rehab 1955 Detroiter mobile home??
We purchased a duplex recently that has a small mobile home on the back of the lot with water, gas, electric hook up. We originally planned to tear it down and get rid of it, but are debating. Home needs painted but seems solid (metal) and has a good roof. Has a brand new furnace in it. Carpet was disgusting and ripped it out today. Very strong smell of cat urine that I am wondering if we will be able to eradicate. Windows are not in great condition, but seem okay. Our rentals are all nice, and this would definitely be a much lower end than any of our others, but we have actually had 2 people track us down as the new owners and ask if they can rent it. They haven't seen the inside, but still makes me think it is rentable with work. Probably would only charge $200-250 a month I am guessing.
If anyone has any before and after trailer rehabs, that would be an encouragement. LOL I am usually a turn-key buyer, so this project has me a little overwhelmed. Thoughts??
