My new venture is as a Roof Maxx roof rejuvenation dealer operating in Central Virginia from the Shenandoah Valley to Richmond. 

I used to have a car lot but got tired of the bad rap car dealers have and selling $2k-4k cars they are all junk.

That's like buying a car from the dealership, and then finding a friend who would pay more, back out of your contract and then let the dealer sell it to them... that's ludicrous. 

Their number is (307) 857-6001https://www.manufacturedhousin...There will likely be regulations related to you being a dealer as well as the loan origination side.

Granted, the article is from 2020, and I have not dug into the raw data personally, I do trust that academic research using data from the US Bureau of Economic Analysis, assembled by an author associated with a very established newspaper (The Plain Dealer) is probably pretty sound.https://www.cleveland.com/data....

Now, I will say wholesalers who have a license or those who buy in bulk do have a different strategy and may well be compliant, but not the ones and twos bunch acting like dealers. 

If you want a fixed 15-30yr low interest conventional loan most lenders will require a foundation and as @Jeffrey H.has stated it must not have been moved from its original situs unless it is coming directly from the factory or a dealers lot. 

Tax wise, we are "dealers" on our flips and I don't think this will be deductible for us.  

Very helpful, thanks @Matthew Irish-Jones

They might just be wealthy drug dealers :).
