There's a very specific ways to calculate FHA income, and it will be highly dependent on how the deal and your ownership is structured.

I'm a Project Manager at an Architectural Firm specializing in Custom High-End Homes. 

Hey @Jeff Ryan, Let's say the mobile is worth 120k (which seems really high for a 25 year old double wide).

They also have calculators to analyze deals, and I highly recommend you start this as soon as possible, even if you are not ready to buy.

If you are able to lock up deals and you mess up the repair estimate (like most wholesalers), no one is going to buy it and you will be buying too high.

I highly recommend going with a LOCAL LENDER ie in the same state, and preferably from the same area of the state you are looking.  

.- If interest rates remain high, this is further upward pressure on rents in the near-term, as the alternative to renting - buying a home with a mortgage, is expensive - this should increase demand for rentals. - Rents are also a function of supply - 2024 saw the most new construction of multifamily units in American history (nearly 575,000 estimated 2024 deliveries of new multifamily inventory), and 2025, while not a record setting year, will see deliveries top 500,000 again - a huge supply increase. 

(Maybe the seller has a great interest rate, but you would have to pay twice that amount which wouldn't be profitable.)11) Crime in the neighborhood. 12) High turnover in tenants (raising your expenses.)

I would venture to say very few landlords correctly hold their deposits based on local landlord/tenant law but as long as the money doesn't walk away and is not wrongly withheld from tenants its highly unlikely wrongfully storing the funds will become problematic.

Do you know that OO has many high LTV options?
