I've was briefly active in the mobile home segment up here in TN some years ago, and I continue to be interested in that area.All the uncertainty regarding regulations caused me to focus elsewhere, but it might be time to take another look, especially now that I've got a toe in the FL market.Cheers,John

Learn the nuances of this segment of the market.

Nevertheless, according to some analysts, it can allegedly have negative implications for the global property market as investors tend 'to redirect their funds into more lucrative segments (e. g., stock markets)' where there are better short term profit expectations.

More about quality tenants later.You could segment the curve by job/income level (The following is a silly segmentation but bear with me.) as shown below.
