That's when I realized the importance of staying organized and having a comprehensive checklist.Closing a deal involves juggling a million things.

I have a vision of building and developing mobile home communities in upstate NY that are vertically integrated to allow future members to choose from a catalog of homes, have them installed, provide them with financing options, and make the process of selecting, buying, and living in the community very smooth.Since this is my first time doing this, I would love to chat with an experienced mobile home developer on the following items:Zoning - navigating the zoning process to allow the community to be allowedStart up costs - I am a finance person who would love to better understand start up costs - septic / electrical / water / pads / roads / etcOn Going Maint Costs - in building our business case, I want to build a conservative financial model to capture all re-occurring expenses - utilities, landscaping, capex, septic clean out, etc.I know this is a lot, but would greatly appreciate talking to someone who is an expert in this asset class!

I guess I dont understand what you asking.are you asking can a buyer cash out your equity and just take over your seller financed loan.

In a city like Philly, you will face many challenges - you need to learn the market and know the neighborhood and the block and make sure all of your numbers are within reason, you need very reliable contractors, you need a to understand the permit process, you need to be familiar with market expectations. 

I finally understand that credit card payments are exempt from needing to send 1099's.

I currently operate a few STRs so have a good understanding of that aspect although they're all located in touristy locations.

It doesn't seem this "accelerator program" is offering anything of true value and quite frankly I am surprised someone such as yourself who has 10 years of experience and owns 50 properties would fall for a gimmick.I've had friends and family swindled by the gurus and seminars out there (I've been duped myself before) so I can understand the cynicism, but not every community is just a gimmick.

The only way for you to understand the situation and evaluate your options is to ask a lot of questions.  

I think demand is decent.If you're looking in a flood zone you'll definitely want to understand the FEMA 50% rule.

Can you please help me understand better what potential concerns in your experience can potentially arise here?
