Private Equity Conversations with Fexingo · 2026-08-29 · 9 min
Private equity is quietly buying up country clubs across the US, turning exclusive golf and tennis havens into investment vehicles. In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the economics behind this trend, from the rise of club membership waiting lists to the shift toward real estate development around courses. They dive into how firms like ClubCorp have consolidated the market, why country clubs are attractive targets, and the tensions that arise when PE takes over a community's social hub. With examples like the acquisition of Arcola Country Club and the broader trend of clubs selling to investors, they unpack the risks and rewards for members, staff, and investors. If you've ever wondered whether your local club might be the next buyout target, this episode gives you the playbook. #PrivateEquity #CountryClubs #ClubCorp #GolfInvesting #Buyouts #RealEstate #MembershipModels #LuxuryLifestyle #PEAcquisitions #ArcolaCountryClub #ClubConsolidation #Finance #Investing #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #LucasAndLuna #PEConversations #LongHoldInvesting Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
