Seasonal income modeling
Nightly, weekly, monthly, and annual site revenue weighted by occupancy across the season rather than averaged flat.
RV park investing
RV Park Deal Analyzer for Campground and Resort Assets
RV parks trade like operating businesses wearing real estate clothing. Seasonality, site mix, and utility infrastructure decide the return long before the cap rate does.
Free account required. Three complimentary analyses, then membership for continued access.
What paid memberships unlock
Complimentary analyses include a verdict, plain-language why, key numbers, top three risks, basic next step, offer guidance when possible, and a one-page summary. The advanced features below require Investor Plus or Investor Pro, as applicable.
Site mix economics
Full hookup, partial, tent, and cabin sites priced separately, because each carries different rate and cost behavior.
Infrastructure exposure
Septic, water, and electrical capacity treated as capital risk with replacement cost weighed against purchase price.
Ancillary revenue
Store, laundry, propane, storage, and event income modeled as margin rather than assumed upside.
Occupancy is a season, not a number
A park at ninety percent for four months and twenty percent for eight is nothing like a park at fifty percent year round, even though the averages match. Debt service is monthly, so the analyzer looks for the months where coverage fails and reports that rather than the annual blend.
Infrastructure is where park deals quietly go wrong. A failing septic system or an electrical service that cannot support fifty-amp pedestals is a six-figure line item that no rate increase covers, so it is underwritten as basis, not maintenance.

Questions
- Do you analyze campgrounds and glamping properties?
- Yes. Campgrounds, glamping resorts, and mixed RV and cabin properties use the same site-mix model.
- How do you treat long-term tenants?
- Monthly and annual sites are modeled as stable base income with the transient premium priced separately.
- Can I compare a park against a rental portfolio?
- Yes. Run both and compare cash-on-cash and risk profile in the same format.
