TOH Conversion Strategy
Has anyone successfully gone through the process of buying an all POH community and converting it to TOH? If so, I'd love to chat.

Yes. It’s not an easy task. You need to have a great market with plenty of buyers. I bought an 80 unit all poh park and sold all the homes off in under a year. Hispanic buyers, older homes with low prices. Run constant fb marketplace ads

@Michael Pansolini I can do that. Straightforward. Same formula Ryan uses with a few market tweaks
ILC Survey Negotiation
We asked a seller to pay for an ILC survey but he doesn't want to. I think it may be important to know the boundaries and to confirm whether the MHs are within the park's boundaries, etc. It seems risky for us to pay for the ILC and then have to back out for some reason, now we are out even more in DD costs and the seller gets a free ILC. Is there a work around? or compromise?

I always ask for it but have never gotten a seller to pay for a survey. If you have concerns about lines get it. If your lines aren’t fuzzy and the title company is good then it’s possible it’s not needed.
Home Equity as Down Payment?
Under contract for another mobile home park in Nebraska and our bank said they would consider using another one of our owned real estate as our down payment. This is a small park and the down payment would be about $45,000. If the bank agrees to use that equity in my home as a down payment instead of cash, is that something I should consider? Or is that a terrible idea?

Normally this is a bad idea if you’re speculating. But it’s indifferent on cash flowing assets. The cash flow should pay the debt and your plan should involve a refi in the near future which could repay the asset secured debt. In general, it is more risky to collateralize an asset to secure another asset. You are risking 2 assets vs one with a cash down payment. The more collateral involved the happier the bank will be but the less happy you will be. But I have sold primary residences, businesses, liquidated 401k accounts all to buy cash flowing parks. All of that was high risk. But “burning the boats” is a force multiplier and has been used by almost every successful person in history at some point.
Evictions...
Month 3 of mobile home park ownership... woohoo! At what point do you evict TOH's? We have two tenants: one paid $200 for July (less than half of rent), nothing in August so far)... the other nothing in August yet but paid July with a late fee. Our property management company wants to do a "7 day notice to quit", but is it better to try to work with the tenants on a payment plan? Or is that a long term disaster?

Evict now. Not paying rent is theft. I evict on average 4-5 toh a year and they’re always shocked when the judge says get the f out. TikTok and Covid still has people acting and thinking stupid
Warranty After Closing and Survivabilty
There is portion of our addendum to the state contract that a seller has refused but seems pretty standard in real estate. We basically asked that Seller’s representations, warranties, covenants, and disclosure shall survive Closing for twelve months and he said no warranties past closing. Is this a deal killer? Concerning?

No warranties past close. It’s unrealistic on these properties. This isn’t a house. If title is good and insured, the rest is on the buyer to inspect thoroughly. As is is the norm. I would not accept anything else as a seller and I expect that as a buyer as well
