You're a week late, your stuff's outside and the lock's changed. Mostly he rents to Mexicans who work in the carpet mills in Dalton GA. He's in the black in about a year and a half and the rest is gravy. His stepfather handles the maintenance and old boyfriend who's a big fellow, handled the collecting every Sunday.

They are QUITE the money maker if you don't mind dealing with the type of people who rent trailers

If this is a vacation type place, then I know nothing ;)
So he provides harbor for illegal immigrants. Awesome!

So if they don't pay, who do you run to? The cops? lol

You'd need the trailer park mafia
