I've got a source that will loan on Owner-occupied double wides if they are no older than 1978 and were put on a poured concrete foundation when they were new.  

Vacancy rates vary widely by area, in our area most is less than 1% so do your homework on vacancy.

The 2% rule is widely debated here on BP, and honestly, is one of the reasons I've delayed buying property because I felt the other deals weren't "good enough" at 1.xx%.

My local Real Estate market (San Antonio)  is strong but I would like to protect myself from a downturn and I worry about hedging my bets with stock market investments that would also decrease in value if there were an economy-wide slowdown or recession.
