However, there is substantial principal paydown of the note every year with over $1M in principal paid down by year 10. The reason for the proposed seller financing terms is to achieve the goal of approximating the existing monthly cash flow that the park currently generates as is. Other: 1) The Seller financing will have a prepayment penalty of 10% for life of the loan. 2) Seller to approve creditability of Buyer at sole discretion of Seller in order to extend credit. 3) There is potential flexibility on the down payment amount and interest rate if payment targets are achieved. 4) Potential flexibility in short term (less than 12 months) lower monthly debt payments initially.

12 Financial and Operational Notes The mobilehome park is managed primarily by the property owner. The property owner recently moved out of the area and there is now a part time onsite manager. There is no off site management. Given the park size and simple operation, new ownership should operate the park in the same hands-on manner. The on site manager pays reduced rent of $500 per month for apt unit #2 for compensation, reflected on rent roll. Park manager duties: Read utility meters, collect rents, distribute rent invoices and watch over park. The property is on septic. The septic tank is pumped every two months. A 800 ft leachfield was installed in 2012; 800 foot field, 8 x 100 ft, ft lines. Capital cost of septic work: $31,000. The leachfield is located on the vacant land portion north of the property. There is one septic and it is located just north of the entrance to the park in front of the front wall. There is one park owned home included in the sale. This home rents for $1,150. The home has been kept as park owned for potential managers/owners. Estimated value of $40,000. The park owned home occupies one the more better spaces in the park, on top of the hill with nice 270 degree views. There is value in new ownership controlling this space within the park. The property is submetered for gas, water and electric. County water and natural gas. Electricity is 50 amp service. The park has multiple electrical breakers with 200 amps. Each breaker serves 4 homes. Flat $40 monthly charge to tenants for trash and septic service. There is a laundry room on site with 2 washers and 2 dryers. There is no laundry lease agreement. The apartment unit tenants are typically the only users of the laundry facility at $100 monthly. The property occupies acres, originally intended as a 200 space MHP. Estimated vacant acreage on parcel is 20+ acres. The park was built in 1973 subject to a non-conforming use permit (NR98064), County of Los Angeles. The current use permit is set to expire October 13, Exhibit A of the previously approved non-conforming use (year 1998) can be found on the next page of this offering.

New tenants, especially if the park begins to advertise and choose all age versus 55+, could have new rents at $810. Cheaper space rent can be had in Palmdale and Lancaster but in general Acton Country is a more attractive place to live and significantly closer to the major employment center of Los Angeles.

17 Property Photos Excess Land Undeveloped land north of the park top and undeveloped land south of park. Hundreds of nice homes are located north and east of the park Highly travelled highway 14 is seen in the bottom photo. Undeveloped land is flat to gently sloping topography.

18 Acton Country Mobilehome Park Investment Discussion Excess Land / Park Expansion The property was initially approved with the County of LA for a non conforming use permit for a 200 space mobile home park. Seller has all documents provided at time of purchase in These include submittals and plans to the County of LA. Only 25 spaces were built by choice of the owner at the time of construction. The economic demand in Acton at the time (1970s) may not have supported a 200 space MHP. Furthermore one of the owners died before further construction was completed and it is believed the surviving widow did not have the desire to complete the project. The permit for the 200 space mobile home park expired in The property had a non conforming use permit placed on the property in 1998 as a 25 space MHP. Please see Exhibit A previous page. This permit expires in October 2018, the application for renewal has been submitted and paid to LA County Dec This application is for a renewal of the existing use, Exhibit A. Therefore in order to expand the mobile home park a new application and permit to build or expand to a 200 +/- space MHP will need to be submitted subject to current mobile home park codes with LA County and various agencies. Nonetheless this excess land is substantial and has value. The land is zoned light agriculture residential.

20 Investment Review Acton Country Mobilehome Park is an excellent real estate investment for many investors. The real estate of acres located on Sierra Hwy with excellent visibility to Highway 14 in Los Angeles County is intrinsically valuable. A turnkey good condition, large lots, 100% occupied MHP at a going in cap rate of 7.31% with seller financing at 4.5% occupying the large parcel makes the investment even more attractive. For the investor seeking to build equity this offering is nearly perfect. Eric Coulsell Broker cell ; eric@calcomadvisors.com CA BRE#
