Options: 1: I try to develop one of the two current vacant lots that I own using a mobile home to bring in more rental income without needing to get a new mortgage.

.- RV and Mobile home parks.

Do manufactured/mobile home dealers provide seller financing option to buyers? 

(I can just do more tIRA withdrawals to tweek AGI to suit)2.) 5 yr carry forward of excess deductions - (could use to draw down ~$800k tIRA BEFORE RMD or more Roth rolls)Situation: Very desirable but very hard to sell income property (older (1979) small, low value Mobile home,(home = ~1/6th the value of property - Banks don't lend with that ratio) Beautiful acreage, (3) large shops, pond, barns, Very livable cabin (knotty pine!)

21st century mobile home mortgage How did you add value to the deal?

But I think we all agree that it's easy to get burned in these midwest markets that are attractively priced.

Does anyone know of a reliable mobile home investor/wholesaler?

It has nothing to do with how good they are but might be an indicator that they are running a good business where they get to pick their clients.I have seen many reviews or burn posts here totally messing up a firms reputation where it did not seem the vendor did anything wrong and that it was mostly a highly picky client.

For whatever mix of these factors, the property burned through its cash reserves and has slightly negative cash flow.  

Examples are mobile home parks, RV parks, and golf courses where the value of the property is not primarily derived from building(s) but rather from the improvements to the land.
