Hi Greg, I spend a lot of time listening to STR podcasts and YouTubers and the consistent assessment is that quality design is pretty much a must. 

Personally, I assign my deals to my end buyers when working with sellers to help them find buyers for their mobile homes. 

G’Day BP folks,A fellow Toledo investor started a Facebook group revealing all local scammers.Mostly contractors.10+ years of investing in Toledo and stopped counting at $1m in losses.It’s just the nature of the beast and the cost of doing business in my eyes.Unfortunately, Toledo is notorious for bad operators and poor quality of workmanship in many industries.Maybe this group will help you not loose the same amount of cheese that I did $$$You’re welcome 😇 https://facebook.com/groups/786864700099337/

A pretty spreadsheet doesn't matter because none of us know how accurate your numbers are, your level of experience, how many times you have seen it in person, and what other property anomalies exist.

To what extent you tell them how you structured the deal, bought the property or anything personal for that matter is up to you.  

Come to find out his wife's dad had a career in real estate, his friend works at a firm as a private lender (that's how he got started), the houses were 50k houses and half of them were trailers...His personal house, while large was in the middle of nowhere...You can see the focus shifted from real estate investing to social media marketing.

My question is how long do you personally wait to see how your Airbnb venture is going to go until strongly contemplating long term?

The reason I changed my mind about John Jackson is, after years of being investor friends, he asked me to be his acquisition person, help train his students and to speak at his seminars.

The first thing you need to know is that mobile homes are NOT real estate; it is personal property.  

Meet them in person and have them sign it when you pay them.
