When a mobile home is Real property, you have to perfect the lien at the Texas Manufactured Housing Division.

There are really great REI opportunities in different markets - markets in the Midwest and Southeast of the country are particularly lucrative - where not only are the purchase prices reasonable for most RE investors, but the homes are turnkey (new builds or completely rehabbed homes, tenant ready, systems 10 years of life remaining on them, property management teams in place) with appreciating home value AND appreciating rent.

What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

I really like Granite Selection in Elk Grove.

This is a fine example of where to research out of state investments as the housing prices to purchase are still reasonable and low (not like California where I am and entry level house SFR is a million dollars). 

Hi, I had a painter who seems inexperienced who painted my house( referred by one other good handyman who gave up after taking half advance saying he got big projects cannot do these small jobs).

We do recommend screwing a lockbox to the side of the house and putting a key in it as an emergency backup.You can use Turbo Tenant or ShowDigs to get agent showings.Maintenance while vacant will be challenging.

Hi Nancy, I have sold property for clients in Carrollton.  

@Luke Fruge you are in the right place to get started for sure!

You're gonna get your houses robbed a lot.
