The process
Four steps from first conversation to cash at closing
Selling a campground should not take nine months and a public listing. Here is exactly what happens when you sell your Virginia RV park to us, and what we need from you at each stage.
The pricing in step two is regional. Before you start, it helps to read how we underwrite your part of the state on the Virginia markets page — or jump straight to your area: Shenandoah Valley, Virginia Beach, Williamsburg, or Chincoteague. Want the math first? Run your numbers through the RV park value calculator.
- 01
Tell us about the park
Day 1 · about 60 secondsSite count, city or county, and roughly what the park collects in a year. That is enough to start. If you have a P&L, rent roll, or tax bill handy it sharpens the number, but nothing is required up front and nothing you send leaves our acquisitions team.
- 02
Get a written offer with the math
Within 72 hoursWithin 72 hours you receive a valuation range and an all-cash offer price, plus the assumptions behind it: normalized expenses, the cap rate we applied for your Virginia submarket, and what we assumed about utilities and deferred capital. If our number is low, you will see exactly which line item caused it.
- 03
Short, respectful diligence
Weeks 1–3If you accept, we sign a purchase agreement and spend two to three weeks confirming utilities, permits, environmental basics, and your revenue. One site visit, scheduled around your operations. We do not interview your guests, we do not put up a sign, and we do not renegotiate over things we already priced in.
- 04
Close on your calendar
Day 30–45, or your dateWe close at a Virginia title company with our own funds. Standard timeline is 30 to 45 days, but we can close in two weeks if you need speed — or wait until after peak season if a fall handoff is cleaner for you and your seasonal tenants.
What we'll ask for
The short diligence list
You do not need any of this to get an offer — only to close.
- Trailing 12 months of revenue and expenses
- Current rent roll or site occupancy summary
- Utility setup: water, sewer or septic, electric metering
- Any county permits, conditional use approvals, or site plans
- Survey and most recent property tax assessment
- List of park-owned rentals, cabins, or storage income

Questions about the selling process
- What do you need from me to make an offer?
- Location, site count and hook-up mix, roughly what the park grossed last year, and anything you already know about the water and septic systems. If you have profit and loss statements, they sharpen the number, but they are not required to start.
- How long until I get a number?
- A written offer within 72 hours of receiving basic property information. If something in the property makes it a poor fit, we say so quickly rather than leaving you waiting.
- How many times will you visit the park?
- Once, scheduled around your operations. We are not running a listing, so there are no repeat showings, no open houses, and no stream of tire-kickers walking your sites during the season.
- Is the offer contingent on financing?
- No. We buy with our own capital, so there is no lender approval, no appraisal contingency, and no last-minute repricing because an underwriter changed its view of campground assets.
- Can I stay involved after the sale?
- If you want to. Some sellers hand over the keys at closing and walk away, others stay on through a transition season or keep a residence on site. Both are negotiable in the contract.
