Long-term Investors in Mobile Home Parks (MHPs) and RV Parks (RVPs)
Improving Affordable Housing Across the Southeastern U.S.
Who We Are
Alden Capital is a privately held real estate investment company focused on owning and operating cash-flowing Mobile Home Park (MHP) and RV Park (RVP) communities.
We are long-term, buy-and-hold owners. Our goal is to create clean, safe, and reliable communities for working families, retirees, and long-term RV residents, while generating stable, tax-efficient returns for our investment partners.
We believe well-run manufactured housing and RV communities are a critical part of the affordable housing solution in the Southeast.
What We Invest In
We acquire and operate:
Mobile Home Parks (MHPs) – primarily family and workforce housing communities.
RV Parks (RVPs) – long-term and extended-stay RV communities that serve traveling workers and retirees.
Typical deal profile:
Located in small to mid-sized metros across the Southeastern U.S.
Stable or growing demand drivers (employment, healthcare, education, industry).
Value-add opportunities through operational improvements, infill, and light capital upgrades.
Utilities and Infrastructure of all kinds. Our communities have well water, public water, public sewer, septic tanks, lagoons, and more.
Our Investment Approach
Long-Term Hold Periods
We aim to own assets for the long run, compounding value through steady operations rather than quick flips.
Operational Excellence
Tight, consistent management, clear systems, and on-site accountability. We focus on occupancy, collections, expenses, and resident experience.
Thoughtful Capital Planning
Targeted capital improvements that matter to residents: roads, utilities, lighting, home quality, and basic amenities—without over-building or over-leveraging..
Disciplined Underwriting
Conservative assumptions, focus on downside protection, and a strong emphasis on cash flow and resilience through cycles.
Why Mobile Home & RV Communities?
Real Need
A growing shortage of quality, affordable housing across the U.S. Affordability has grown from a general industry topic to a burning need in all regions. We are actively working to address this issue.
Durable Demand
Working families, retirees, and traveling workers need stable, reasonably-priced places to live. We are able to provide great housing options to meet this demand at a price point that is well below standard residential and commercial construction price points.
Operational Upside
Many parks are under-managed or under-invested, creating opportunities for professional operators. All of our property management is in-house, enabling us to specialize and generate improved cashflow and returns. We do not use 3rd-party managers for any of our properties and never will.
Tax Advantages
Both RV Parks (RVPs) and Mobile Home Parks (MHPs) offer some very unique tax advantages that most commercial real estate cannot tap into. For example, RVPs and MHPs have improved ability to leverage cost segregation accounting and accelerated depression.
Expansion Upside
Many of our Parks offer the ability to expand incrementally (e.g. adding 20 more lots). This enables us to grow Net Operating Income even further. We are experts in MHPs and RVPs, so we know exactly how to build out the required infrastructure to limit the capital needed to achieve the expansion.
Geographic Focus: Southeastern U.S.
We focus on markets we know well and can reach easily. Our current footprint and target markets are concentrated in the Southeastern United States, with an emphasis on:
Strong employment and education anchors
Reasonable regulatory environments
Growing or stable population trends
This regional concentration allows us to:
Leverage local market knowledge
Share operational best practices across properties
Build scale with vendors, lenders, and on-the-ground teams
