We converted a old restaurant on the property to a coworking lounge, redid the pool and built out the roof to a entertainment center with fire pits, lounges, bubble chairs, barbeque, large screen TV, music, yoga mats and amazing views of the ocean and city lights.It is designed for coworking/coliving for business professionals and entrepreneurs who want to...Live where they work.

@Nathan Frost lot to cover, please DM to schedule chat!

The 20 years covers your kids potential needs.  

Time to close, cost of capital, & their requirements - there's a few that cover detroit & will lend up to 75% of ARV, 90% of purchase price + 100% of rehab costs

I breakdown my budgets by Category (Roofing, Siding, Painting, Electrical, etc.) 

@Jewell ArceneauxHow to drive ARV (my opinion)Improvements that drive the ARV the most: Roof, New Kitchen & Bathrooms, Flooring, PaintImprovements that DON’T drive the ARV as much: Windows, Landscaping, Driveway, Rough Plumbing & Electrical

As I mentioned above, the risk of being sued, found guilty, and fined more than your insurance will cover is almost non-existent. 

To them a 5 year old roof is in good shape for the near future the same as a 18 year old roof.

Water leaks, problems under the trailer ie insulation falling, a tub cracking, a new roof, frozen/cracked pipes (usually in January- and plumbing companies simply will not respond to mobile homes), rotting siding, bad exterior doors etc. 

About 20% use DSCR (usually 20-25% down) and the rest are cash or hard money or something else.For $325k purchase:1) As a broker I would negotiate down as its been on the market a while and its especially now in holidays)2) I would also negotiate seller paid closing cost credits, most loans allow 3% which should cover most or all of that.3) Assuming you paid $325k but got closing costs covered I would anticipate a minimum of $32,500 down and maximum $65,000 down depending on lending product chosen.4) Remember you still must furnish and I use $20/ft as a safe estimate to fully outfit an STR property.Best of luck!
