A decent rule of thumb for estimating the vacancy component of the 50% is 8.33% (one month out of 12).

I'm confused on this b/c I am missing the mktg component of the biz card right now, but just don't want to be handing out my cell phone # indirectly to anybody.

Positive monthly cash flow is only one component of your total return.  

After an initial assessment, maybe every other year if key components are solid, until there is notable deterioration.

In would be extremely rare that he actually saw the appraisal, so any comments he would have made would be hearsay and detrimental to the sellerI could not find any evidence that FHA change the 120 period for an appraisal.  

When it’s the opposite situation, the process may be delayed.I’m glad Bill touched on Emotional Equity, because this is a key component.

This process will also make you more cognizant of the various components in each area of the home. 

I am wondering what are the value add components in mobile home parks?

The dialog with the seller is one of the key components that I use to request additional info for my due diligence.

Its one component as already has been alluded to here.  200 a month seems like a pretty small amount without knowing the term/ rate/ balances etc.
