I live about 60 miles South-Southwest of your area.  

I'm in Rutherford County, about one hour and twenty minutes from you, due southwest.

I'm looking for some leads on non conventional mortgage lenders or portfolio lenders in the Southwest Michigan.

There are certainly guys in our company that have had much success brokering manufactured home communities, however they mostly focus on seniors housing and the much "cleaner" stuff that tends to be found in the West, Southwest, Florida, etc., whereas I would be targeting midwestern states such as Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa, Indiana, and later on Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska and Oklahoma where the parks tend to be a bit lower quality and are often rurally located.For this to work, I believe I need at least a minimum of 1,200 or so parks in my farm area, each with a minimum of 50 to 60 lots, and a value of somewhere between $750k to $4M. --- 1,200 parks is an estimate based on my experience in the apartment world; this number could be higher or lower depending on the velocity of this product type in my markets.--- 50 to 60 lots because my understanding is that 40 to 50 lots is the minimum number of lots needed to provide the economies of scale to reward a passive/remote investor, and from what I've seen even the nicest parks in the Midwest typically don't trade for much more than $20k/lot with the bulk of them trading closer to $10k/lot or less; I would prefer that the majority of the properties in my database are large enough so that the prospective buyer market is not limited to a local buyer.

In Philly, I would say west, southwest, and parts of North Philly.

We have a couple park in southwest Michigan and are looking to fill 6 vacant spots.

I have even developed small land projects and built a high end custom 4200 sqft 3 bdrm 3.5 ba home in the Temecula Wine Country.Now I would like to ramp up my retirement getting involved in fix n flip, buy n hold projects within the Southwest Riverside County.

I've got most south and southwest of Milwaukee. 

I am actually an investor in the south west side of Columbus.

Not sure what the regulations are in TX, since when I owned property there is was south and south west of Houston and water was not an issue.
