Floods, Famine and Pestilence: The Impact of Crisis on the Mobile Home Park Industry
Our recent event is on a topic that should interest almost everyone at the moment: the impact of disasters (natural and economic) on mobile home park investing. Sure, Covid-19 is the current disaster in America, but it’s not the only one we’ve endured over the last three decades (The Texas S&L Crisis, the Dot.com bust, earthquakes, fires, tornadoes, Katrina, Harvey, and the Great Recession). So if catastrophes are a part of American life, what is the impact on the mobile home park industry and how will these events impact your investment?
Your host is Frank Rolfe who, with his partner Dave Reynolds, is the 5th largest owner of mobile home parks in the U.S. But more importantly, he has lived through every crisis in modern American history, and seen 16% interest rates, every office building in Dallas posted for foreclosure, floodwaters, fires, the mobile home “chattel crisis” of 1999 – and everything else you can name. And he has seen first-hand the impact on mobile home parks from these issues.
