We pay the taxes on the mobiles up until the time the tenant makes all the payments, then the title is transferred to the tenant/now buyer.If holding for passive income, we will pay for transport and rehab as the return is far greater than the outlay.I personally have never heard of a mobile home park paying someone to put their mobile in a park until on this thread.

But don't disparage the smart people who aren't satisfied with those kinds of answers.Thanks to those types of people, you have modern medicine, modern transportation and pretty much every other technological breakthrough this world has ever seen.Again, there is a big analogy between ignorant people and people on welfare...they both look to the rest of us to make their lives better so that they can go through life not realizing what else there is.
