Forced Appreciation by Moving?
Started looking at mobile homes recently as an asset class and was surprised by the vast array of prices. If prices are so different in 2 areas, then why not buy a cheap mobile home in a worse area (say a bad mobile home park) and move it to a nicer park (55+?)?
It would seem that would be a good way to force appreciation ($20K+) while only accumulating the costs to move up the place and renovate it ($10-15K?). Are there laws restricting this / too much headache?
