In today's episode, we have the pleasure of speaking with Don Spafford, an RV park expert, to continue our exploration of this unique and growing asset class. Whether you're an active or passive investor, you'll find valuable insights and tips to help you understand the ins and outs of RV parks and campgrounds. Don guides us through the underwriting process, discussing factors such as rentals, weeklies, seasonal, and more. He explains the importance of being conservative in projections and shares how to look at the past three to five years of data from an existing campground to make informed assumptions.

We also touch on other considerations such as nearby attractions and potential inclusions in the sale, like equipment or amenities. Furthermore, Don enlightens us on the emerging trends in the RV park industry, including upgrading electrical meters and accommodating the needs of younger generations who are embracing life on the road.
Finally, we discuss how to overcome investor fears and the importance of networking and building strong relationships with high net worth investors, family offices, and private equity firms.
