Also how do i figure out costs of buying them? Any round about estimates per unit? Do they offer financing? Does my credit score matter? Can i buy the units under my name or do i have to create an LLC or DBA?

I want to know more about buying apartment units. I have no idea where to start. I heard if you buy apartment units (if I'm using the right term) you can live in one of the units and charge others what they are supposed to pay, raise rent in future etc...

where do i get started?

who can point me in right direction? What are some troubles i may have along the way? 

maybe i can learn to fix up the apartments myself to save having to spend money on a contractor to fix it? I have no knowledge here and looking to learn all I can. Thanks!

Are mobile homes and manufactured homes a good idea to buy and rent out to others?  They seem like a fairly cheap way to start? Or am i wron

Where is a good starting point ?

what potential dangers i may  run into while trying this? 

Working on fixing my credit since my credit is trash. But i know of some mobile homes that aren't to expensive i can put my name on and rent out to others.
