I have the opportunity to buy an off market double wide manufactured home for half of market value, but because it was built prior to 1976 I can’t get anyone to lend on it. Seller is hesitant to do seller financing as he is 71 years old, and a personal loan isn’t an option because I’m buying real estate 

Please help

Hello all, I am new to the investing world but have done a lot of research myself. My wife and I are looking to invest out of state for our first property and have narrowed it down to either Colorado or Arizona. I am leaning more towards Colorado and would like to find a property manager out there that can help aid me in my research. I am more than willing to pay a monthly fee for your help and expertise.

I am currently in the process of getting preapproval, but when my lender ran my credit, he got a message that my equifax inquiry was registered as fraudulent.

I called equifax and they were unable to even locate me in their system as if I haven’t established any credit.

Because I do in fact have 6 years of credit history, they requested I submit an appeal containing:

- a letter explaining the situation and my intentions with buying a property.

-a copy of my social

-a copy of my D.L.

And mail it to their PO Box in Georgia.

I sent the info right away today with priority mail, as they informed me it will take them 5 days to reach a decision and then they will reply by mail.

I’m worried I will not be able to get competitive loan offers since my 15 day timer is currently ticking.

Has anyone ever encountered this? Is there a quick solution? My lender has never come across it despite decades of experience.

Any and all help is appreciated. Thanks for reading if you made it this far, I appreciate you.

I am also wondering this and planning on buying in LV within the next 1-2 years

Commenting so I can follow the thread

Thanks for the question!

My name is Parker Snow, I recently upgraded to pro, and just wanted to take a minute to introduce myself.

I am 23yo living in California working as a pest control operator. I have my Branch 1 and Branch 2 licenses with the Structural Pest Control Board and a Ca Fish and Wildlife Trapping License. Currently, I am working in sales full time for my company and performing inspections of many landlords homes as well as commercial properties.

I plan on purchasing my first deal very within the next 1-4 years and have spent the last year researching and learning all that I can. 

I am currently looking for a 2br with a 1br 1ba back unit in california that I can house hack, or a buy and hold that I will live in until I make the move out of state and either rent, 1031, or heloc that property. 

I currently live in Anaheim CA and am eager to learn all that I can and Im hoping to find a local REIA, or even meet local investors looking for free pest control inspections and work on their projects in exchange for an eye in on the project. Please feel free to connect or message me, im always willing to buy a dinner or something for your time!

Nice to meet everyone!

Any advice on best sites for these numbers? Also any other helpful sites for analyzing deals would be helpful. Thanks in advance!

@Cassi Justiz completely agree! Talks of suspending mortgage payments over here in California. They have already banned evictions here.

@Scott Kaczmarek

Thanks for the reply, I will definitely keep this in mind!

@Perry Livingston @Derek Harris

Thank you for the replies!

This has been very reassuring and im going to start taking action in developing systems today. (While still analyzing deals)

Appreciate the help!

I haven’t closed on a deal yet, but I’d like to start taking action developing systems for my future business. Is this too early? If so, when should I start?
