About Starkey Real Estate and Development

Experience-driven operators focused on creating long-term value in Florida's manufactured housing communities.

Our Story

Built From the Ground Up

Starkey Real Estate and Development was founded on a straightforward belief: manufactured housing communities represent one of the most compelling opportunities in real estate when operated by people who understand both the business and the communities they serve.

Based in Winter Garden, Florida, we focus exclusively on Central and Northern Florida markets. This geographic focus allows us to maintain the hands-on, relationship-driven approach that institutional operators often cannot match.

We acquire communities that others overlook, apply disciplined repositioning strategies, and build stable, well-managed assets that serve residents and deliver returns for our partners.

Our Mission

To create lasting value by acquiring, improving, and operating manufactured housing communities with integrity, expertise, and a commitment to the people who call them home.

Our Vision

To be the most trusted and capable manufactured housing operator in Florida, recognized by investors for our returns, by residents for our communities, and by the industry for our standards.

Our Approach

Hands-On, Every Step

We are not passive investors. Our team is directly involved in due diligence, acquisition negotiations, capital planning, property management, and ongoing operations. This vertical integration gives us an edge: faster decision-making, tighter cost control, and better outcomes for communities and investors alike.

Our process is deliberate. We identify communities in markets we know well, underwrite conservatively, and execute repositioning plans that improve both physical conditions and financial performance. We do not chase volume; we focus on quality and long-term value.

This approach has earned the trust of our capital partners, who appreciate that we manage their capital with the same care we would our own.
