 Biggest Mistakes Investors Make When purchasing their First Mobile Home Park…and how to avoid them.” We have all heard the phrase, “Use the seller's numbers” time and time again. This works great when you notice a seller is paying twice as much as they should for management or when your seller is paying for a utility you plan to pass through. However, this can quickly go awry when talking about repairs and maintenance, especially when the numbers are understated.     Recommended Resources: Accredited Investors, you're invited to Join the Cashflow Investor Club to learn how you can partner with Kevin Bupp on current and upcoming opportunities to create passive cash flow and build wealth. Join the Club!

Although Mobile Home Parks have been great investments over the past couple decades, they have not been immune to the same challenges that other asset classes have faced. These include interest rate escalations plus operating costs such as labor, supplies, and insurance. Despite these headwinds, however, prices have mostly held firm although imminent loan maturities may yield attractive buying opportunities. Jeff Cook, CEO of Cook Properties, is the largest Mobile Home Park operator in the state of New York. Jeff has enjoyed amazing success but has experienced growing pains over the past couple years that have impacted his latest fund. 

In this episode of The MHP Broker's  Tips and Tricks podcast, Maxwell Baker, president of The Mobile Home Park Broker, briefly interviewed company broker Jeff Dodge regarding his closing of an expansive Tallahassee, Florida mobile home park. As with every Tips and Tricks podcast episode, this one is brought to you by The MHP Broker's proprietary Community Price Maximizer. Use this four-step system to get the highest price possible for your mobile home park or RV community when you sell it through The MHP Broker. Guaranteed. Call Max for details. Here Are the Show Highlights: Jeff explained that one potential challenge to this Tallahassee Mobile Home Park Estates deal was that the owners lived in another state and weren't present during most of the transaction. In fact, it was their physical distance from the park that motivated their decision to sell, and to invest the proceeds closer to their home. (Jeff, 1:04) This transaction proves the point that The MHP Brokers can transact a sale whether or not the owners are present, from running drones to calculate footage to handling the underwriting and all contact with buyers. (Max, 1:278) The park had 90 percent occupancy, with 20 lots on about 15.5 acres. There were 11 tenant-owned homes and 8 park-owned homes, with one unoccupied home and one vacant lot. Being part of the thriving major city of Tallahassee and having city water and paved roads throughout, and plenty of room for expansion on those fifteen city acres, there was a lot of buyer interest. As a result, there were multiple offers, and the one they went with was a buyer who owned other parks in the area, and the brokers had worked with him in the past. The buyer was able to get bank financing, and the deal closed promptly. (Jeff, 2:06) Well, there was one little hitch. A lawyer forgot to include his fee, so MHP Broker had to do a little price haggling at the end. That proved a little harrowing for a while, but it all worked out fine in the end. (Max, 2:58) What Jeff learned (or relearned) from the transaction was that unforeseen issues can come up at any time. Sometimes you have to be creative, but the issues can all be dealt with if you think it out, and the transaction caan close to everyone's satisfaction. (Jeff, 3:30) The Mobile Home Park Broker won't let your deal go south. They've got tons of experience keeping deals on track and closing to the satisfaction of all parties. And you don't even have to be on the scene while they handle your transaction. So reach out to Jeff Dodge, Max Baker or other team members  at The MHP Broker, (678) 932-0200. Or drop them a line at info@themhpbroker.com. Power Quotes in This Episode: “We had a little bit of drama at the closing when one of our attorneys forgot to add his fee, so we had to negotiate that out a little bit. Everybody got a little fluffy-tailed, but ultimately, Jeff was able to do the negotiation and get that closing. So yeah, it was a little scary there at the end, because everybody was getting all up in hands about it, but we were able to get it done.” (Max, 2:58) “Even though issues can arise any time up until closing…we can always find a good resolution and…sometimes we have to get creative. You know, those things can come up at any point and you have to be ready to overcome (them).” (Jeff, 3:30) “I'll just say that we're able to get to the finish line, and both parties were happy with the outcome eventually, and (to) everybody out there listening, we typically can find the right buyer for you. So, just give us the opportunity.” (Jeff, 3:58) “We can get funding. We can find the buyer. We can make the experience white-glove for you (the seller).”  (Max, 4:07)

Today's episode is from Mobile Home Park #122 that originally aired on Jan. 6, 2021. The practice in grading mobile home parks with the "star" rating (usually one to five stars), which exists for no other type of commercial real estate. What makes this interesting is that almost no one who uses the rating knows what it means or where it comes from. Ask a broker, lender, or even large corporate operators what the difference is between a three-star and a five-star park, and you will likely get a muddled response referring to amenities, paved streets, or swimming pools, but no hard data about how the stars are assigned or who does it.  Learn About Investment and Partnership Opportunities with Kevin and His Team  Recommended Resources: Accredited Investors, you're invited to Join the Cashflow Investor Club to learn how you can partner with Kevin Bupp on current and upcoming opportunities to create passive cash flow and build wealth. Join the Club!

One asset class that still has great deals on sub-institutional properties is Mobile Home Parks. Although larger parks near major metros are being acquired by REITs, Private Equity, and other institutions, parks with fewer than 100 sites are being acquired by smaller investors with far less competition. Smaller parks in secondary and tertiary markets offer great buying opportunities with value-add components that result in tremendous value and cash flow. Ferd Niemann IV, Mobile Home Park lawyer and investor, has acquired 25 parks in mostly small markets across five Midwestern states. 

We all know that celebrities use plastic surgery to augment or alter their appearance. But how can a mobile home park share in this ability to improve the looks of the property using man-made products? In this Mobile Home Park Mastery podcast we're going to review some of the methods that allow you to increase your community's beauty quickly and at a relatively low cost.

Today's episode is from Mobile Home Park #65 that originally aired on April 27, 2017. Welcome to the Mobile Home Park Academy podcast. In this episode, Charles and I will discuss mistake number 20 from our popular eBook, “The 21 Biggest Mistakes Investors Make When purchasing their First Mobile Home Park…and how to avoid them.” There are many different ways to obtain financing on a mobile home park. Everything from a master-lease with purchase option all the way to doing sophisticated CMBS loans, we cover it all. As an investor, you need to understand what these options are and when they are appropriate. Certain parks you will run into throughout your search will simply need to be creatively financed based on how they are performing. Being able to recognize this immediately will allow you to become a better negotiator and will keep you from wasting your time with unrealistic sellers. Our goal is to show you how to identify the most appropriate financing options for the park you are looking at. We will also give you strategies to help make the financing process easier and make you more effective at conveying your needs to a seller. In addition to this we will show you the proper ways to structure these creatively financed deals.   Recommended Resources: Accredited Investors, you're invited to Join the Cashflow Investor Club to learn how you can partner with Kevin Bupp on current and upcoming opportunities to create passive cash flow and build wealth. Join the Club!

In this episode of the Great Trials Podcast, hosts Steve Lowry and Yvonne Godfrey discuss the case of Ramirez v. Avalon Mobile Home Park with guests Tony DelCampo, Randy Grayson, and Dax Lopez from DGL Attorneys At Law. Remember to rate and review GTP on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or your favorite platform. --- Case Details: "After a one-week trial, a jury returned a verdict of $31 million for the wrongful death of Israel Ramirez. Mr. Ramirez was living with his sister and brother-in-law at Avalon Mobile Home Park. Avalon had experienced multiple crimes in the years before Israel's death. While home from work for lunch, Israel and his sister saw a thief stealing his car from his home. Israel reacted quickly and confronted the thief, who shot and killed him. Avalon failed to have reasonable security in place to protect its residents from foreseeable crimes. At trial, Avalon tried to blame Israel for his own death, claiming he should not have reacted to the theft of his vehicle. The defense claimed Israel acted unreasonably for defending his property. Our firm introduced evidence that the husband of Avalon's property manager had left his own home to confront trespassers with a loaded gun on a previous occasion, contrasting the defense's blaming Israel while celebrating a different resident who survived a similar encounter. After hearing from Israel's family members, including his children, the jury determined the value of his lost life, pain and suffering and awarded $31 million against Avalon Mobile Home Park."

