I think it all comes down to personal preference and appetite.

Financing of any kind is going to be a challenge since lenders have a very limited appetite for unique properties and MHs in particular.

Your bank even if they do not have the loan yet might finance it if you have a bunch of deposits with them already.You would need to put together a little package on the property and bring around to local to regional banks and credit unions to see their appetite for it.

But that's wrapped around my personal preference, others may disagree and have more of an appetite for those properties.

I already have full POA, but after talking with our Title Agent after our most recent closing, using my POA in this situation might be viewed as self-serving and lead to issues or delays with refinancing, depending on lenders' attention to detail and/or appetite for such a situation.I'm looking for a way to stay with a R&T refi and not cause heartburn for lenders. 

I have two properties in Toronto (one being my principal residence) and the cap suppression is making Toronto way to expensive if you are trying to cashflow.  

When things go bad....recession, market collapse, bubble burst etc, all of a sudden, a bank's lending appetite will change.  

If I had trouble renting the house last time I know I was probably at the top of the market, if I rented it in 2 days I was probably a little low.Previous rental results with my other houses -I've noticed with SFH's location can mean a lot of different things to different renters, sometimes they just want to be on the south side of town on a nice block and sometimes they want to stay in the same 3 block radius so using nearby results is great, but even houses across town can help me understand what the appetite is for people in my city.

You might want to get to know bankers in your local area, and determine their appetite for lending on the properties that interest you.  

The community is great and there is endless information.I would love to connect with you to see what your exact appetite is for the raw land you're looking to purchase.
