Mobile Home investing in Southern California?

[Janis Marashlian]

I recently gutted my Dad's mobile home and moved in. I have been amazed at this whole experience and now appreciate this low cost/low maintenance lifestyle. When exploring the possibility of investing in Mobile Homes in my own park I was immediately shut down by park rules and civil code. Is it possible to invest in Mobile Homes in California?

Hi everyone,

Great advise Joshua. Some parks are investor friendly and others parks are not. Don't worry about the parks that don't want you there and focus on the ones that see you as the value you are. Additionally, there are things you should not say to the PM when you are introducing yourself. You will be buying and reselling the homes, and not renting or subleasing the homes. Be humble and ask for permission and keep a disarming smile on your face.

Hope this helps some,
