Summary

On this episode of Beyond Multifamily, Amanda Cruise and Ash Patel interview Brad Johnson, co-founder and CIO of Vintage Capital. Brad shares his journey from institutional private equity to building a $200M+ mobile home park portfolio and discusses why he’s doubling down on the asset class today. They dive into due diligence strategies, creative seller financing structures, and why Brad prefers long-term holds with strong operators over short-term flips. The trio also tackles current legislative risks, how rent control could impact MHP valuations, and why Brad isn’t chasing distressed multifamily deals.
