A short YouTube presentation by Donna Bordeaux (Donna Genie) from CampgroundAccounting explaining the "pre-diligence" process campground owners should use to prepare their parks for sale (recommended planning horizon: within 3–5 years). The talk lists what to assemble—tax returns, financial statements, occupancy metrics (occupancy rate, ADR), site counts, asset inventories, permits/zoning—and emphasizes good recordkeeping to maximize sale value; it ends with a call-to-action to schedule an appointment via campgroundaccounting.com.