Virtually every state has, at some point, debated, denied or passed legislation regarding giving the tenants the "first option" to buy the property. They do this using faulty assumptions and absolutely zero understanding of how the "tenant-owned" process works. In this Mobile Home Park Mastery podcast we're going to explore the truth behind this issue and reveal what the government is apparently fully unaware of.

In the ever-changing world of real estate investing, asset classes rise and fall with shifting markets. Yet, according to real estate veteran Kevin Bupp, one asset continuously proves its value, resilience, and scalability: mobile home parks. On a recent episode of the Raising Private Money podcast with Jay Conner, The Private Money Authority, Kevin Bupp shared his extensive experience, including raising over $250 million in private capital, and revealed what makes mobile home parks a standout investment opportunity.The Unexpected Journey to Mobile Home ParksKevin Bupp's real estate journey began at age 19. Like many, he poured his energy into single-family rentals, building an impressive portfolio of 22 properties by his mid-20s. He tasted success but also felt the sting of the 2008 market crash, when he lost nearly everything.Reflecting on that pivotal period, Kevin noted how inefficiencies in managing scattered single-family rentals, compounded by the inefficiency of technology at the time, exposed his business to excessive risk. The crash forced him to reevaluate, rebuild smarter, and ultimately, seek out asset classes offering not just cash flow and efficiency, but also resilience. This search led Kevin to mobile home parks.Why Mobile Home Parks Offer Superior Investment Benefits Recession ResistanceOne of the central appeals of mobile home parks is their stability during economic downturns. Historically, demand for affordable housing rises when the economy struggles. Mobile home parks cater directly to this need, providing low-cost living options that are in constant demand, regardless of market cycles.As Kevin explained, even during periods when single-family home rents fell, mobile home parks remained relatively stable. Residents of these communities rarely leave; replacing or moving a mobile home is expensive, creating natural “stickiness” and consistent occupancy for park owners. Operational Efficiency & ScalabilityUnlike single-family rentals spread across a wide geographic area, each with its operational quirks, a well-managed mobile home park can comprise dozens or even hundreds of income-producing units on one property. Kevin cited his company's experience, scaling from a 34-lot park to properties holding over 700 sites, allowing rapid expansion without proportional increases in overhead.Operationally, many residents in mobile home parks own their homes and simply rent the lots, reducing maintenance costs and management headaches for the investor. This model allows investors to focus on the land and common infrastructure, not individual unit repairs. Barriers to Entry and Limited CompetitionMunicipalities often resist the development of new mobile home parks due to lingering social stigma and zoning challenges. This makes existing parks more valuable over time, insulating owners from the risk of market oversupply. As Kevin put it, many parks were built decades ago and are still held by the original owners. Buying these properties often means acquiring from “mom and pop” operators, frequently below market value. Attractive Financing and Creative Purchasing OptionsKevin detailed how long-term relationships with owners and a reputation for fair, reliable purchases lead to creative financing opportunities, including owner financing with favorable terms, further improving margins and investor returns.The Role of Private Money and Building Investor RelationshipsA core theme of Kevin's discussion was raising and leveraging private capital to fuel growth. He emphasized the importance of sharing real results transparently, whether in networking groups, social media, or his podcast, as a magnet for investor interest. Kevin's approach is simple: prove success, speak openly about your business, an

Investing in private real estate deals can be fraught with pitfalls, so you need to get to know who you're investing with before investing. In the past five years, many multifamily operators in particular, paid too much for properties and got the wrong kind of debt with too much leverage. Unfortunately, many investors have lost their principal as a result. At the same time, there are better multifamily opportunities to invest in now since the global financial crises, as many operators are being forced to sell. Hans Box, co-founder of Box Wilson Equity, has been successful investing in multifamily properties, industrial, and Mobile Home Parks.
