I got a little excited and made 2 more acquisitions pretty quickly after this, so I am hoping those workout the same.I would like to say I am 10000% confident I would not have had the courage to make a move like this without the kind souls on this forum.

I was looking to do a multi-family because they are common around me and the numbers seem to work out well.

I'd start with your Linkedin database, contracts in your phone, Facebook friends, and then work out from there to church, college, frat, social organizations, neighbors, high school friends, family, former work colleagues, etc.   

I see properties daily that will work out great.  

Most PMC's front-load their fees - tenant placement is the big expense - and the reason they front-load their fees this way is that if the tenant doesn't work out and the landlord cancels, the PM already received the bulk of their funds on the property. 

Your analysis will depend on how you're wired in addition to how the numbers work out.

If he owns it, then yeah that won't work out.

While our Realtor didn't work out, our Property Management company has been excellent: talk to Garret Durant at Real Property Management in Pocatello.

@Alex GrosvenorIf I submit low bids the numbers will work out with the renovation?

If it doesn’t work out for you, please let me know as I am interested in mobile home park’s!
