@Anthony CarrasquilloWhen I am searching out a HML I seek to work with local direct lenders who I can build a relationship with.

If you don't want to enter a long-term relationship with the partner, you can structure the operating agreement for a buyout after a certain period of time.  

Beyond that- realtors aren't commodities, good realtors make deals work that rookies can't get done- we know how to negotiate, develop relationships with sellers and come up with terms that favor our clients and create back door leverage. 

@Sara Aviv Berger - You should form relationships with brokers in the markets that you like.

Agents that love investors will help you find a deal and build the long term relationship. 

I would love the opportunity to network with investors, lenders, contractors, property managers, and agents to build relationships, future business, and surround myself with like-minded and more experienced individuals so I can learn as much as I can!

You're gonna want to start building a relationship with an agent(s) preferably ones who are investors themselves.

Dave, there is so much more than the relationship between UPB and the purchase price when dealing with MH ( or any property ) when lending.
