Hi everyone!

Today we’re going to speak about a little-known, but increasingly attractive niche that, in recent years, has really started to take off again, especially in the United States: manufactured housing.

In my conversation with our featured guest expert, you’re going to learn such things as (1) how the manufactured housing industry has evolved over the decades, (2) why there is an enormous supply and demand challenge in the industry today, and (3) what that bodes for this industry’s future.

More importantly, you’ll learn about the many opportunities our guest believes the manufactured housing industry offers you—whether you are a home buyer, property owner, investor, lender, white or blue-collar worker, or builder. Finally, in true Looking Forward: Opportunities fashion, you’ll also get some tips on what steps you can take to begin to capitalize on one or more of these opportunities.

To share all this great information with us, we’ve brought on an outstanding guest expert in the manufactured housing industry.  He’s Glenn Esterson. Glenn Esterson is a First Vice President with Marcus & Millichap. He is laser-focused on brokering manufactured housing communities on a national level, transacting in 25+ states since 2020. Glenn has over 20 years’ experience in the industry. He’s also a former park owner himself.

Glenn and his team have sold hundreds of parks nationwide and continue to be one of the industry’s most active broker teams. In 2021, the Esterson MHC Team sold over 70 manufactured housing & Recreational vehicle parks across the United States, representing a total sales volume of over $265 million.

Glenn is also the author of "The Mobile Home Park Manifesto: Ethical and Profitable Investing in Non-institutional Grade, Land-lease Communities."
