The many years in construction has been hard on his body.

The new economy of property management would suggest no "leasing fee" because that doesn't incentivize the manager to actually get the best tenant possible, but just a warm body who has the money ready up front.

Looking at the meetup page, it does state 6.30 twice - once in the headline and once in the body.

Check out some of the body sled type shovels. 

Does any body use commercial finance for non commercial property?  

On the take out we can get you on a non recourse loan but to get it built banks usually want warm bodies to sign.

Your expenses on maintaining a old MH will eat up any money you make over the term.

You WILL NOT do it better, or more efficiently than the PM does.As an investor you're probably going to make over $8,000 in the same amount of time that it takes to do all of this tedious nonsense.  

Offer to do their grunt work or whatever they need and use this as a vehicle to make extra money, make connections, and learn.Read some books like Rich Dad Poor Dad, Dave Ramsey's Total Money Makeover, and The Millionaire Next Door.

I've even had a couple guys go with the "discount agent" and call me later on to ask me why their property isn't selling and when I look at the listings it's quite obvious that they just don't know what they are doing and the marketing is garbage and their agent is basically a warm body to post to the MLS and take orders.
