(I came to many of the same conclusions as the people above did during the design process, and switched to a 12-foot wide non-container module by the end.)Anywho, I've been wanting to call Carl up to offer my design or other help, because I might have something to offer, and could also learn about development in the process.

It is funny how many people jump to the conclusion this will end up in court. 

My name is Armando Diaz I been doing residential,commercial NS mostly multifamily remodeling but for the last month I been going around personally and on the web absorbing information on the mobile home investment and I have come to the conclusion that it is a good way to start climbing to the top.

If you are reading these posts or blogs or listening to podcasts we can all come to the conclusion that you like the IDEA of owning real estate.

If you want to create a muddy mess let the water run in the bath tub for weeks until you flood / fill the septic tank and the ground turns soggy.  

At some point the listing agents are just going to start ignoring that agents offers if they are all low balls.I also think if you start assigning a value in dollars to your time, someone is going to quickly come to the conclusion that spending that time writing hundreds of offers to get a deal is going to end up paying themselves less than minimum wage when everything is said and done. 

@Jd Martin Thanks for the breakdown...classically spoken very much like someone peering over the fence at neighbors house and drawing all kinds of conclusions lol.

This means that you can check for name availability how I mentioned, but what the SOS tells you will obviously be conclusive.

I had read a handful of personal finance books before (favorite being The Richest Man in Babylon), and had come to the conclusion I could live a nice life, perhaps even retire somewhat wealthy, but I never even thought being young and wealthy was a possibility.

In conclusion, this sounded like a very risky deal from the beginning, however, I trusted my friend's judgment and gave him the benefit of the doubt, but it was to no avail as this just sounded too good to be true, and it was.
