No, none of the above is relevant to your problem, speaking as an accountant. the only thing that possibly wasn't done and should have been done is the bank account should have been reconciled. April's bank statement should have been reconciled by May 15th. If it had been you would have found the error much sooner.

No, we rent the spaces. Give it a shot, John. Ours are almost all '06 FEMA trailers.

I rent travel trailers in a park and get around the same rent and even more than comparable 2 BR apts. now the trick that I use to do that is to charge weekly. I get much more that way than I could with monthly rentals. My renters are truly awesome. It has been a great experience. I have eight now

Angela, you need to find the rents for an avg 2 bedroom and see if that's what comparable 3 br MHs rent for. Also you're going to need to shop around and see what MHs are selling for in your area. How new are the homes?

I have them all deposit at my bank. I give them a supply of deposit slips. I write their name on them.
If they can't get to the bank till after work they have to get a money order and put it in the night depository.
Works awesome. I have 8 units and we charge weekly so it's a lot of payments.
Only had one question it and he was a punk. But he eventually complied. Lol
