That is great information. Thank you! I am not totally sure what it is now but I think it is 1" so I am presuming I am going to have to rerun the whole loop. That also makes sense because there is 2 elevations to the park and the line has decent pressure on the low end but on the upper end has very low pressure. I think In order for me to move forward I will just have to plan on running 2" minimum and maybe adding a pressure pump. This park is in a rural area on a lake and is in a prime location but there is literally like 1-2 plumbers that work the area and already told me some things that aren't congruent with the things I know from working with good plumbers in the Tulsa area. The owner ran all new pex lines a couple years ago so I don"t think they would have any blockage or anything probably just did it wrong from the get go. Looking at 2" PEX it is pretty pricy. Do you use PEX for that or is there another material you use for the main line going in? 

 Hey Mike, I am currently buying an RV park that was converted from a MHP. It used to be on well water and is now hooked up to city. I believe the current owner who ran the new water lines put in to small of lines because there is insufficient water pressure. There are 38 hook ups. What size is the main water line you run to your hookups? is there a good way of figuring this? 

Investment Info:

The purpose of this property is to cashflow. Thus, we paid cash for it. It is a DR Horton Newbuild

So I own ~5 acre of land, I am looking to develop the land for RV and Trailer Parking. Land is in South Houston not too far from major airport and there are a couple residential builds near by. There is one RV park not to far from me that is fully occupied.

I want to understand what is needed to stabilize the dirt lot for parking. My hopes is to rent out the lots for parking. What should I know when going through construction. I know I would need permits and fortunately Houston does not have zoning restriction.

My question is when working with contractors what should I know. I know I would need a Stormwater Detention. I got quotes from a couple contractor and they said I need 6"-8" of gravel for parking. Is that true? I cant find many resources. Also the quote that I got the material cost is ~2x what it should cost (I called a local supplier for gravel).

Financing is not a problem for me. I want to make sure I am not taken advantage of from the construction perspective. Would anyone happen to know a good contractor that does excavation and surface stabilization. 

Thank you!

Jordan, for the time being just Mobile homes, later perhaps parks. If you are looking at the north east Texas area let mew know if I can help.

Hello,

Has anybody successfully converted a MHP to an RV park. County is forcing us to shut down and I’m looking for options.
