Hello BP,
I am a Los Angeles investor and first time I get approach with what looks to be a good deal, a material home (mobile home) located in lake hudges California. My question is how can I evaluate this deal to determine if is a good deal. According to the seller they estimate this home to be value at about $85k, and they are desperately looking to get cash at $40k.
Any advise on how I can look at this deal, evaluate and determine if this is a deal. Given is a mobile home not sure how to derive to ARV and or look at compatibles for an assessment. Any advise well appreciated

check MH Village and other sources for comps and active listings, it’ll give you insight as to what it’s worth. As for exit strategies, you can fix n flip or sell on a note (seller financing, you are the bank). There is a great book on mobile homes called Deals on Wheels with some very creative strategies.
