Diversification in Action: Why Investors Pair Multifamily with Self-Storage, RV, and Mobile Home Parks

Diversification in Action: Why Investors Pair Multifamily with Self-Storage, RV, and Mobile Home Parks

August 26, 20252 min read

When most people think about real estate investing, apartment buildings (multifamily) are usually the first thing that comes to mind — and for good reason. They’re stable, proven, and there’s always demand for housing.

But putting all your money into one type of investment can leave you exposed. Just like you wouldn’t balance on a one-legged stool, you don’t want your portfolio standing on just one “leg.” That’s where diversification comes in. By adding other types of real estate — like self-storage, RV parks, and mobile home communities — you create more balance, resilience, and profit potential in your portfolio.


Why Add These Asset Classes?
Savvy investors expand into niche asset classes to increase cash flow, reduce risk, and boost returns. One key advantage is that expense-to-income ratios vary by asset type, which affects profit margins. Here’s a closer look:

🏪 Self-Storage: More Profit per Dollar
Expenses typically run 35–40% of income, compared to 50–55% for multifamily. That means for every dollar collected, more stays in the investor’s pocket. Storage is also low-maintenance, and demand remains steady — people always need space, whether they’re moving, downsizing, or decluttering.

🚐 RV Parks: Cash Flow Meets Lifestyle
With flexible lifestyles on the rise, RV parks are seeing growing demand. Expenses are generally lower than multifamily, making them easier to operate while generating strong cash flow.

🏡 Mobile Home Communities: Stable, Affordable, Profitable
Residents usually own their homes and rent only the land, creating stable, long-term income. With expenses around 35–40% of income, mobile home communities offer higher profit margins than multifamily and are a resilient, cash-flow-generating asset.


Barriers to Entry = More Opportunity for Us
Not many investors feel comfortable acquiring or managing self-storage or mobile home parks. These unfamiliar asset classes create natural barriers to entry, leaving room for experienced operators like us. Since 2021, we’ve been successfully investing in diversified assets — multifamily, storage, mobile home communities, and more — giving us the expertise to navigate opportunities that newer investors may hesitate to pursue.


The Big Picture
When one asset class slows down, another can pick up the slack. That’s the power of diversification: it smooths out highs and lows, keeps your money working, and positions you to capture opportunities across different market cycles.

Ready to Explore What’s Possible?

Whether you're new to investing or expanding your portfolio, we’re here to help. We’ll align your goals with the right mix of multifamily, self-storage, RV parks, and mobile home communities — and make diversification work for you.

👉 Reach out now to start the conversation — and see how your investment strategy can grow stronger through diversification.
