Finding sellers
Some of the old school ways of finding mom n pop owners still work! When I say old school I mean 10 years ago LOL.

@Michael Pansolini you can zoom in google earth street view and call the number on the entrance sign. I actually assigned a deal that way awhile back with a $100k fee.

@Matt Fonk Awesome! It does work.
Infill: New vs Used
These are some of the conversations that unfold inside our group mentorship program: Question on the table: What is actually harder with infill, new homes or used homes? • Short answer from operators in the trenches: both. • New homes: • Usually easier logistically. • Factory delivery is cleaner and more predictable. • Still not foolproof. • Axle issues from the factory happen more often than people expect. • State code can trigger extra site prep depending on location. • Used homes: • Hardest part is sourcing them. • Facebook Marketplace becomes a daily habit. • You need homes that are worth moving, not just cheap. • Prep work matters. • Utilities must be disconnected. • Skirting, decks, tie downs, and steps all need coordination. • Transport requires the right contractors at the right time. • State specific nuance matters. • In places like Illinois, new homes can trigger heavier code requirements. • Used homes can often move in without upgrades that new homes require. This is why infill is not passive. This is why spreadsheets lie if you do not understand operations. This is why real operators talk through this stuff live. If you think infill is just buying a home and dropping it on a pad, you are underestimating the work!

@Ferdinand Niemann I’m going through this now. I brought in used homes but I’m wishing I would have went straight for the new homes.

@Tracy Moore I run test ads on Facebook in English and Spanish. Also, post fliers in Spanish and English. See which has the most demand. You can also infill slowly in the beginning to see where the demand is.
Broken Window Theory
By fixing broken windows and removing graffiti in neighborhoods with high crime.... crime was reduced..... Utilize this theory when turning around parks. Specifically with POHs you can fix and SET THE EXAMPLE for the rest of the community. This was something initially brought to my attention by @Ryan Narus, then again by @Kyle Grimm, AGAIN by @Dekel Saati who actually underwrites refurb for TOH when he takes over parks. It works. Be the change you want to see in the world. I am seeing it in real time at Brighton Court MHP and so is @Tiernan Laue. @The MHP Pros

We are currently power washing TOHs one at a time in our communities.

@Kyle Grimm No. We have a full time maintenance crew at this park. Normally we like to do a major value add as soon as we close. This park has nice roads and good landscaping so we consider this value add.
Meter freezing.
Best practices for keeping meters installed underneath trailers from freezing? Anyone use insulated or heated boxes?

My parks are in the Southeast so I'm probably not the best source but you can buy insulated boxes from metron for the meter bodies. We also always wrap the pipes and have plenty of shut off valves. we also keep spare meter bodies on hand, they are an easy swap.
Equity commission
Anyone ever given a broker equity instead of commission? Looking at doing that on a deal right now. Sub 10% equity in lieu of 4% commission

I’ve had them offer. It’s definitely something to consider.
