    I wonder what about starting your own mobile park from 0. Right now is hard to find deals or to find mobile parks.

    Just want to say a big "thank you!" to bigger pockets!!! Started listening to the podcasts 3 years ago and have been a dedicated listener while we get rid of our debt and about to buy our first property by the end of this year! Thanks again for keeping me motivated during this looooong waiting period......🤗

    The biggest thing I don't understand is why a park owner would not want POHs verses tenant owned homes. For apx twice the rental income. Brandon expresses this query too at 38:45

    • @JonathanZaniMHC
      @JonathanZaniMHC 7 місяців тому +1

      Because of refi or at time of selling. Banks don’t count POH when lending also they depriciate in value so even if your cash flow increases, the value of the homes decrease + expenses when switching tenants

    • @JonathanZaniMHC
      @JonathanZaniMHC 7 місяців тому +1

      He always comes in when buying a park thinking of where he has to take it to to sell it, he’s not planning on buying to keep for forever, so to be bankable for the future seller it has to be 80%+ occupied with if possible no POH

    Ok so almost every video I see about mobile home investing, actually talks about mobile home parks, rather than individual mobile homes. I guess that individual ones are not such a hot investment.

    I don't think he knows his camera is on. He looks like he's looking out a window and just thinks his audio is being broadcasted. However, he owns 20,000 lots so there is a good chance he looks where the hell he wants to look and doesn't care.
