I am assuming that even if you strucutred it with a higher purchase price (85% of value) and pre-paid rent it would potentially still be frowned upon.

How many deals have they historically reviewed to find one purchase?

I recently watched a video on social media that mentioned the way he was buying properties and yielding the benefit of the sellers low interest rate is having the seller put the property in a trust and then purchasing the trust.

The last house I purchased was $227,500 and we put down $85K. 

We also need to add in escrowed taxes and insurance to the new terms, as previously the buyers were responsible for paying them, but we’ve recently had to take that over.Context:Subject property is a mobile home on land in the state of FL that is owner occupied by the family who purchased it from our LLC.

Don't be suckered into buying cheap properties - unelss you know exactly what you are getting into.Here's some copy & paste advice that applies to just about any Midwest rental market:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

We’re fortunate to have an above-average income and live well below our means.This summer, we’ll be moving to Detroit (PCSing in August), and we’ve saved about $120,000 to invest in addition to having funds set aside for the home we’ll purchase in Detroit.The reason I’m posting is that I’m struggling to decide how to best allocate the $120k.
