Honest title: Business owner sells business, uses proceeds to become a property developer and build a trailer park.

Honestly what's wrong with making a trailer park?

Have you been to a trailer park?

[–] sosodev@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I’ve been to several and they tend to be decent low-income housing. Quality can vary a lot but I don’t think we should be for cheaper housing and against options that provide it.

There's several segments done about the atrocious practices of trailer parks. If you do any research into how predatory it is, you wouldn't be so excited about it.
