Site planning for infill
How are people measuring/diagramming/marking out sites for infill? In my state (PA) we have to drill and pour concrete footers. So for my permits (and for my excavation guys) I have to diagram exactly where the home will go in my lot and then identify exactly where the footers need to be poured in order to fit the home properly and comply with footer spacing requirements, etc. Granted I’m a beginner, but this has turned out to be unexpectedly time consuming, and I can’t imagine people doing lots of infill are going through this process for every single lot. Or are they? @Kyle Grimm you always seem to be moving homes in, what say you?

You can see that’s pretty much unintelligible. So that’s why I have trust issues. I got pretty much all the measurements I need now for the vacant lots I have. I’ll be able to do permit drawings myself and I think I can just send the approved drawings to my excavation guy and he will handle it, even if I don’t go and mark the exact locations of the footers for him. But it’s still a roll of the dice that he gets it right. And if I buy more parks with infill in the future it would be nice to know if there’s an easier system than doing all this myself. I guess finding someone competent to go out and take accurate measurements is the best way? Which is why I asked if anyone is using a surveyor to do their site planning for infill.
Champion?
How do we feel about Champion Homes? There’s a manufacturing facility in Indiana close to me. I don’t care for them but wanted to get everyone else’s opinions.

I just had a brand new Champion home installed in my park and it seems pretty nice, at a decent price point. Not sure about durability or anything because this is my first one. But I’d live in it!
Complainers!
Why is it that tenants complain about a problem, and then complain about the way you choose to fix the problem? Many of my tenants complained the park is too dark, so now I’m spending thousands to put in street lights. And now I’m getting bombarded with complaints about where the street lights are located! Can’t win. 😞 Sheds light on why some landlords don’t even try.

@Michael Pansolini I’m down with whatever. Sticking to NJ is just a little easier on a school night. Plus those tunnel tolls are getting ridiculous!
