Thinking of Investing in Mobile home,any advice?
Hey I'm 20 years old and live in southeastern Louisiana. I have a good job and have been able to save up a good bit of money. I found a local selling his mobile home for a really cheap price ($2500). It's currently in a nice park where the rent is 300/month. Its 65x14 also. The guy said it had all the subfloors replaced with plywood and it needs new flooring/carpet. Also roof had a leak he repaired but he never fixed the ceiling inside of the home so it'll need sheetrock/patch. I was planning on just staying In it a couple of months and fixing it up a little until I find a new tenant to lease to and using that revenue to put towards a nicer apartment. Actually it's currently occupied by a family and maybe i'll even just let them continue to rent it and save that money up. I was just wondering if this sounds like a good investment for the price. I'm new to real estate but have been wanting to get into it since high school and I was just wondering If this was a good start. Any tips or advice.
