In Part 2 of this four-part masterclass, we have four great real estate investors who are invested in two different asset classes: Self-storage vs. Mobile homes. On the Self-Storage side, we have Scott Meyers and Michael W. Wagner and on the Mobile Home side, we have Kevin Bupp and Ryan Narus. These four guys battle it out and break down which asset class is best in areas of Acquisitions, Dispositions, Financing, Management, and Construction! This episode dives into dispositions and financing. Btw, all donations that come from this episode will go to fund We Are Graces, a charity in Guatemala that’s close to Alex’s heart.

TWEETABLES:
“There are only approximately 42,000–49,000 mobile home parks in existence. It’s a niche asset class.”
“The asset class with the lowest default rate is self-storage, historically, because we do well during good times and very well in a bad economy.”
“Mobile home parks on average are trading at sub six caps, even in secondary and tertiary markets. The demand is outpacing self-storage.”
“Storage is the new iPhone and mobile home parks are the fax machine.”
