About Julian Estates

Julian Estates is a 15-pad manufactured housing community located on 8.83 acres in Julian, Pennsylvania, just minutes from State College—home to Pennsylvania State University (Penn State). Originally developed in the mid-1960s, the property is zoned for manufactured housing and self-storage, offering investors both a stable income base and the flexibility for potential expansion or mixed-use redevelopment.

The current owner has held the property for three years and is now repositioning assets, presenting a clean, stabilized investment in a strong Central Pennsylvania market supported by a worldclass university and robust local economy.

Julian is part of the greater State College metro area, a region anchored by Penn State University, one of the largest and most influential economic drivers in Pennsylvania. The university employs tens of thousands of faculty and staff and attracts more than 46,000 students annually, creating consistent housing demand and an extremely tight rental market.

The high cost of traditional housing in and around State College—where average home prices and apartment rents have surged in recent years—has made affordable housing alternatives like manufactured home communities increasingly valuable and sought after.

In addition to Penn State’s stabilizing influence, the surrounding region benefits from strong healthcare, education, and technology sectors, along with retail and service industries that cater to the university population. The property’s proximity to U.S. Route 322 provides quick access to downtown State College, regional employers, shopping, dining, and the State College Airport.

Julian Estates spans 8.83 acres and consists of 15 total pads, all of which are currently occupied. The community is zoned specifically for manufactured housing and self-storage, allowing for future development or income diversification. The park was originally constructed in the mid-1960s, and while a portion of the property lies within a Class A flood zone, the current owner does not carry flood insurance.

The property does not have an on-site manager, though it employs a maintenance technician, and ownership notes there is a tenant who could serve as a potential on-site manager if desired.

Of the 15 pads, 12 homes are tenant-owned (TOH) and 3 are park-owned (POH), including one double-wide unit. The average rent for park-owned homes is $800 per month, with the last increase implemented on October 1, 2024. The average pad rent for tenant-owned homes is $400 per month, also last raised on October 1, 2024. The owner holds clear titles to all park owned homes. As of now, one POH is vacant but is expected to be rented prior to closing.

There are no homes held for back taxes, and no tenants are currently delinquent on rent. The park utilizes annual leases, and tenants pay via Cash App, Venmo, or check. The community offers off-street parking for residents and operates with 100% occupancy, providing a stable, predictable income stream.

The park is serviced by private well water and private septic, both of which have been improved by the current owner during his tenure. Garbage service is provided and paid for by the park. The underground water and sewer lines are believed to be PVC, and each pad features a 100-amp electrical pedestal. Tenants are directly billed by their respective electric and gas providers, and no utilities are back-billed by ownership.

The roads throughout the park are gravel and maintained by the park’s maintenance contractor. Tenants are responsible for mowing their own spaces, while the owners maintain the common areas. In the event of significant snowfall, the park utilizes a local contractor for snow removal.

Since acquiring the property three years ago, the current owner has invested in meaningful infrastructure upgrades, including improvements to the plumbing, well, and well house. These upgrades have strengthened the park’s operational reliability and reduced maintenance exposure.

When asked what his next priorities would be if he continued ownership, the seller responded, “Paving the roads and expanding the storage units.” This provides a clear blueprint for the next owner to enhance property value and expand ancillary income.

Julian Estates represents a turnkey, fully occupied manufactured housing community in one of Pennsylvania’s most desirable and resilient markets. Its location near Penn State University and the State College economic hub ensures consistent housing demand and a broad tenant base, while the area’s high cost of conventional housing further supports strong occupancy and rent growth potential.

With stable collections, upgraded infrastructure, and dual-use zoning that allows for self-storage expansion, Julian Estates offers both immediate returns and long-term upside for an investor seeking durable cash flow in a supply-constrained market.

The owner does not have any assumable loans, and no seller financing or Morby Stack proposals will be considered.

3 Park Central PA Portfolio

$3.5M
East FreedomBlair County

The MHP Value Team is pleased to offer for sale the Central PA Portfolio, a 147-site manufactured housing portfolio consisting of three separate communities located in Blair County, PA. The properties are currently underutilized, featuring 50 lot renters, 5 park owned home renters, 21 vacant POHs, 5 Vacant apartments and 66 vacant lots with infrastructure. The portfolio presents a rare opportunity to acquire a below-replacement-cost portfolio, offered at $3,500,000, significantly under the cost to develop new infrastructure and entitle comparable sites in today's market. The property is supported by existing infrastructure and layout, allowing an investor to execute a phased infill strategy while minimizing entitlement risk. The portfolio currently generates approximately $422,855 in gross annual income and $120,378 in net operating income. Offered at $3,500,000, the asset is being marketed at a cap rate of 3.50% for land operations with major upside through operational improvements and rent growth, as lot rents are nearly $100 below market. The investment strategy for the portfolio involves, infilling vacant lots, and rehabbing and selling Park-Owned Homes to tenants in order to reduce maintenance expenses. With approximately 55.1% physical occupancy, a new investor has the opportunity to significantly increase cash flow through infill while acquiring immediate scale in a growing regional market. From an investment standpoint, the portfolio is well-positioned to capitalize on growing demand for affordable housing in Central Pennsylvania, as the Johnstown MSA benefits from migration out of New York and New Jersey and a widening housing affordability gap. The business plan assumes a phased lease-up of vacant pads through tenant-owned homes or park-owned inventory, driving NOI growth as occupancy increases. With low going-in occupancy and significant upside, the portfolio presents a compelling opportunity for investors seeking a scalable, high-yield asset with strong fundamentals, with a clear path to value creation and projected returns exceeding a 25%+ IRR in year 5.

Capricorn MHP

$1.8M
ClearfieldClearfield County

ERA One Source Realty is pleased to present an exclusive opportunity to acquire a three-park manufactured housing community portfolio totaling 61 pads across north-central Pennsylvania. The portfolio comprises Saegertown MHC (Crawford County), T&J MHC (Centre County), and Capricorn MHC (Clearfield County) — three cash-flowing communities offered together as a single portfolio acquisition. The portfolio generates approximately $22,877 in gross monthly income and offers a private investor immediate scale in one of the most resilient asset classes in commercial real estate. Manufactured housing communities have demonstrated consistent occupancy, low tenant turnover, and strong rent collections through economic cycles, making them a preferred vehicle for wealth preservation and passive income. Each park is served by municipal water and sewer, reducing capital risk associated with private utility systems. Saegertown currently bundles water, sewer, and trash into lot rent — presenting an immediate value-add opportunity through utility billback implementation, which alone could meaningfully improve NOI without any physical capital investment. Additional upside exists across all three parks through pet fee programs, ancillary income optimization, and modest lot rent growth in a market where rents remain well below state and national MHC averages. Beyond the core pad income, Saegertown includes a 15-space RV park and a vacant commercial building fronting a high-traffic intersection at US Routes 6 and 19, offering a buyer additional income-producing potential. The portfolio also includes a mix of tenant-owned homes, park-owned rentals, and rent-to-own arrangements — providing revenue diversity and a path to home sales proceeds as units turn. At a combined asking price of $1,800,000, the portfolio is offered at approximately $29,500 per pad — an attractive basis relative to current transaction pricing for stabilized MHC assets. This is a rare opportunity for a private investor or family office to establish or expand a manufactured housing platform across three counties with a single closing.
