"[Larger deals and ground up developing mobile home parks] really need to be a hundred units or higher to make the numbers work, and 250-500 is the sweet spot for development and because of the cost of development." - Jim Glasgow

"The cost of the home, single wides are going to vary from installed with skirting tied down, with a storage room in the backyard, front porch, back porch, two car parking space and we're looking at about $60,000-$80,000 on a single and we're looking to from $70,000-$110,000 on a double." - Jim Glasgow

"It's rapidly becoming the in-thing to do and it's going to be happening all over the United States. Over the next five years, you're going to see a lot of new mobile home park developments." - Jim Glasgow

"When you're buying into a development, you're buying the wholesale. You're not paying retail." - Jim Glasgow
