What we're looking for

Asset type

RV parks, RV resorts, campgrounds, glamping, MH/RV combination properties

Size

20+ sites. No upper limit — single parks and portfolios both

Location

Destination parks — a recreational draw within about 30 minutes: national park or forest, state park, lake, river or reservoir, coast, ski area, or a named attraction

Price

$500K – $5M per asset. Larger via portfolio or JV

Price per site

Up to $55,000

History

Two full seasons of operating history

Seasonal parks

Yes — we underwrite off actual trailing-twelve figures with the closed months in them, so seasonality is priced rather than penalised

Condition

Stabilised or distressed. No occupancy floor

On condition

Deferred maintenance, low occupancy and messy books are not disqualifiers. They are frequently the reason we are interested. What we need is for the gap between what a park earns and what it should earn to be explainable and fixable — absentee management, no dynamic pricing, no reservation system, utilities not recovered. Those are our value-add, not our objection.

Target Markets

Where we are looking

South Central

Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas

Southeast

Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee, Alabama

That is where we are actively prospecting — but it is a focus, not a fence. If you have a strong park outside those states, send it. We will give you a straight answer either way.

Seller Fit

Situations that fit us well

Owner is managing a tax event and wants to defer rather than take a lump sum

Owner has no clean tax returns or financials, and conventional buyers keep falling out

Owner wants monthly income rather than a single cheque

Owner wants personal guarantees released more than the last dollar of price

Estate, legacy or family land situations where timeline matters more than price

A deal that already failed once in due diligence with another buyer

Deal Structures

If the asset fits, structure follows

We underwrite the asset first. Structure is what we shape around the seller once we understand what they actually need — it is never how we make a deal work that otherwise would not. When a seller does want flexibility, here is what is open to us.

Seller financing / seller carry

Our preferred structure, including carry behind new senior debt where that releases a seller’s personal guarantees.

Master lease with a defined purchase path

Particularly where existing debt is not assumable — which on park debt is most of the time.

Assumption

Of genuinely assumable existing notes.

Installment sales

Where the seller is managing a tax event.

JV / partnership

With owners who want to retain upside.

Conventional cash

Where the deal warrants it.

We are firm on economics and flexible on structure — not the other way round. On carry-back deals we will normally ask for an appraisal contingency at the balloon, which protects both sides and has never been the thing that killed a deal for us.

FAQ

Common questions

What counts as a destination?+

A recreational draw within roughly 30 minutes that brings people for the night — a national park, forest, monument or recreation area, a state park, a lake, river or reservoir, the coast, a ski area, or a named attraction. Workforce, contractor or extended-stay demand alongside that is a real plus; it just cannot be the whole story.

Do you look at expansion potential?+

Yes, and it often decides between two comparable parks — usable acreage for additional sites, land that could carry cabins, park models or glamping units, ancillary income like storage, a marina or events, or an adjacent parcel that could be bought. It is not a requirement: a well-located park that is simply under-managed is very much of interest. But if there is room to grow, tell us early. It usually helps the price we can justify.

Will you buy a seasonal park that closes for the winter?+

Yes. We underwrite off the actual trailing twelve months with the closed months in them rather than annualising a peak season, so a seasonal park is priced on what it really earns. A year-round revenue leg — annual sites, storage, cabins or an MH section — makes a seasonal park materially stronger for us.

Why are lagoons an absolute no?+

A wastewater lagoon is a permitted, regulated operation with six-figure failure modes and a closure obligation that outlives ownership. The same applies to park-owned treatment plants. Conventional septic fields and private wells are fine, subject to inspection — those are equipment, not operations.

How fast can you move?+

A straight yes, no, or specific question within a day or two of receiving a listing. A call before any LOI, and an LOI within a few days of that call. Proof of funds on request, normally the same day.

Do you require exclusivity?+

No. We do not tie brokers up in exclusivity, and we are straightforward about co-broke.

Have a park that fits?

  1. 01

    Send the listing — address, pad or site count, asking price, and whatever financials exist. A rent roll and T-12 if you have them, but we will look without.

  2. 02

    A straight answer, fast. Yes, no, or a specific question. We will tell you when something is not for us rather than going quiet.

  3. 03

    A call before an LOI. We would rather understand what the seller actually wants first — an LOI written blind helps nobody.

  4. 04

    LOI follows the call, normally within a few days — with proof of funds alongside it if you want it up front, rather than after you have had to ask.

One thing we will always ask on a first call: whether there is existing debt on the property, and if so the balance, the rate, the year it was written, and whether it is assumable. It often changes what we can offer, usually in the seller’s favour.

We do not tie brokers up in exclusivity, and we are straightforward about co-broke.
