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!

Personally I think there are great opportunities in Dover, Somersworth and Rochester. 

This is advantageous bc later you have a third party loan (not your personal money) so seasoning period is 90 days to DSCR out. 

Stay consistent with follow-ups, sharing updates on new opportunities.Pro Tip: Host a webinar or in-person event to connect with potential lenders and answer their questions.Why It Works:Credibility and transparency make lenders more comfortable investing in your deals.What Do You Think?

Still can be very beneficial for a new investor but personally I think not as good as a service as they had with their exclusive listings where they had inspections already done, rent rolls available, and you can complete the entire offer/acceptance via their platform rather than being handed off to an agent. 

Continue to scale my personal RE investments and learn!

Personally see these laws sweeping the nation.. 

i think you can be successful if you are willing to do what you alluded to, which is spend time in person in your chosen market. 

Be sure to actually contact the landlord for verification—fake references are more common than you’d think.In-Person Meeting: Meeting potential roommates in person is a great way to get a feel for compatibility.

Personally I would want to manage the rental myself at least in the beginning to make sure you get good ratings.
