My wife and I are in the process of looking for our first investment property and look forward to networking with the BP community.

We manage between 80 and 100 listings it varies winter to summer but the processing of manually Remitting and paying out the property taxes takes much longer than 10 min.

Though, this process will be the same for the other state (if you created a CA LLC you may need to register it as a foreign LLC in the state in which you are doing business/holding property).

Am I missing anything significant in this thought process? 

If you want to be vary hands on in the process find an agent that will guide you every step.

Streamline your communication process to secure quality tenants.Focus on QualityThe condition of your property matters more now than ever.

I have a vision of building and developing mobile home communities in upstate NY that are vertically integrated to allow future members to choose from a catalog of homes, have them installed, provide them with financing options, and make the process of selecting, buying, and living in the community very smooth.Since this is my first time doing this, I would love to chat with an experienced mobile home developer on the following items:Zoning - navigating the zoning process to allow the community to be allowedStart up costs - I am a finance person who would love to better understand start up costs - septic / electrical / water / pads / roads / etcOn Going Maint Costs - in building our business case, I want to build a conservative financial model to capture all re-occurring expenses - utilities, landscaping, capex, septic clean out, etc.I know this is a lot, but would greatly appreciate talking to someone who is an expert in this asset class!

,While no investment is completely passive, proper real estate investing should be relatively boring.You asked about the process and major considerations.

Are they going to put you through hell during the process, and are you okay with it?

It's such an exciting part of the process!
