In this episode, we discuss the practice in grading mobile home parks with the "star" rating (usually one to five stars), which exists for no other type of commercial real estate. What makes this interesting is that almost no one who uses the rating knows what it means or where it comes from. Ask a broker, lender, or even large corporate operators what the difference is between a three-star and a five-star park, and you will likely get a muddled response referring to amenities, paved streets, or swimming pools, but no hard data about how the stars are assigned or who does it.

info_outlineIn this episode of The Mobile Home Park Investing Podcast, Kevin shares the mic with Paul Bradley, founder of ROC USA.
Paul started ROC USA to solve a big problem for homeowners living in mobile home communities. Traditionally, individual homeowners wouldn't be able to secure financing to purchase and collectively own the communities they live in.
With the help of Paul's nonprofit however, ROC USA helps residents form a co-op structure, secure funding from vetted sources, and provide leadership training and support to help co-op leaders effectively run their communities.
Enjoy this episode as Paul discusses the resilience of Resident-Owned Communities, and how ROC USA can provide a structure that allows an exit strategy for the private community owner.
