Once bought then how to clean up such a park and convert POH to TOW (tenant owned) is the business model.The hard part (ignoring the huge problem of cleaning up such a park) is getting the seller to accept an offer calculated as:Number of paying pads x 12 x $equiv lot rent from surrounding parks x 0.5 (50% expense ratio) / 0.1 (or higher) for 10% cap rateAdd in nominal value of the homes, $3k for old homes on up a bit.  

Cat food is higher in protein than dog food; thus cat urine has a higher urea content; VERY difficult to get out of carpet/padding/floors.

Check out the book "Get Paid for Your Pad" by Jasper Ribbors.

Using the traditional wholesale method in my market those not work as well in comparison to your market.In the NYC and NJ market the sellers are different type of breed of people and they have back out many times for silly little things, I am sure in your market a hand shake is a bond but in this market time is your enemy and whatever way you could prevent a seller from backing out, this is an added option for it.I dont know why you want to focus and the"stress statement" that was just added information but that doesn't make or brake this strategy.The conclusion, many responded here that using the MLS would get you a higher profit margin.

Has anyone used the portable self storage units rather than building a building on a cement pad. 

Carpets even when treated delicately only last a handful of years, even a moderate spill can do permanent damage to the padding underneath unless you pull it all up and dry it.I assume you mean in your garage you did that?

Everything from leaving kool-aid sitting for a couple days to setting hot pots down to using it as a chopping board will mess up the finish.If you want to gift your tenants with hot pads and cutting boards, it might be workable, but I personally don't see how polyurethane is going to hold up.  

The bad news about dog urine/smell in carpets is that the urine travels thru thru the carpet and then into the padding and onto or into the subfloor, what ever that may be made of.

TSP was not available as a residential cleaning agent in Greece, so I made due with soap, all-purpose cleaners, laundry detergent, and scouring pads.

@Alejandra Stack Nobody is right now, the Department of Veterans Affairs themselves are the ones who put the brakes on the renovation loan.
