The market is turning to a sellers market and the time will come soon that there may no longer be any great deals in the market - at that point I would still rather invest in securities instruments (mutual funds, REITs, index funds) or another investment vehicle.

A lot of investors I come across don't consider the benefits or are simply unaware of some of the best financial planning strategies out there especially when it comes to estate planning and tax implications, working an insurance policy as a creative investment vehicle, leveraging debt, and using things like Charitable Remainder Trusts.

Those flipping mobile home via Lonnie Deals, Lease Options, Rent to Owns, Retail Installment Contracts, Personal Property Trusts, or whatever other vehicle is used to convey the property, while TRYING to stay compliant, should all take note of Ken Rishel 's comments on this subject.

I don't want to sell it because I want this to be a long term investment vehicle.
