Finding Used or Abandoned Mobile Homes to Buy in North Carolina

[John Jacobus]

We have a mobile home park in Fayetteville, NC that we’re trying to fill with 20 used / new homes.  We have engaged 21 Mortgage and are in the process of registering for the CASH Program.  However, we don’t think the market can support a rapid infill of all new homes.  As a result, we are looking for used mobile homes to buy, rehab and rent.

Does anyone have experience finding, buying, rehabbing and renting used mobile homes?  Any advice on the best way to go about this and the best source of leads?  What are the best advertising channels?  Who’s doing this at volume (5-10 homes)?  What are the lessons learned?
