If it makes people take notice you've planted the seed in their minds and perhaps you can follow up with a direct mail effort or another touch point. 

Buy the land, till the land, plant the seeds, grow the plant and not reap the rewards?

Bonus points for you to sharing this...it is almost like the concept of "Inception" and planting a seed in my head.

And those things I reap in those months are a direct correlation to the seeds I sow in the late fall and winter.

To help seed your study, parks come in two flavors (and shades of gray in between), 100% park owned homes which the park and manager run as rentals, this is very problematic, turn over, theft, home damage.  

Why not get the best deals on the properties, let the bank initially pay for it and keep the initial seed dollars for the repairs, taxes, insurance, etc.  ?

lets say we are conservative and you are getting .55% and its $4,000 per month.. all you now have is taxes and insurance and the rest is yours as well as having the asset free and clearPeople make a decision on buying a property at today numbers when they tell me its not for today but for the future.. why worry what its doing today..worry what it will be when you will need it.. its like planting a bunch of seeds to grow a forest.. it takes time to mature and evolve.. same with real estate..so to say your not making money I do not agree,  you may not be making money right now.But if you dont need it now think if this property aligns with your future goals.. if it does keep it.

I currently rent where I live, and after taking a look at the value of the house I currently rent, I realized that if I just put the seed money into where I am now and bought THIS place, according to the calculators, my mortgage would be a little shy of half of what my rent currently is. 

What he said is so true and it’s about planting a seed in the business.

Keep your money moving forward quickly, compound the returns, then buy (spend) your profit on cash flow properties down the road...all while continuing to flip your seed money (never spending it).
