@Adam S. update...I used the letter you sent me. i sent it to both property owners i paid the property tax for! The first was a smaller amount of about $450 and i still have had no response to my certified letters. The other property, on which i paid the initial tax and then a second year tax (about $5500) , responded to the City and paid pretty quick! I sent the letters this past october and by the end of Novemeber i had a check in hand and netted about $500+ in profit on the whole deal. These are both vacant pieces of land.
I really appreciate the letter and advice!

i agree with @William Allen , if you can find it within your circle, do that. I am from Louisiana and have always purchased my flips with conventional financing with smaller local banks. They usually do an in house in about 30 days, i didn't mind using conventional because starting off in flips it slowed me down and made me really think things through. after you have done a few, people around you will take notice and want to be a part of what you are doing and the money will be there... :)

Great question
i recently bought some tax liens in New orleans at the big tax sale through civicsource.com , but i purchased them on vacant lots because it was my first time and i wanted to see how it all worked out first. I paid the back taxes on the two properties which was about 3k altogether an I'm just sitting around waiting. Curious to see how it all turns out.

Frank is also hilarious so its fun also. They give you all the documents, and tools they use like contracts, list of all the parks in the USA and Canada with ph numbers. You can call them once you find a deal you can call them and run it buy them. They way over deliver!
Good luck
Thanks so much for the reply! I am looking at going to the one in november in Texas

Hi
I am looking to connect with other investors who are interested in Mobile home Parks. I have invested in Mobile homes for over 12 years, from Lonnie Deals to Rent to Owns, BUT i have always been just a boy with a dream to own a Park, either to develop one or buy an existing one. I am looking into MHU and am also wondering if it was a good experience for anyone who went. Thanks for any feed back or connections.
Have a blessed day
