State cap-rate guide

Florida RV park cap rates

Florida working cap-rate assumptions are 7.5%-9.5%. Stronger parks can price tighter when revenue is durable, books are clean, utilities are documented, and expansion risk is low.

Working cap-rate range7.5%-9.5%

Florida parks can benefit from snowbird demand, coastal recreation, and long operating seasons. Buyers will still discount exposure to insurance, storms, deferred utilities, and park-model concentration.

What buyers will underwrite first

Florida valuation depends heavily on seasonal revenue quality, lot rent durability, utility responsibility, insurance costs, and whether the park can operate through summer occupancy softness.

Licensing, utilities, and transfer friction

Florida has public health rules for mobile home, lodging, and recreational vehicle parks. Diligence should verify license status and transfer expectations early.

Brokered listing vs. private direct offer

A direct sale can be attractive when the owner wants a private conversation, a controlled diligence group, and fewer guest/staff rumors during the process.

Tax planning before the LOI

Owners comparing a private sale with a brokered sale should model broker fees, closing timing, price allocation, and 1031 replacement-property pressure before choosing a path.
