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!

Great learning experience.Good Investing... 

I needed something small to learn from and for my mother How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

For the BRRRR process I plan on using a hard money lender for the rehab process for the SFH's but what I'm not sure of is, should I purchase a duplex and rent one unit out and live in the other or should I just rent for now, not purchase a duplex and just purchase a SFH with cash and start BRRRR'n immediately?

g I’m in the process of using them.

You can easily do this on a spreadsheet, and it will take less time to track than finding and learning new software.

You'll definitely need more time to get things processed.

Then you can self-manage and learn all about tenants, contractors, etc. 

By facilitating the closing process and leveraging a strategic marketing approach, we increased the property’s visibility and quickly found a buyer.

The planning process can take a very long time!
