The Art of Passive Income

What You Need To Know About Mobile Home Park Investing


Listen Later

Our guest today is Frank Rolfe, founder of MobileHomeUniversity.com. Frank has been an investor in the mobile home park business for 23 years and is ranked the 5th largest mobile home park owner in the country.

You may remember Frank from The Best Passive Income Model Podcast where he appeared twice on and once on an old Coffee Talk episode, but this is his first appearance on The Art of Passive Income podcast.

Mobile homes are one of the most affordable housing options available. But because of their bad reputation, nobody wants them in their backyard so federal regulations were put into place… which is one of the reasons why they appeal to Frank.

Listen in as Frank talks about the early days and how billboards led him to purchase his first park, Glenhaven, on an impulse buy. That park was losing 2k a month, but Frank saw an opportunity.

The guys take a deep look at:

  • Government regulations and supply & demand
  • The key to the industry
  • Mismanagement and seller financing
  • The deal makers and the deal breakers

Then, Frank breaks down a typical acquisition and talks about the fact that the mobile home industry is the only real estate sector that doesn’t get subsidies.

Frank also addresses the controversy behind the Oliver North rant which had called him out, and so much more on today’s episode of The Art of Passive Income!
