***PROPERTY UPDATED ON 07-15-2026***

Verndale MHP is an 18-pad mobile home community situated on 8.85 acres in Verndale, MN.

The property is zoned for mobile home park use and is not located in a flood zone. The park is being managed directly with an onsite manager, TurboTenant, etc.. An on-site manager/maintenance person receives a $200 monthly rent credit.

Public Water & Sewer! Verndale MHP is serviced by city water and city sewer. The underground pipe material is believed to be a combination of PVC and metal. Residents are direct billed for electricity and gas by the respective utility providers. The park owners have recently added direct water/sewer metering on each lot for seamless water/sewer bill back so they no longer use RUBS. Garbage service is included in the lot and home rent. The road through the park is owned and maintained by the park (with affordable assistance from the city). Tenants are responsible for mowing their individual pads, while the park maintains the common areas. Snow removal is handled by the park as needed (with assistance from the city).

Recent Improvements:

Potential Future Improvements:
