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

Start getting your situation less debt ridden by paying down or on your next investment put more cash down to make it highly intrinsic. 

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.

As a US citizen I have an SSN, file taxes every year on my foreign employment income, hold US-domiciled assets (stocks, IRA, 401k), and I have a ~15 year credit history with a decently high score.

You mentioned price, are you too high?

When going for a HELOC, aim high on your home’s value — let the appraiser bring it down to what it's actually worth rather than underestimating it yourself.Cash is king.

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.

Then an appraisal works to my benefit and the quality of the property would be very close (as I said the property I purchased had relatively cosmetic renovations such as painted cabinets).

(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.)

If you need an attorney group to help you structure the right entities for you, we use and highly recommend, Anderson Business Advisors who made the video I have linked above.As for the pet question, all the stats listed above are why we allow pets unless a homeowner insists a no pet policy.
