How We Achieved a 33% Cash-on-Cash Return with Off-Market Deals & Vertical Integration
At Crystal View Capital, we believe in transforming communities and unlocking hidden value—and our latest refinance is a powerful example of both.
We recently refinanced a 360-site, mobile home community portfolio in Michigan through Freddie Mac, securing $12.77 million in fixed-rate, interest-only debt for ten years. Originally acquired for $14.25 million, the properties were appraised at $21 million just over a year later.
What drove this increase in value?
Net operating income growth
Rental increase, fee adjustments, and utility pass-throughs
Strong occupancy
Infrastructure improvements
Infill strategy
The refinance returned 88% of our original equity, resulting in a projected 33% cash-on-cash return. COO Derek Bergeon also shared how our operational playbook—focused on swift revenue improvements and community enhancement—led to a 30% revenue increase within just three months at one property.
This transaction is part of Crystal View Capital’s broader Fund IV strategy to acquire, enhance, and reposition undervalued communities. It underscores our ability to generate strong returns while improving resident quality of life.
