We are in the process of developing a park. Westernrvparkowners numbers are close to what we are coming up with for the sites. Office, store, rec area,pool, etc, we are looking at 400k. My brother/partner is a contractor so savings there.
One of the mistakes I see people making is building where there is no reason for anyone wanting to stay. Just because you own a piece of property doesn't mean it is a good location for a park.
We are also going to spend time and money marketing beginning a year before opening. A good website with a proper marketing plan and budget will pay dividends.
