ANECDOTE

Doing Evictions And Rehabs With No Budget

  • On his first park Andrew executed evictions, filed 72‑hour notices, and hired day laborers because he lacked funds for lawyers and licensed contractors.
  • That hands‑on grind taught him landlord‑tenant law and on‑the‑ground park remediation.
ADVICE

Choose Investors Based On People Not Just Docs

  • When partnering with institutional capital, prioritize people over legal structure; good partners can be flexible and supportive.
  • Andrew found hedge fund partners helpful because they trusted him and funded his construction needs despite structural limits.
ADVICE

Insist On Project Management For Park Rehab

  • Build in-house project management for utility and unit work because standard GCs often won't handle mobile home specifics.
  • Andrew ran his own construction company to manage water, electric, septic and used‑unit installs until he could outsource project management.
