Building an RV Park from scratch under 50k?
just wondering if this is possible
Forum Discussion
There'd be numerous codes, regulations, and standards that would have to be complied with if doing it fully permitted and inspected. Some of them are:
The NEC has specific requirements for RV parks. How much is the power utility co. going to charge for a connection? Electrical alone would eat up a big chunk of the $50K.
There's NFPA 1194 "Standard for Recreational Vehicle Parks and Campgrounds" that covers fire protection and a number of other things.
In Texas there's TCEQ (Texas Commission on Environmental Quality) which covers water supply, wastewater and storm water disposal, garbage disposal and outdoor burning. 15 or more sites can be considered as a public water supply. Texas TCEQ
There's no contingency fund to put towards any unforeseen costs? There could very well be a whole lot of them you never knew of or thought about.
Has there been any analysis of projected income versus operating costs? According to one source of info. I read, it takes 125 sites to break even.
Any savvy investor wouldn't go near it.
