It took a little bit for me to understand how to best utilize them team since there are a few different people on your team. 

Right now the only utility at the garage is power so basically I am starting with a frame and a roof. 

We have a few parks and we utilize both options.

This protects against potential claims and liabilities specific to the rental.For tax purposes, maintain clear records of rental-related income and expenses, allowing deductions for insurance, utilities, maintenance, and depreciation proportionate to the rental unit.

Pay your utilities out of this account, and after the month has ended, you can distribute your cash flow from this account to your reserve account and your personal checking account.

In a short verse, I don't have the numbers :( but in general I just don't know if what I want to do in the long run which is BRRRR would be a good idea if I start with utilizing a VA LOAN for a duplex to begin with.  

Then there are the challenges with Section 8 tenants paying utilities and taking care of their rental property.

Unless a different one would be better that you could suggest   If you are house hacking you can utilize 3-10% down. 20%+ is great to put down but not always possible.

Fully furnished, with all utilities included.

Would love to hear your applications and utilize them within my business.
