Hey guys,I am currently in the process of closing a mobile home park with 11 lots. I will be renting out lots to tenants, and I only own one trailer in the park. I pay the property taxes, and tenants take care of main...

A simple google search should show you where that is and who runs it.Other than that, simply being on BP can lead to great knowledge of the business and how it works n your field.

Main difference is I'm about 8 years earlier than you on the real estate journey line.If you see me at the Meetup @Kevin Fox mentioned, please do say Hi ... or feel free to reach out if you have any specific questions you think I could help with - I'm by no means the longest running B&H investor here, but can provide plenty of opinions and actuals data based on various types of property in the area south of 52, north of 94, and west of La Mesa.Good luck!
