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!

This can extend timelines and add layers of bureaucracy.Mission alignment: Many non-profits are cautious about selling assets if the sale could appear misaligned with their mission.

Hi BiggerPockets Community,I’m Josh, 26 years old, current project manager and aspiring asset manager diving into a new venture that I’m excited to share.

some hype but also a lot of good information.also remember: seller finance of a paid off asset, lower risk. 

The 401k is a valuable asset but its my thought that I can use this asset to further increase my portfolio by putting that money to better use.

With the exception of some small markets in the Southeast, places like Cleveland are the only major metro areas where a regular investor can find cash-flowing assets with a mix of appreciation. 

Cheap money and low rates produce euphoria, which increases flow of money to an asset, which pushes up the price to uninvestable levels.I think it's going to get worse than better in the short term.Gino

If your debt to income ratio is good, you can control a $700-800k asset with $50k.

and for the life of me I cant see what these guys do that a very good RE broker who specializes in those assets could not do for you and far better frankly. 

And folks that need to do that dont have the capacity to deal with a loan that has been called and a seller that is madder than a wet hornet if you goof up their credit.Then the other major issue glossed over by everyone is there is a minute amount of sellers that will even entertain these transactions and most of the time your paying a premium for the asset.
