@Cal C.  Is your post an objection or a complaint?

@Cody Godfrey just be yourself and say exactly why your calling. Hey my name is Cody and Im looking to purchase mobile home parks in the area I was calling you today to see if your interested in selling ? If they are then have a data sheet ready to go to get the crucial info that you need to make a honest and fair perk evaluation. If not put them on a drip campaign and hit them periodically until they finally do sell. 

@Cody Godfrey   as @Ryan Groene and @Jack Martin said, its consistent and thorough data work that will yield results at the end of the day. Relationships being #1 of course.

@Rick Bassett

Revenge on the scammers, hopefully you turned your findings over to the police and they actually do something, actually since that scam is multi-state wide i believe that makes it a federal crime. lol  good work your awesome man!!!! you got my vote!

all great information here as to how to find park owners info to contact them. 

As for me, Ive just been cold calling and web scarping the internet to find information. 

I have a few tricks as well to really cut down the time to find these owners and put the list together so ive been focused on using those tactics that ive discovered over time and effort. 

serve him a notice to pay or quit then evict him legally thru your attorney or the court and then block his number and delay the communication while the eviction process plays out and gets rid of this nightmare tenant.  

Rent to a better tenant and move on with life. 

@Jack Martin jack per our earlier conversation indefinatly want to stay in touch about MHPs in the Southwest. Look forward to following this thread....

@Josh R. is there a way i can be a part of this and attend virtually? 

its all relative to your personal experience and beliefs regarding this topic. 

If you ask me, and thats of course if you ask I will tell you this.

We can all agree that in the digital fast paced age that we live in that TIME IS MONEY. 

We can all agree that time is more valuable than money in most instances (Im sure ill get more support on this bullet point from the older BPers) 

With the digital era of everyone making YouTube videos and claiming they are some expert and putting out information with no way to vet that information to know if its good information or not. 

That 3rd fact to me makes me lean towards a mentor IF:

you can find the right one who can actually teach you...

show you by example what you need to do to become successful (ie: blueprint for success)

has a track record of successful students that have blazed a path before you showed up.

Look, If the right mentor can shave 10 years of mistakes and drastically shorten your learning curve in any given profession or sport I would bear the question. . 

Why wouldn't you pay for a mentor? because time is money. 

Do you think Tom Brady would have 9 trips to the Superbowl and 6 Super Bowl Championship victories without a coach?

A true coach/mentor should provide experience, value, insight and applicable knowledge to your profession or sport. 

The right coach can make all the difference. So can the right mentor. 

But in the end I suppose this topic much like many other topics on BPs forums is subjective to the reader based on their personal experiences be it positive or negative.  

if you got the money, find the right mentor and go for it!!! Just be sure to do your due diligence on them prior to signing up and paying big $$$!!

thats my .02

@John Jacobus check with the non auto auctions sometimes they have those repossessed homes laying around that you can get for cheap. I used to see them quite frequently out here before i was in the MHP space. 

But i would just call your neighboring park owners and see if they have homes they want to get rid of them just rehab them. You can get those for cheap.
