Not sure if I'm in the right place or doing this correctly, but I am a new member and wanted to introduce myself.  My name is William Grant and I live in Fayetteville, NC.  I've owned all types of rental property but currently own and operate mobile home parks.  Always looking for new contacts, potential partners, or new deals.  Thanks for reading!

    @William Grant

    Hey Man, I hope all is going good with your REI world. I managed a mobile home park for a while it was close to 150 units. So I know a little of the good bad and the ugly. If I can ever be of any assistance please let me know as I am just a little south of you in ATL.

    In the meantime:

    Here are 7 tips to help you grow your business using BP:

    1. New to BP?


    2. Develop your own business strategy. -- Don’t just be a “jack-of-all-trades"

    3. Grow your business by developing your business plan. - Remember there is a difference between goals and a plan.


    4. Locate and attend several different local REIAs as they’re great opportunities to network and meet wholesalers, lenders, and contractors.

    5. Stay away from the “guru” sales-pitch events - they rarely increase your investment knowledge, they merely empty your wallet!

    6. Spend 30 minutes a day on Bigger Pockets by connecting with “colleagues,” perusing blogs and videos, and engaging with others on the forums:


    7. Set yourself up to receive free alerts to be notified of subjects that interest you:

    Thanks for the kind words and advice Andrew.  MHP's aren't for everyone that's for sure! What are you up to these days?

    Welcome to BP @William Grant, thanks for introducing yourself! It's great to have an experienced investor like yourself join our community. Glad to have you here! Maybe you can connect with @John Fedro, he's big on MH's.

    See you around the site.

    MHPs are outstanding investments when properly managed and not overpaid-for.  I learned the business from Frank & Dave and their predecessors at Mobile Home University.  I've acquired 3 MHPs over the past 7 years and am raising money from investors/co-owners for my 4th property.  Even though we generate returns in the mid-teens for our investors, there is still profit leftover for my partner and me.  Get educated about this unique business, and then tap outside capital to scale your operations.

    Your mileage may vary, but that's my 2 cents worth,
