A Targeted Investment Strategy
American Leisure targets both stabilized income assets and value-add opportunities across manufactured home communities, RV resorts and saltwater marinas. We underwrite each asset on its own merits, balancing current income with long-term appreciation potential depending on where the opportunity lies in the cycle.
A Dual-Value Approach
American Leisure’s principals have partnered or transacted with some of the industry's leading capital allocators, including Equity LifeStyle Properties, Almanac Realty Investors, Centerbridge Partners, Sun Communities and a large public pension fund.
Built on this experience, American Leisure aligns capital with a disciplined, dual-value investment strategy.
We acquire assets with strong intrinsic fundamentals, including prime locations, inflation-resilient cash flows and high-retention tenancies, to deliver immediate income and downside protection through market cycles. We create additional value through active ownership and operational execution driving long-term capital appreciation.
Providing access to historically coveted niche asset classes.
Scarcity-Driven Markets with Persistent Demand
We focus on markets and asset types where new supply is structurally constrained and demand is durable across cycles. Scarcity is not uniform—it is shaped by geography, regulation, land availability and competing land uses.
Marinas represent the highest barriers to entry, given finite waterfront, environmental permitting and limited replacement potential. Manufactured home communities benefit from zoning resistance, entitlement friction and long development timelines that materially restrict new supply nationwide. RV assets, while more flexible, can exhibit similar scarcity in select coastal and destination-oriented markets where location is irreplaceable. We underwrite scarcity at the property level, prioritizing assets where structural constraints translate into pricing power, downside protection and resilient long-term cash flows.
Aligned Partners & Long-Term Investment Horizon
We partner with long-term, relationship-oriented investors who value disciplined underwriting, alignment and transparent communication. Our investor base includes accredited investors, high-net-worth individuals and families, and institutional partners who share our focus on durable cash flow and capital preservation.
We take a long-term view and generally underwrite assets for extended ownership. While outcomes may vary by investment, our strategy is oriented toward durable income and compounding value rather than short-duration exits.
Risk management begins prior to any acquisition. We emphasize downside protection through conservative underwriting, modest leverage and submarkets with proven pricing power. Structural supply constraints, durable demand and operational control are central to our approach to achieve risk-adjusted returns.
FAQs
We invest across manufactured home communities, select RV resorts and saltwater marinas, prioritizing properties with structural barriers to new supply. While these asset types differ, our underwriting discipline is consistent: we focus on scarcity, location quality and long-term demand fundamentals.
We use leverage selectively and conservatively. We typically acquire assets utilizing first-lien mortgages from highly reputable lenders and tend to avoid credit funds and non-traditional financing sources. Our capital structures are designed to preserve flexibility, protect downside, and support long-term ownership rather than short-term optimization.
We invest meaningfully alongside our partners and structure investments so that sponsor economics are driven by asset performance and long-term value creation. Sponsor promotes are earned only after achieving defined return thresholds, aligning incentives across the capital stack. Affiliates may receive market-based fees for property management, development, or related services, consistent with industry standards.
Opportunities are sourced through a combination of proprietary relationships, brokered transactions and targeted acquisitions in markets we know deeply. Local expertise and long-standing relationships are critical components of our sourcing strategy.
Investors receive institutional-quality reporting with clear, consistent insights into asset performance, financial results and key developments. Transparency and accountability are core to how we operate. Reporting is shared on a quarterly basis to our limited partners.
