Mobile Home Park Investing Videos

What’s the best way to gain an advantage on 99.9% of park buyers and owners? The MHU Investor’s Club, of course. Your membership – priced ridiculously low and not increased in over a decade at $99 per month – gets you a stunning array of products and services that are priceless. In this short video, Frank talks about why MHU Investor’s Club should be a part of your strategy to succeed in “trailer parks”.

Only about twice a year we hold a special event called the Masterclass in which around ten participants meet at Frank’s dining room in his historic home in Sainte Genevieve, Missouri for two solid days of training on the correct way to identify, evaluate, negotiate, perform due diligence on, renegotiate, finance, turn-around and operate mobile home parks. Sure it’s a grueling 12 hours a day in which all meals are served right at the table as the information continues unabated. And the amount of information presented is unheard of in such a span of time. But you’ll come away from the event with more knowledge than 99.9% of all park buyers and owners – and that includes even some of the largest private equity groups. In this short video Frank discusses the history of the Masterclass and why it might be perfect for you on November 7th and 8th.

The stock market bubble is about to pop at any moment – and the midterms are more than likely goingto be the pin to do it. But your investments do not have to be at risk if you stick with a basic commoditythat has highly restricted supply: mobile home parks. In this short video, Frank Rolfe explores how“trailer parks” are safer than any other investment option in a nation that is near collapse.

In this short video, Frank Rolfe explains why the economic rule of market efficiency has a significant impact on making money in mobile home parks. At a time when AI has created an environment in which there is perfect information flow on the value of stocks, bonds, and most every investment, mobile home parks benefit from the lack of knowledge on the industry by the majority of Americans.

In this short video, Frank Rolfe explores the reasons behind the office building’s fall from grace (with alarge share currently upside down on their mortgages) compared to mobile home parks, which have lessthan 1% of total loans in distress.

Major Hillard went to Boot Camp three times – he does everything in a big way. And when it comes to buying mobile home parks, he likes big turnarounds because he’s learned those offer the greatest profitability. In this fact-based and fast-paced discussion, Major tells us how he finds his deals, finances them, what he looks for, and where he likes to buy. He’ll also offer his thoughts on a range of related topics including lot rent increases, the value equation for residents, and even the future of the industry.

In this short video Frank exposes ten financial facts that will change your investing outlook and point you in the correct direction (which is the exact opposite of what the financial planning community tells you). If you want to actually improve your financial security, then these ten facts will need to become your mantra. Otherwise, as you’ll see, you’re screwed.

When you take out income taxes and inflation devaluation, a 10% rate of return really doesn’t get you anywhere (and that’s what stocks produce). Even worse, CDs and bonds don’t even cover taxes and inflation. To build wealth you have to hit 20%, just as Warren Buffett did. And the only way to hit that today is with mobile home parks.

In Medieval England, a successful “moat” was considered to be 50’ wide. At that width it was impossible for a knight-in-armor to cross and attack the castle walls. But the American mobile home park has a much bigger “moat”. It’s 50 years wide. That’s how many years it’s been since virtually every city and town in America banned new mobile home parks from being built. And that “moat” makes trailer parks the most protected asset class in real estate.

Ali is a resident of Northern California and has been in the park business his entire life, as a member of a seven-generation family real estate office. And he is as bullish on the industry today as when he toured his first park. In this interview, Frank Rolfe talks with Ali about his portfolio, lessons learned, and visions for the future. As usual, the information is fact-based and fast moving.

In this short video, you will learn everything you need to know about mobile home park investing and why it offers superior returns – and lower risk – than all other investment types. At a time when stocks are clearly overvalued, CDs are only treading water with inflation, apartment loans are in default on 8% of all properties, and office, retail, and lodging sectors are collapsing due to the internet, mobile home parks offer a refreshing success story that is completely contrarian and with the deepest “moat” in all of real estate.

It was recently announced that Brandon Turner, of Bigger Pockets fame, lost $15 million on a single apartment complex. In fact, apartment loan defaults now stand at around 8% in the U.S., while mobile home park loan defaults are less than 1%. In this short video, Frank Rolfe explains the key drivers that make apartment and mobile home park loan default ratios so different, as well as predictions for the future of these two asset classes.

