You have some great goals and sound pretty adventurous so you are in the right industry lol I love hiking and would love to kitesurf but will start with paddle boarding first. 

I've been an entrepreneur for about 15 years now and since my first adventure as a entrepreneur was in a construction related trade, I consider myself very handy and somehow capable to deal with contractors.

I would highly recommend bringing in an advisor or broker with specific experience and knowledge in this asset class.I have seen many of these parks trade hands on a handshake and a dream, however, you could be taking a huge gamble if you don't get microscopic on the front end.

Begin your real estate investing adventure by educating yourself, identifying your goals, and deciding whether to invest in rental homes, fix-and-flip, or commercial real estate.

If they gave you the runaround and then we’re honest with you that’s a different story but they gambled by being honest with you knowing they might not be able to move in Because they have changed in their hearts and are no longer willing to deceive anyone.

I don't know that I would gamble and say you could sell it if it doesn't work out, you could be holding it for some time.

Which is not true and riskier to only gamble on appreciation I think.

I've lost money on deals that I took a gamble - Detroit homes with more taxes owed than the value of the property, and I've made money.What else can I tell you?

I am ready for a different adventure.

Otherwise, you are just gambling that the bank will not call the loan if/when they discover you have left the property (which probably states it will be owner occupied in your loan, if it's a primary) and are no longer making payments.
