Deal stage
Find
Everything between "I want to buy a park" and a signed contract. Brokers and data providers to find the deal, then the inspectors, environmental firms, appraisers, and title companies that tell you whether it is the deal the broker says it is.
Sourcing
Commercial real estate brokers (investment sales)
Coming soonInvestment-sales brokers who list and sell small-balance commercial property. Not leasing agents. Also the first call when it is time to sell.
MHP / RV park brokers
Coming soonBrokers who specialize in mobile home parks, RV parks, and campgrounds. This is a small, national market: a few dozen firms handle most of the trades, and the good ones know which parks will hit the market before they do. Use this list to get on their buyer lists, and again when it is time to sell.
Self-storage brokers
Coming soonBrokers who specialize in self-storage facility sales.
Property data & off-market lists
Coming soonOwnership data, off-market lists, and skip tracing for sourcing directly from owners. PropertyRadar, Reonomy, CoStar, and the list-building tools around them.

Coming soonMail houses, cold-call and text services, and list brokers for reaching owners before a broker does.
