Buying property and renting an rv?

Hey all, new to the forumn not so much to Rving. This might be in the wrong section if so i'm sorry i couldn't really find an appropriate section for this. I was pondering the possibility of starting small with a small piece of property somewhere and putting a renovated camper on it and renting it out. Eventually the goal would be to have a handful of properties and campers. How would one even start? obviously I would need electric and water and was looking into larger above ground septic tanks. Besides the initial property costs whar kind of costs would be associated with this? and what all would I really need to get this started.
  • Don't get ahead of yourself... You'll need to know of any zoning regulations in the area where you're buying the land, what uses it can be put to, and what permits are needed. You'll also need someone, likely a knowledgeable accountant, to advise you on creating a business plan so you know where your money needs to go. It would be wise early on to also discuss your plan with a commercial insurance agent so you'll have an idea of the costs involved. And most importantly, find a good lawyer to advise you on any contracts and other legal matters. What you're talking about is building a business with all the issues that come with that.
