Learning from the experiences of others helps that experience come much more quickly.I've had one situation where it didn't work out as well as we'd hoped due to bad behavior by one partner, so that was unfortunate.

I am not sure if it is just me, but using the site in Chrome, some of the "navigation links" don't display properly.  

8% interest rates and crazy government behavior that makes economic conditions and investment outcomes highly uncertain

While I am a believer in the tenets of behavioral finance and of going against the herd to find deep value, I still struggle with the idea that there is a whole asset class out there that is mis-priced and a goldmine waiting to be claimed.In addition it does not make sense that parks are claimed to be both very stable compared to multifamily, easier to run than multifamily, AND trade at yields well above multifamily.We live in a world where information is instantaneous, and investors are flush with dollars coming out their ears driving yields down on every type of asset class - why should mobile home parks be any different?

I know that may not be acceptable behavior to the folks that want the property winterized, but you are investing thousands of dollars so what the heck??

This one struck my fancy and I absolutely love the teamwork on display here!

It's true that self-interest directs the behavior of most in the business.

I know none of the above will 100% predict any particular market's future behavior, and I'm not asking for a place to go that will give me 'predictions'. 

Im told The federal don't have to follow the same rules like the state so your going to have a LO who is on thier best behavior if they are state licensed.

Are there a lot of other indications of bad behavior and irresponsibility (recent evictions, a high number of speeding tickets, etc.)
