Well I've had custom quotes ranging from 3k to significantly above already and it didn't cost me a dime to speak to their attorney. 

Select a larger area that is at least 30 minutes in each direction. with maybe a hand full of exceptions I am pretty sure you would be hard pressed to find a mix that represents the demographic cross section of this country and therefor a wide range of neighborhoods.

Or are you wholesaling Manufactured homes that have been tied down and made permanent? 

When adjusting for the DP assistance you mentioned, you seem to be approximately in that range!

You can do well here with a purchase price in the $500k+ range and a furnishing budget of no less than $35k is my recommendation for a DIYer.

If the manufacturer went belly up, I was going to be out all my money?

Right now our rental loans are in the mid 6% range without a buydown.

They know the tenant base, median rents of different areas, how much to increase rent each year, ranges of repair costs (ex: tenant calls and says AC isn't working, no hot water, faucet is leaking, the HVAC system goes out).

I like Gulf Shores because I am looking for high-appreciation markets that can still generate a minimum 15% cash-on-cash return (CoC).I scrolled through the Deal Finder to review some deals with my set parameters: 4+ bedrooms ✅3+ bathrooms ✅No condos ✅View (sort of) ✅My price range ✅This listing sparks my interest.

Midlothian, Decatur, Weatherford, Sherman depending on your price range and age preferences.
