I'm learning as much as I can with all the resources I have.  

Excited to get involved with the Bigger Pockets community!

@Melissa WilliamsonWelcome to Bigger Pockets.

The most important thing is networking, Bigger Pockets is great and there are a bunch of groups on Facebook I could recommend but, you need a local accountability and an REI meeting would be the best place to find good people and find someone to help find the information you need and someone(s) to be accountable to.

Additionally, and perhaps and even bigger factor, is that all QOZ real estate investments will involve either ground-up development or "substantial improvement". 

As long as you have not negotiated a sale of a MH in the past 12 months you are fine. https://www.texasrealestate.com/members/legal-and-ethics/resources/legal-faq/manufactured-housing/

I find its kind of a progression.. you need a lot of capital for the note business the benefits of rentals is leverage of course.what i found was many did well as landlords then tired and just started to sell them off as they were retiring and note income worked for them.. and or they blended they had some rentals and had some notes. does not take a landlord that is suffering burnt out landlord syndrome but wants cash flow to understand how notes work.. but of course you have to choose wisely on the notes  for sure.. as it relates to BP  overwhelmingly the guys and gals on this site are going for bigger yields that they hope to make with NPN so they work for those.. and its not just passive income by any means its a business.. 

they were in business 20 some years took in 100 of millions in due diligence fee's at 5 to 10k a piece.. there targets were newbie developers who had bigger complicated projects that no one would fund when you have little to no experience.
