I like the space as this is pretty fragmented vs MH, so cap rates seems to trend higher. 

We self manage our properties, but we provide maintenance work for others rentals and pretty much all the property managers around here are mediocre. 

I don't see numbers work too often, pretty rare, with the exception to sellers circumstances

I think there's a pretty low bar for competency in the management business because it's not glamorous and can be a grind.

With 10 year mortgages if you are truly only $400 in the hole each month you’re probably doing pretty good.

There is a small (<600 sf) house on the lot currently, which is in pretty rough shape. 

I find this data super interesting, and took the opportunity to dive into their 2025 edition this week.Nationwide they say we can expect:Average mortgage rates of 6.3%, with rates edging down over the year to reach 6.2% by the end of the year.Home prices will grow by 3.7% across the US, which is pretty modest.

Maryland is also illegal to approach someone in default and has some pretty stiff penalties

Even when talking with some real estate professionals who would seem to have an incentive to help me with renting out my property, I have been met with serious warnings (they pretty much say don't do it).

Joe its all about NPV  and rate of return for investors.. either way your going to take a pretty big hair cut out of your equity to do what your wondering about.
