RV Park Cap Rates in Texas
Real capitalization rate data from 45 parks across Texas. Understand what the market is actually returning before you write a check.
What This Means for Investors
Texas is a competitive market. At 7.4% average, pricing reflects real buyer demand — this isn't a market where sellers are desperate. That said, the right deal with operational upside can still pencil well if you underwrite NOI improvements rather than buying trailing income.
In markets like this, the edge is in sourcing — not on-market listings, but owners who haven't marketed. The 45 parks in our database with owner contact data give you the starting list. Work it direct.
With data spread across 39 cities, Texas offers enough geographic diversity to be selective. The city breakdown below shows where the cap rate compression is worst and where pockets of yield still exist.
At an average estimated value of $3,345,905, most Texas parks are in reach for individual investors or small syndicates — this isn't a market dominated exclusively by institutional buyers.
