What # pads makes sense for 1st MHP?
What size MHP makes sense starting out in MHP investing? I want to be able to do it mostly on my own before scaling and bringing in a partner. I’m sure there’s a number that wouldn’t be worth it. But I see more experienced investors seeking 60+. Would it be a waste of time to start around 15-30 and trade up?

@Courtney Johnson this is a good question . I just recently bought my first one . It has 22 pads and I’ve got permits to extend to 27 . It’s a simple one, city water and sewer . Underground electric all direct billed to residents . This park was just mis managed no advertising of any kind . No actual structure or signed lease were in effect when I took over . It’s been a satisfying project to see turn around .
As far as partners go though . I took one on for this, only to keep more of my capital to keep investing in other deals . Plus I wanted to get my partner in on this one so when we go to tackle the next (hopefully) bigger one we're both more experienced . Plus our partnership allows me to still run the park rehab how I saw fit . Much like how I do SFH .
If you haven’t read it yet . Go buy yourself the Due Diligence Manual from MHU best money I’ve spent .
