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!

@Hiyun Park only experienced investors can DIY everything in Class C Midwest areas like Detroit, Cleveland, St Louis, etc.Hopefully the info below will help you:-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

@Matthew Drouin had a great reply:"Typically 50% of revenue is going to go right to operating expenses on small multi family. 

Or is it better to utilize different strategies?

Most DSCR loans come with a prepayment penalty that is typically 5% for the first year, 4 points for the second, 3, 2, or 1 pts for each year.

Is $107k your true net, or do you have any other expenses (mortgage, taxes, lodging taxes and fees, insurance, utilities, landscaping, WiFi, etc.)?

Make sure everyone knows a cleaning schedule, expectation for common areas, how are you splitting utilities, guest policy, etc. 

Would it be wise to buy the land with cash we have or utilize as down payment to avoid PMI?

So, a house that would typically cost $100 per sq. ft. to build 5 years ago, is now costing $200 per sq. ft. 

I'm passionate about real estate and how utilizing this asset class can enable me to build generational wealth and retire early.
