This is available or you bought it? How many occupied lots, what was the lot rent, what is the source of utilities and who pays?

Quote from @Bruce Woodruff:

You're also incorrect about recidivism amongst SOs. It is at 4 out of 10 according to people who would know. @Ken M. was right.

So ok, not 100%, but 40% is waaaaay too much too take a risk on.

 This also requires a bit of digging. Sex crimes are some of the hardest to prove, especially when the victims do not want to come forward out of shame or intimidation. It is possible that someone continues to commit these acts with more sensitivities to not get caught than when they first got caught. A friend of mine was assaulted and the cops basically said they couldn't do anything since she waited a week and it was just a he said-she said thing. Now Jose Enciso is walking free without a care in the world.

Quote from @Bill B.:

It may also depend if they are paid per hour or per job. I can tell you first hand that the people building new houses in my sub-division are here 7 days a week. And if you start talking about roofers the nails guns start darn close to 7am and run until sunset. Certainly it’s not the same guys working all those hours. But work’s getting done. 

But I think the biggest companies and the smallest companies run different shifts than a solid “get the job done middle of the road sized contractor”. Honestly, If you like the timeline it doesn’t matter if they work 1 or 7 days a week. Just get a timeline before they start. If it’s 3 months or 12 weeks. Get a 3 week, 6 week, 9 week “goal”/were on track estimate from the contractor. If they want to get paid more often get those goals written down at that interval and pay when that works completed. Don’t get too far ahead!

The time and cost estimate accuracy is way more important to me than the work schedule. The only way I’ll know they’re way behind before it’s too late is if they told me where they’d be at that time. 

I assume you talked to previous customers and looked at their work. 


 It could very well be the same guys. A smart construction company knows not to do too many roofs during the summer due to the health risks, so they will bank them up quite a bit in the cooler seasons (winter is usually too rainy). Roofers definitely operate on a feast and fast cycle. That's not saying they don't do roofing in the summer. The tempo slows down for companies with a good reputation at least.

Quote from @Deborah Wodell:

Yeah, being a manufactured home does limit lender options, but there are still possibilities. I’d be happy to take a look and see what we can get for you. Based on similar deals I’ve worked on, the quotes you’ve received so far seem pretty standard. 


 Let's run it.

I tried editing the above post, but it looks like it never updated. To clarify, this is a doublewide manufactured home on almost 3 quarters of an acre. This will cut out a lot of lenders. 

Post: Will Population Decline Affect Housing?

Quote from @Devin James:

There’s been a lot of talk about declining birth rates in the U.S., how will this impact housing demand in the long run?

I brought it up to a friend this morning, saying I was concerned about what a smaller population could mean for the market.

He made a great point: immigration will offset that decline.

Fewer people being born, but potentially more people moving in.

Has anyone else thought about this when looking ahead at the housing market?


 This is on my mind a lot as well. This is also why real estate isn't built up too much at once and comes and goes in waves. RE is a very a depreciable asset. It requires a lot of updates and maintenance. Those people who think they will automatically get $800,000 for an aging house were right in 2020 but not today. Those houses very often just sit and rot, get destroyed and turn into empty lots. The supply and demand move in tandem with a lag. Scarcity is built into the whole system. As 30% of the population goes into the next phase, there will be opportunities to buy and markets to run from for sure. 

Demographics is destiny.

Florence, AL is turning around its aging problem through new transplants while Huntsville, AL is trying to stem the new development because there's too much housing and jobs here and not enough infrastructure when it comes to schools, healthcare, etc. Like others pointed out, this will not be a collective downfall across all areas of the US. There will be a pull and tug and various areas.

I keep running into a road block. I am on my first BRRRR and the issue is lenders keep only wanting to lend on 80% of the purchase price and not the actual appraised value, which would keep my money tied up on the rehab portion as well as 20% of the purchase price. Is there a way to get the 80% of the appraised value out? Is BRRRR dead with institutional lenders? Or am I missing something?


My personal credit score is a 780 and I have multiple other properties but still not busting the DTI metric.

@Jefferson Black- thanks ..based on the post I am not sure if the MH is your primary home or an investmenet property ?? if its an investmenet property - there are not many ( if any) lenders doing regular or DSCR loans on rental MH homes


 Sorry for the confusion. It's an investment property.


You can finance manufactured homes with a DSCR loan. the max LTV is 65% for both purchase and refinance. It also cannot be on a land lease.


 Do you do these loans? I have one I need done


 Yes


 Im shooting you a message about a deal I am currently working. I believe it fits your parameters.
