Flipping Mobile Homes...Does it work?

[Mark Devens]

There's a lot of discussion about flipping houses, but what about mobile homes? I'm just starting out in real estate, but to me it makes sense (at least for a little guy like me), because there's less money invested, the finished product sells for less than a house, and there's always somebody looking for cheap living that can't or doesn't want to get a huge mortgage. Obviously I'm not talking about putting $100k into a mobile home, but maybe $2500 and sell it for $4000? Has anyone ever done this? Advice would be great!

Thanks
