Quote from @Griffin Malcolm: Question for the community - I've been reaching out to wholesalers via FB groups, and one guy wants me to Zelle him $20 for a list of 27 motivated sellers.

COMMUNITY- will the community support this type of housing (talk to other developers, visit projects of similar nature preferably in the same area and price bracket).3.

Excited to connect and have access all the resources that this awesome community has to offer.

I didn’t realize it then but thanks to this community ( and more than a year of unemployment ) I have learned I should have taken advantage of the W2 lending benefits when I had the chance.

I'm hoping they get a good director in place who wants to serve their customers (tenants who need safe houszing) and their vendors supplying that need (landlords) and operate an efficient and successful program serving our community. 

Hey @Eugene Brownwelcome to the BiggerPockets community.

Are there any MH communities in your area? 

My personal favorite (and where I currently live) is Belmont, NC, a charming town about 25 minutes from Uptown with excellent restaurants, bars, breweries, and community events.
