Rent Increase
Is NC 30 day or 60 notice? I thought you only needed/required a 30-day notice. What Claude said-(First day using Claude instead of Chatgpt :)) For general NC month-to-month leases: The notice period for a rent increase on a month-to-month lease is typically 30 days. Legislative Reporting Service But for your MHP specifically: Under the North Carolina Mobile Home Park Act, landlords must provide mobile homeowners with a minimum of 60 days written notice before increasing rent. Zook Cabins So it actually depends on which type of tenant you're dealing with: Tenant who owns their home, rents the lot from you → 60-day rent increase notice (MHP Act applies) Tenant who rents the home AND lot from you → this gets murkier, but to be safe 30 days is the floor, and 60 is the safer choice since the lot is still involved My recommendation: keep 60 days in the lease for all rent increases. It's the safer, more defensible position and it actually helps you too — it gives you time to handle pushback or turnover gracefully. Would you like me to update the lease to clarify this distinction, or leave it at 60 days across the board?

@Kyle Grimm I've been experimenting with several AI tools recently. Claude is really good at writing and coding (or general technical things on a computer). ChatGPT is decent all around but its writing can sound robotic. It does generate decent images (I've used it a lot to create logo ideas that I fine tune in another tool). And then they both have little quirks like Claude couldn't accept a file upload larger than 31 MB, while chatGPT couldn't take more than 10 files (however small) at once. So when I was trying to aggregate a bunch of data into a spreadsheet I had to feed it uploads a few times. I think of each one as having a specialty and choose the one I want for the task.
Closing Costs
Is it typical for the buyer and seller to split closing costs 50/50?

I've seen it used as a lever for winning a competitive deal. Offer to cover closing costs to put yourself over the top. Or if there is something you really want that the seller is resistant to, then use closing costs as a way to get a concession.
Intro
Hi folks, I just joined to get more educated about owning MHPs. I own a small industrial property that I bought on seller finance and am self-managing. Now, I have turned my attention to property in areas farther from where I live (northern Virginia) in order to find better returns. I’m excited to get to know you all! Lastly, I am open to investing small-ish checks as an LP if you are raising money for a deal. I have learned a lot about other businesses doing that.
SFH in park
Hi friends! What kind of due diligence do you do on a SFH in a park? I found a small park (4 lots) with a SFH close to me. I know due diligence on MHs, just not SFH!

I agree with Caleb about hiring a traditional home inspector. But in my experience they catch 75%-85% of the stuff that is an issue. I have also had them miss things completely or simply say “oh I wasn’t able to look at that.” Think about what may be working now but could cause issues later. For example, uninsulated copper pipes in an unconditioned crawl space in cold climate … I wish I had caught that before needing an emergency plumbing repair. Big items are foundation, any brick that needs repointing, apparent water damage anywhere (ceilings, windows), yard drainage (water pooling close to the house in particular), age and condition of the roof, water heater, appliances, and HVAC system. When I walk into a house I immediately go to the electrical panel. If it is a rats nest inside then that usually suggests there is *something* else that needs to be found.
