The market here offers a lot of potential.I highly recommend making a trip here to get a feel for the different neighborhoods and understand where the best opportunities lie.

To me at my current knowledge level, this deal only works if taking over the loan - to limit the out of pocket money to acquire the property since the outside reno and new septic would take up the bulk of rehab costs. 

If you don't find the answer or even find new questions, there are tons of tons of knowledgeable people who are happy to help out. 

As for not feeling like it's the right time, I would urge you to focus more on the goals than your feelings. 

With one successful flip under my belt, I'm eager to connect with fellow investors and expand my knowledge and network in this vibrant real estate market.In addition to my passion for real estate, I’m also a skilled electrician.

Trying to get a split level (not a lot of sqft) on the market in the next three weeks and trying to decide on whether to open the wall between the dining and living room for a feel of openness or leave it as I have heard from two interior designers that the open concept is on the way out as we are more at home and liking our separate areas in the home.Pragmatically speaking the opening of the wall will be mostly a time drain with it being a load bearing wall and having to support the ceiling while rebuilding and all the drywalling necessary.

Since graduating in 2021, I moved to Washington, DC to pursue a civil engineering career and am now feeling like I am in more of a position to start learning and pursuing real estate investing seriously.

Quote from @Patricio Acosta: First comment I would say is do not buy something because it feels good.

@Lauren MerendinoI strongly believe that your chosen market should be somewhere that you can go to in person / have strong personal knowledge of / have family or a network in already.  

Do realize since they are mobile homes, and have VIN numbers you are not able to take out a tradional mortgage on them not to my knowledge.
