The MHP Owner’s Exit Planning Guide: Keep More of What You Built

Operators who plan their exit years in advance almost always keep more after taxes than those who decide to sell and call their CPA the same week. Here’s the timeline and strategy.

  • The 5-year pre-exit timeline — year-by-year actions for cost segregation, entity cleanup, book preparation, and 1031 replacement property identification
  • Side-by-side comparison of every exit structure: taxable sale, installment sale, 1031 exchange, DSTs, opportunity zone reinvestment, and charitable remainder trusts
  • The depreciation recapture problem most park owners don’t see coming — and how to model your real after-tax proceeds before you list

What’s Inside

8 Sections That Cover Every Exit Scenario

Why MHP Exits Are Different

Three layers of tax exposure that stack on a park sale: capital gains, depreciation recapture (Section 1245 and 1250), and state income tax — and why each requires a different strategy.

The 5-Year Pre-Exit Timeline

Year-by-year checklist from assessment through final positioning — what to do in each year and why the sequence matters more than any single decision.

Understanding Your Tax Exposure

How to calculate your real after-tax proceeds: capital gains, Section 1245 personal property recapture, unrecaptured Section 1250 gain, and state tax — before you sign anything.

Exit Structure Options Compared

Taxable sale, installment sale, 1031 exchange, Delaware Statutory Trusts, opportunity zone reinvestment, and charitable remainder trusts — side by side on the metrics that matter.

1031 Exchange: MHP-Specific Traps

The personal property problem for POH-heavy parks, the 45/180 day rules, boot mechanics, and how to avoid the single most common mistake MHP sellers make in exchanges.

Entity Cleanup Before Sale

What buyers find in due diligence that kills deals or reduces prices — personal expenses in the books, undocumented loans, POH title issues, and the fixes that protect your valuation.
