About Niemann Law Group

“

I am in the middle of closing a deal using Ferd as my attorney. His expertise as an attorney and as a mobile home park owner and manager has provided invaluable insight into the deal and negotiations. He has been able to help me not only with the legal aspect of the deal, but with great ideas on how to improve the deal, budget, leases, strategy, etc. He always makes himself available for calls or text messages, and his response time on turning around documents has been less than a day. I just hired Ferd to help me with a second deal and hope to use him to close many more deals in the future.

To say Ferd “does good work” falls insultingly short of the proactive care, attention to detail, and assertive approach he puts into his work. Ferd is one of a kind and one of the most intelligent and proactive attorneys I have ever had the opportunity to work with. Seeing Ferd take such a proactive approach in his work made a lot of sense to me because he is not just an attorney, he is an active investor. This becomes the perfect storm when building a team, and I’m confident in saying, no matter where he goes or who he works with, he will become a linchpin member and someone you too will be grateful for knowing.

Even though I am an experienced real estate investor, I needed an attorney who understands mobile home parks when I was trying to close on my first mobile home park. I found Ferd online, and he was amazing. His expertise was very valuable, and I look forward to engaging him in various capacities for my future MHP deals.

Having negotiated alongside many attorneys, I have found the most effective ones to be those who are investors themselves and can navigate complexities while staying focused on the end goal. Ferd’s successful pursuits as an investor, along with his vast knowledge of tax and accounting, make him a partner you want on your team.

I have worked with Ferd as part of our nonprofit board concerning real estate and the built environment. Ferd is a bright attorney who is a strong addition to any team. He is a man of integrity and I give him my highest recommendation. (My husband is also a national real estate broker who has worked with Ferd and concurs!)

Ferd is a jack-of-all-trades when it comes to real estate. Not only does he have legal expertise, his personal and professional background gives him an exceptional level of expertise in all facets of a project including entitlements, financial returns, debt requirements, and overall project synergy. I have worked on both sides of the development table with Ferd on complex real estate projects for nearly a decade and believe he offers an exceptional level of ability, understanding, and commitment. I give Ferd my highest recommendation.

Ferd has helped us with our recent multifamily purchase and we couldn't be more pleased. He has helped our team in various capacities. He is very knowledgeable and his experience as an owner, operator, promoter, and financial analyst sets him apart from other attorneys. He does much more than draft contracts and goes above and beyond to exceed client expectations.

Ferd has been my guide in evaluating MHP purchases. Unlike most MHP brokers, Ferd is not determined to merely 'get to the commission'; in fact, Ferd has played the role of critical observer and has kept me from pursuing deals that were not in my best interest (despite costing him a commission). Ferd is unique in his ability to quickly analyze and underwrite a deal and in his ability to loyally represent his client’s interest. He is a smart broker/investor/manager/lawyer that I am glad to have on my team. On behalf of my fellow physician investors, I give him my highest recommendation.

Ferd served as my attorney on my first MHP purchase and he was instrumental in helping me get to closing. His knowledge of MHP law, especially grandfathering, made me more comfortable moving forward in the transition from long time MHP manager to MHP owner.

Ferd has served as my attorney and helped me with the tax incentive and financial analysis processes. We worked together on a complex project involving tens of millions of dollars and I valued his counsel very much. He is the rare attorney who understands the financial analysis process at an elite level. I have no hesitation recommending him without reservation.

Ferd has helped me with contract negotiations, zoning, complicated loan transactions, water/sewer bill back complications in tricky blue states, you name it! I could not operate without this team. Most attorneys solve your issue then send you a bill, whereas Ferd actually educates you during the process so you can understand what is happening and know what to do in the future.

Adam SobieskiReal Estate Investor

Ferd has purchased several MHPs that I have listed and he has proven to me an ability to close the deal. Further, I have seen Ferd firsthand solve complex legal problems – he is the guy that can keep the deal together, unlike so many attorneys that kill deals. He is the first attorney I refer my clients to and I give him my strong recommendation.

In recent years, Ferd has served as my attorney or advisor on tax incentive and real estate projects, but our relationship goes back many years in the form of intellectual discussions on real estate and market dynamics.

Ferd and I met in law school and later worked together at Jackson County. I have worked with and against Ferd on projects (and on the athletic field) and can attest to his abilities and skills, whether it be as a lawyer, a financial analyst, or as a leader. Ferd’s competitiveness and tenacity to win set him apart – he is undoubtedly someone you want on your side.

Ferd has helped me in multiple situations. His legal abilities as well as having firsthand experience with his own real estate holdings and transactions puts him a step ahead of other lawyers who do not have such personal experience.

The MHP space is nuanced and specific. For insight in navigating manufactured housing industry laws and regulations, there is no one who could guide you better than Ferd. His knowledge and insight have been extremely valuable, he understands the business not just from a legal perspective but from an operator’s perspective.

My team and I worked with Ferd on two very complex land development projects for car dealerships. Ferd was on top of the project every step of the way and had excellent communication throughout.

I worked with Ferd on an extremely complex deal covering several Mobile Home Parks, apartments, single family rentals, etc. Through the six month contract period I relied on Ferd’s legal expertise, but I also came to him to advise me on business strategy, budgeting, and financial modeling, which he has experience in as an operator and syndicator. Through this process, Ferd was able to display his versatility on all matters real estate which is what makes him an irreplaceable resource for me.

Talking to an attorney isn’t normally something I look forward to. But Ferd isn’t a regular attorney!

I learn something new every time we talk, and he and his team have been a huge asset for our business.

Ferd is my trusted attorney for all legal issues regarding Mobile Home Park transactions and matters. In this wild west of an industry, it helps to not only have trusted legal counsel but to also have someone like Ferd and his team who in addition to their law practice are also active MHP investors and operators. This unique blend of expertise coupled with Ferd’s genuine and candid honesty, separates him from the pack.

Charlie AnsanelliMHP Owner/Operator

“

Simply calling Ferd an attorney doesn’t come close to describing all the value he offers. We recently completed the acquisition of a complicated MHP portfolio. Having Ferd involved was like having a seasoned mentor in the trenches, help us at each step of the way. From title objections to survey reviews to contract negotiations and even nuanced accounting strategies for MHPs, Ferd and his team have been there and are experts on it.

Brett BowmanMHP Owner and Syndicator

I have worked with Ferd on several projects over the last few years and he is well versed in incentives and real estate legal matters.

Ferd and his team are partners in helping us grow our park business. Smart, thorough, responsive, practical, client-focused... these guys are the real deal. Their billing is fair and they know the ins and outs of mobile home parks. Highly recommend.

As someone who has purchased, sold, and operated numerous mobile home communities, Ferd has a unique skillset that make him a one-stop shop for both legal expertise and operational know-how. As a professional, my favorite Ferd qualities are that he is immediate, effective, thorough, organized, and efficient. I challenge you to find someone who can say they've ever waited on him for anything. If everyone in the process got things done like he does, we could sell twice as many MHC's per year.

I have worked with Ferd on Mobile Home Park acquisitions and operations since 2020.

He is my go-to attorney for Mobile Home Park acquisitions and operations.

There is something to be said for an attorney and team to be responsive, personable, honest, and forthright. Jonathan, Hunter, and team were that and more. I was impressed from the beginning with their knowledge and advice for all the different scenarios I threw at them. They gave me great direction and helped me decide what was best for me and my family. Throughout the process of the transaction I never had any problems getting a old of them, they hit every deadline they promised, and were patient with all my questions and concerns. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing help with real estate transactions and more. Thanks you KCREL for helping us out and for your fantastic service! It was truly fantastic from start to finish.
