I'm considering the possibility of other counties or areas, but within a few hours drive so I am able to do that and don't feel my hands are tied being too far away.I do see some MH for reasonable prices, but wasn't sure if that was a smart move in this game.

If Instagram or social media Is your thing do that, if it’s door knocking, mailers, cold calling, driving for dollars, open houses, networking, or something else then do that.

Someone who has done this successfully who can provide some pointers on how to get started and major pitfalls.I see several laundromats in driving distance of where I live up for sale.

Driving all over to fix issues as opposed to going to one address.
