Storage vs. MHPs

I have the opportunity to expand a mobile home park I own or build storage units on the raw ground.

If I am looking at it as a direct comparison which would be a better play without getting lots in the weeds?

Assuming your market is good for both?  And you run your numbers.

Do you own the mobile homes or just rent the lots?

If you are just renting the lots, I would go with the MHP lots.  

Storage building costs are really high right now. If your market for a 10x20 is $90 per month or less I wouldn’t do them.  

If your storage rental rate is say $130 or higher I would do Selfstorage.
