I have a phone consult with a tax attorney cpa tomorrow, hoping to determine capital gains if we sell but wanted to get some thoughts first. 

I recommend that you consult with a tax accountant specializing in real estate taxation.

I would consult a real estate lawyer since I am not one. 

I would find an accredited land consultant and ask them to advise you.  

If you don't already have a preferred 1031 intermediary to work with, we'd be happy to give you a free consult whenever you're closer to making a decision. 

talk to the dept of health first (records requirements etc), establish what upgrades/maintenance required, line up a reliable repair/handyman/type person, consult lawyer, and then make your offer, see if you can buy the land it's on via lot line adjustment (ideal scenario). a lot to be aware of, such as system upgrades or county code changes bringing in the requirement to add metered connections to an older small system, for just one example.Otherwise- owner doesn't want to manage, I doubt you really do either but could be wrong. 

I can tell you if you are not an attorney you would be running afoul of California foreclosure consultant registration laws if you applied your scenario to a borrower in foreclosure.

My brother and I (who both have history of doing multiple live-in flips over the years) recently consulted with an attorney, started an LLC, purchased the BP state-specific forms, and have purchased one single-family rental thus far and are closing on a second singe family property that will be a flip later this month.

I'm consulting with legal to ensure I'm not breaking any laws.
