I don't have the capital to get started now but have been learning all I can so when I'm ready, I'm 110% ready.I'd love to start walking through these properties I'm watching online.

With all of my capital to be taken up by the deal I am working now, I will have about 6-12 months to sit and learn.

He would like to sell his buildings, but doesn't want to incur capital gains tax, so he proposed a lease agreement to my brother: my brother and his partners (i.e., the 3 of us brothers) would lease an entire building from him and sublease the units and pocket the cashflow.My older brother put me in charge of doing the business and accounting research, so I started at our local library and quickly found Brandon Turner's books, as well as this website and podcasts.

Keep in mind every park is different, what your financing source is is important, what kind of capital your bringing to the deal, timeline of investment, and what overall exit plan of the park is for you as an investor based on your goals.
