We have a local competitor that deliberately seperates single service call issues into separate Work Orders, so each issue falls under the threshhold and they don't need owner approval.

Your competitor may pay less than you and rank higher than you.

Apparently this is a brand name, there are competitors. 

Most first time investors and homebuyers will shy away from a property that needs work and most experienced investors prefer total gut rehabs which leaves you somewhere in the middle with less competitors in the market.By utilizing this strategy, you'll get: acquisition, project management, and property management experience.

They are my main competitor here in Atlanta.They are good people, I know a lot of those guys.  

If you were paying 25%, and you got actual costs down to 10%, with your own labor as free, and no insurance.....when you add in the cost of your own labor, insurance, then add in profit, and increased costs as you grow in a variable priced model....you're going to be right at the same price of the competitor you fired. 

If my competitors start to then MAYBE I would.

Maybe we are competitors, but would be interesting to see how, if at all, we might work together/collaborate.

You may think “oh well isn’t he/she a competitor?

In a MHP, the tenants have homeownership, so they cannot easily be "stolen away" by a competitor.