Inflation just broke 4%, and that means every CD and T-Bill you own is not even covering the rate of inflation. And the stock market, despite a historical 10% average return, is also barely covering inflation when you subtract your income taxes. To get anywhere in investing, you have to hit around 20%. Warren Buffett hit that average with the stock market at one time, but those days are over. The ONLY option to hit 20% going forward is through “alternative” investments, with mobile home parks being your best bet.

Bonus Depreciation, the ability to write off up to 100% in the first year via cost segregation accounting, was permanently restored in 2025. Little did anyone realize that mobile home parks are, by far, the biggest winners from this, as studies began to show that a typical mobile home park has 3 to 4 times the amount of bonus depreciation than any other real estate sector.

If you're like us, when you buy a mobile home park from mom-and-pop, they stick you with a handful of park-owned rental homes that need renovating. Or maybe you're trying to fill vacant lots, but new homes are too expensive and buyers can't get approved, so used homes are the only path forward.

The MHU Investors Club was developed by Brandon about a decade ago with one goal: to provide everything that Boot Camp attendees kept requesting after the class. And those were reasonable requests. It's a continuum of information, support, and resources that you simply can't get anywhere else in this industry.

If there's any industry that's properly positioned for America's megatrends, it's the mobile home park industry. A "megatrend" is a term coined by Jon Naisbitt back in the 1980s. It means there are forces in the world so powerful that you don't dare bet against them. You want to be swimming with the current, not fighting it.

Training a new mobile home park manager is not anyone's idea of a good time. It never has been. That's exactly why we developed our Mobile Home Park Manager Training Course. We built it like a defensive driving course. There's a module, then another module, then another, and to advance from one to the next, your manager has to pass a test. Just like defensive driving. We want your managers to know everything they need to know about the industry. We want them to succeed. But we don't want you spending two days driving around in your car or sitting in person going over basic background material.

There’s no better way to learn about the mobile home park business than talking to real owners about how they got into the industry, where they find and finance their properties, and their lessons learned. And we explore all that and more on this discussion with Miles Noland from Treeside Capital. He and his partner went to the Mobile Home Park Investor’s Boot Camp around 2020 and have now purchased over 1,000 lots – quite an accomplishment considering all that happened during that time, including the eviction moratorium and the eleven straight interest rate hikes by Jerome Powell and the Fed.

When we started the Affordable Housing Summit series nearly twenty years ago, we had a very simple premise: what if we could explore the current status and projections going forward in each category of the mobile home park business? And, given that, shouldn’t everyone who attends be able to come away with at least a few game-changer ideas that make –or save – everyone who attends thousands of dollars?

It is remarkable that Andrew Cramer has done 37 mobile home park transactions over the past 15 years, with 20 parks still in his portfolio. But what’s more impressive is that he accomplished this in one of the most competitive markets in the U.S.: the states of Washington and Oregon.

The New Year is here and 2026 has the potential to be one of the industry’s finest on a number of fronts. In this video Frank Rolfe will explore his Top Ten predictions for the mobile home park industry including both good and bad byproducts of these revelations. If you are looking for timely observations of what to expect in 2026 – so you can plan accordingly – then this video should get you started.

Christmas may be over, but there's still one important item left on your list: the gift of being an investment pro in the category of "trailer parks". The Mobile Home Park Investor's Boot Camp is the gold-standard of the industry if you want to know the correct way to identify, evaluate, negotiate, perform due diligence on, renegotiate, finance, turn-around and operate mobile home parks. And the next Boot Camp is coming up on January 9th to 11th.

Making 20%+ cash-on-cash returns is easier than you think. You can't make it in stocks – that's why Warren Buffett is sitting on over $300 billion in cash since he knows the market is horribly overvalued. And you can't make it in Treasuries and CDs paying around 4%. To make big yields you have to look to "alternative investments" and mobile home parks definitely rank as the best of these.

In this short video Frank Rolfe discusses the top three reasons to buy a mobile home park, as well as many facts and figures regarding historical park performance vs. other investment alternatives. At a time in which American markets have never been more unstable, mobile home parks offer a safe haven that most investors don’t realize.
