There are professional MHP brokers who know essentially every 50+ pad property in the United States. 

For example lets say they have 100 Pads could someone buy like 10 off of them.

They told me they took Pad Split to court over doing this but the owner didn’t show up in court.

I assumed 10% of the sale price: $200,000 × 10% = $20,000.Cost pad: We’ve completed over 600 renovations and there are always surprises.

So, 10% × $200,000 = $20,000.Closing Costs: I will assume the closing costs (to buy) are 3% of $200,000, or $6,000.Cost pad: There are always surprises, so you need to include a pad (buffer for unexpected costs).

I've gone through pad split, roomies.com, spare room.

How many pads?   

My goal is to transition away from active landlording toward more passive income streams.I'm eyeing building (or possibly buying and expanding) a small mobile home park from scratch—thinking 4-10 pads—where I can live in one unit (or on-site) and rent out the rest for lot rent only.

Something I’m seeing more of lately with BRRRR investors isn’t deal flow — it’s refinance friction.The buy and rehab go fine.The numbers look solid.Then the refi doesn’t come back the way people expected.And the reason usually isn’t the property.It’s tighter underwriting.Lenders are looking harder at:Insurance costsReal, stabilized rents (not pro forma)DSCR margins after refiClean documentation of rehab expensesA year or two ago, some of this slid by.In early 2026, it doesn’t.The BRRRR investors who are still moving smoothly are adjusting early — padding their numbers, documenting everything, and assuming more conservative refi terms from the start.BRRRR still works.But it’s less forgiving if you’re cutting things close.For those running BRRRRs right now — what’s been the biggest surprise at the refi stage?

Has anyone tried a pad split property in the Jacksonville area?
