@Jaclyn Spinelli Avondale and some of the surrounding areas more life style areas and pricing in todays market is pretty high.

Here are a dozen things that can destroy you with a mobile home park:1) Paying too much2) Bad market (small metro population and low home prices)3) Bad location in that market (undesirable part of town that nobody wants to live in)4) Bad infrastructure (failing roads, utility lines, etc.)5) Private water and/or sewer6) Master metered electric and/or gas7) Density too high so you can't fit new homes on the lots8) Mostly 1960s and 1970s homes on the lots, as they will end up getting scrapped as people move out over time9) Low lot rents that make the whole business model not worth the effort (like $99 rents in Mississippi)10) Inability to get or retain traditional financing11) Environmentally contaminated12) City or state permit problemsThe bottom line is that -- if you are going to seriously buy a mobile home park -- you need to educate yourself on this niche.As far as finding mobile home park deals, there are basically four methods used:1) On-line (Mobilehomeparkstore or Loopnet)2) Brokers (over 50% of the 200+ parks we own came from brokers)3) Direct mail to park owners4) Cold-calling park owners

We were both working full time and living there. 50s style home completely throughout everything was either pink or baby blue.

Another more environmentally friendly solution is to provide solar heated water.  

It really depends on your style and how you’d like to invest.

. **** roaches are also in every single building when I acquired them over the past several years and don't get me started on those Chicago style rats!

I went to Beach Cove Resort for much of my childhood, and loved that style vacation. 

They don't need government protection when they can just take money from their gold filled swimming pools a la McDuck style.

I own a garden style condo (my previous residence); free and clear.

I utilize a room by room style rental as I am able to squeeze significantly more rental income out of the property than if I rented it as a SFH.
