Mastering Mobile Home Park Investing

Mastering Mobile Home Park Investing with Ferd Niemann

Today, I’m excited to sit down with Ferd Niemann, an attorney by trade who’s turned what was a side gig investing in mobile home parks (MHPs) into a thriving business.

Ferd was making as much as 50% returns buying and flipping single-family homes, but he soon realized that there was an even bigger opportunity in alternative assets like MHPs. With 24 parks under his belt, Ferd has now become an authority in this niche investment space.

In our conversation, we geeked out on the specifics of mobile home park investments including key metrics, tax deferral strategies, financing options, and the strategic advantages this niche market can offer for individual investors operating on a smaller scale.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

✅ How Ferd became a successful mobile home park investor – plus specific strategies you can leverage to start building your own MHP portfolio.

✅ Why mobile home parks offer such a unique investment opportunity with far lower expense ratios compared to other real estate assets.

✅ The reason wealthy people put over 59% of their net worth in alternative investments like mobile home parks compared to only 15-25% in the stock market
