What is the name of the park, what city, how much they want, why they sale, occupancy %(a lot of vacancy?), condition of park, what kind of work needed to bring it up, is it low maintenance? I might be interested. Please email me with contact info of the owner.
park owners want an offer - Posted by Bill ==NW OHIO

I sent an email awhile ago seeking info from PM about a particular MH here in the park that I live in.
I also made inquiry at the same time if the Park Owners would be willing to foot the bill for “moving & set-up” of homes to put on vacant lots.
Answers came back that owners would NOT pay for moving and set up. The manager did however ask me if I would be interested in making an offer on the Park!!!
I had no interest in becoming a Park owner, but it just may be worth looking into. Can’t hurt, huh?
Park has 45 spaces, all SW…older homes! Streets were just re-surfaced last fall!
I believe that some elecrical work and maybe some sewer work may be needed.
OR----leave it as is…and run it as current owners have til wife and I are too old to cut it anymore!!
Maybe just a few years!
Incidentally, the PM provided me with info on the home that I was originally inquiring about…
Has been vacant since last June…current owner had a buyer at one time, but there were back taxes and current owner refused to pay them, so buyer backed out.
Current owner then filed bankruptcy with discharge date of 2/6/06. PM also provided me with current owners Last known address!
Time to do some digging!

Bill, If you’re not interested in the park I’d like the same info JC is asking for. Thanks.

Bill,
If you’re already riding the horse it makes sense to own the ring, eh? And if you’re going to be a landlord, consider that not much goes wrong with dirt.
Get the numbers, bring them here, and we’ll walk you through it.
