SMK is excited to present a premier opportunity to invest in a well-established and rapidly growing portfolio of Mobile Home Parks and Self-Storage facilities, in partnership with a repeat operating partner.
This opportunity is an ideal fit for accredited investors looking for income and growth through a diversified portfolio that offers:
- Immediate cash flow from day one
- Tax advantages with passive losses in 2024 and 2025
- Diversification across 17 properties in 10 states, providing lower risk and steady returns
- Low leverage for reduced risk and stability
This mobile storage portfolio offers a recession-resistant investment designed to deliver a compelling blend of income and growth. The fund was initially launched in early 2023, and SMK made its first investment into the portfolio by Q3 2023. We have remained an active investor for over 12 months, benefiting from performance that has consistently met projections alongside steady quarterly distributions.
As of September 2024, the portfolio has grown to own 17 properties across 10 states. Our operating partners have a robust acquisition pipeline and plan to expand the portfolio throughout 2025, adding new assets that will enhance diversification and provide additional value for investors.
We believe now is an ideal time to capitalize on this investment, as the portfolio has already implemented value-add initiatives and boasts a proven track record of success. In addition, SMK has negotiated preferable terms for the pooling of capital within our group.
Why Invest in Mobile Home Parks and Self-Storage?
At SMK, we’ve been successfully investing in these asset classes for over 10 years, delivering consistent returns for our investors.
Here’s why we continue to believe in them:
- Recession Resistance: Mobile home parks and self-storage have proven to be recession-resistant, consistently outperforming other real estate sectors during economic downturns.
- Strong Demand: As housing costs rise, mobile home parks offer a critical affordable housing solution, while the demand for self-storage is growing due to downsizing and the need for additional space.
- Limited Supply: Zoning restrictions limit the development of new mobile home parks, ensuring strong demand, while self-storage benefits from consistent tenant retention due to convenience and low costs.
- Reliable Cash Flow: These assets provide stable, predictable cash flow with long-term tenants and flexible lease structures, allowing for regular rent increases.
Why Now?
Now is an ideal time to invest, as prices for mobile home parks and self-storage facilities have dropped, creating opportunities to acquire these assets at attractive valuations.
Despite the volatility in commercial real estate over the past few years, these assets have continued to perform well, offering consistent cash flow and stability.
This combination of lower acquisition costs and proven resilience makes this an excellent time to consider an investment.
PORTFOLIO HIGHLIGHTS:
- ~92% of assets sourced off-market, direct to seller
- Conservative leverage has been utilized which is reflected in the portfolio’s low LTV of 35.1% (as of 9/2024)
- Several properties have been acquired with all cash, providing an opportunity to increase future investor returns with the use of a new $50m credit facility with Key Bank
- Four self-storage facilities were recently refinanced with 10-year fixed-rate debt. Thanks to a 31% rise in total revenue and a 50% increase in NOI since the acquisition, our operating partners were able to withdraw $3 million in proceeds
- As a result of buying right and implementing value-add strategies, two mobile home communities were recently appraised for 45% higher than the initial acquisition cost
