Combination RV Park and Storage Units in downtown Silver City, New Mexico.

This park is an established, highly profitable business that consists of a unique combination of rental properties:

• 45 RV sites in the main park with many permanent residents

• two park model RVs for short-term visitors to Silver City

• two attractive commercial buildings on the main street (currently rented to a church and a music store),

• a three-bedroom owner’s home

• and 110 storage units.

The property is located in the heart of a beautiful destination town of 12,000 in the mountains of southern New Mexico. At 6,000 feet, bordered by Gila Wilderness and the Gila National Forest, Silver City boasts an artist community, Indian cliff dwellings, a university, a regional medical center, an annual Blues festival and Tour of the Gila bike race, and is frequently listed among the best (relatively) undiscovered places to live in the US.

Business is well-established (since 1991), with many long-standing customers over the years.  The park is shady, beautifully kept, and has rustic western charm; it is centrally located within a few blocks of historic downtown Silver City. It has many trees and a “green” for tenters and picnicking. The park facilities are comprised of roomy sites with 30 and 50-amp service, wi-fi, an immaculate bathhouse and laundry center, a combination office and gathering-place for tenants (for conversation, potlucks and coffee), plus two completely outfitted park models.  On its perimeter are two attractive commercial rental buildings, one a double wide on a stone foundation and the other a new, high-ceilinged Southwest style store.  Also on the perimeter is a 1200 sq. foot home, now occupied by the owner, an older home which as been renovated and tiled, with three bedrooms and several lovely French doors. Adjacent to the RV Park and sharing its office is a beautiful gated, security-camera equipped storage facility with 10X20, 10X10 and 10X5 units (110 in all), enjoying 95-100% occupancy.

This property, combined with the prospect of owner financing, presents a rare opportunity for an owner wishing to be directly involved in the property to acquire a comfortable home located next to the property, earn a steady salary, and work toward full outright ownership of a substantial asset.  On the other hand, for owners wishing to fully delegate all aspects of management and have  “turnkey” business, all required management has been factored into the payroll.

Silver City is a growing community, a tourist destination, and a sought-after place to retire.  The recession has not caused any setback to business at the park. 

The owner is selling for personal reasons (divorce) and is willing to consider offering financing to qualified buyers (4-5% for 20 years, negotiable). In order to be considered for financing, a prospective buyer’s downpayment, track record in business, and personal credit rating will be taken into consideration.  Owner can be reached by email: julie@silvercityrv.com
