But to be fair, besides people not being happy with those kinds of houses anymore, builders couldn't build them and make any money due to high costs of planning, permitting, sewer and water hook ups, electric hook ups, etc.Well, we do have this Tiny House fad right now, but can someone explain to me how these are any better than an old fashioned trailer?  

A state like California that has ocean, wooded forests, flat land that would be good farm land if it were not for water issues, and hot, dry desert all within a single state has many different markets.  

My total cash flow went from $1200/month off that one ho Se to mow $3500/month by doing this.

Second, I pay for all utilities (Electric, Gas, Water, Yard Maintenance, Internet, etc.) and have it included in the rent price.

What would a water heater replacement cost for OOS investor?

Pros could be: Clean water + tub for each guest; on a well, so no water waste concern; can make it design-y + cute; can be used winter (hot water) + summer (cool water); goes better with forest location of the home than a traditional hot tub might; will hold same number of guests as hot tub would (2 people in each tub).In researching I have seen some people on Airbnb have these checked in amenities as 'hot tub', some 'private hot tub'.

@Laura Casner Do you know how far it is to the water table?

If its bare dirt , it just needs to be raked flat , anybody can lay sod , that isnt the issue , its the 3 weeks after its been laid making sure its watered enough .  

Thats not surprising since there is no electricity or hot water.

On REOs, HUDs, VAs and other you can get inside but most of the time the utilities are shut off, and heat has been off for a long time at least one winter, in some cases more than one winter and are possible freeze damage to water pipes, hot water heat pipes and even boilers/hotwater heaters.
