Developing your own mobile home park

[Ryan Sajdera]

Has anyone ever started their own mobile home park before? We are interested in the idea, but the biggest challenge seems to be getting trailers onto the park fast. Has anyone had any experience with developing their own park?

Interesting question, I have no experience in this field, however if your area has seen growth in trailer demand I would look into it since there may be more demand for trailer parks, if not, you would be fighting an uphill battle just to get people in.

It also may be quite a bit of upfront money to get the land and sewer connections, which depending on the distance from the city sewer line can be tens of thousands of dollars.
