RV/Trailer Park (pros: profitable with medium investment upfront | cons: lots of regulatory permits needed, and again not in an "activity" zone per se)5.

I am looking at Mobile home parks and distressed hospitality in the short term and multifamily with an unfinished value add by the end of the year.   

Common issue in older areas of San Diego such as North Park, South Park, etc.  

With all the closings especially the Great Smoky Mtn National Park closing a few cabins are sitting empty for Mar and Apr.

I guess that makes us official real estate investors. 

If this is a recession, will self-storage (and mobile home parks) perform as well as many of us have projected all along?  

I've found old garages are more of a liability than a good investment in the lower rent areas unless you get lucky and get one that isn't falling over - it will cost more to bring them back to life or replace them than it will ever bring back in rent and therefore, the best choice is to remove them and spend the money on a new parking slab - obviously a property that already has that done is a plus (people use them as storage lockers too, then leave it all for you to clean when they skip out later).

If you skip out the park will  repossess the home for defaulted lot rent

Also, you can talk to park managers and/or owners and mobile home dealerships who may be able to give you more information and point you in the direction of other investors they work with in the area. 

Trying the secondary market it appears that we would need to hold the property for at least 6 month, would have to settle for 75% LTV ratio, and may not be able to finance under the LLC name.The question... would we be out of the ball park for when trying to finance the property on a 30 years note, Fixed rate, under the name of the LLC, and on a 80% LTV ratio?
