How do you find out rent in a new mobile home park during Due DIlligence
- Local Trends: Watch for changes in the area like major employment shifts and construction projects.
- Ghost Ads: Post fake ads before purchasing a community and gauge your activity. This gives you an idea of the rent amount and general demand.
- Comparable rents: Analyze rental listings in your area for similar properties (size, location, amenities). Look for recently rented units to get the most accurate picture.
- Rental listing websites: Utilize platforms like Zillow, Trulia, Craigs List, (In Utah, KSL), Facebook Marketplace, or Rentometer to search for comparable rentals and analyze rental trends.
- Local property management companies: Contact local property managers for their insights on current rental rates in your area.

@Logan M. hope you keep posting!
Some additional posts for your series:
How you ID potential purchases?
How you find the actual owners and get past their registered agents?
How do you get them to accept seller-financed offers?
What discovery terms do you put in your offers?
What are the typical challenges after you close on a new purchase?
These are great topics. I will work through them.
