Park managers
ParkNation
ParkNation is a Houston, Texas management company for mobile home parks and RV parks. It describes its service as full-service management tailored to small and medium parks, covering day-to-day operations, resident relations and the financial side of the asset.
Engagements start with a free consultation about the community's problems, after which the firm presents a customized plan and a roadmap for improving performance, then takes over day-to-day management. Its stated scope includes streamlining operations with technology-led systems, regulatory, financial and legal oversight, utility reimbursement, resident satisfaction, and identifying growth opportunities within the community.
ParkNation works with three kinds of owner: individuals who inherited or bought a single park, small capital firms and portfolio builders who want scalable third-party management, and home dealers who need transitions handled from home placement through move-in. The firm says its managers are CAM and CAPS certified, that its team has over 70 years of combined experience, and that it is trusted by owners nationwide. Its office is at 4740 Ingersoll, Suite 103, Houston.
