Get about another 9 inches of space.1New- China makes these things so cheap and the trade is so lopsided, China to US and not back, that a lot of containers are sold as 1 trip to the US. 

Two things you guys did clarify are that I need to be thinking about an installed manufactured tiny home and not one in wheels.

SizeCracks wider than 5 millimeters (0.2 inches) are a cause for concern Cracks wider than 15 millimeters (0.6 inches) may indicate a serious problem Cracks wider than 25 millimeters (1 inch) could be a sign of structural damage Location Cracks above doors and windows, Cracks near the ends of walls, Cracks where walls and ceilings meet, and Cracks that allow daylight in.

Thats why we dont charge by hour for snow , its by the push , or by the inch . 

G'Day Alejandro,As a few have already mentioned, take a peak at Toledo also.In my opinion lower potential for long term appreciation but solid/"boring" cashflow.I prefer my portfolio to be "boring" but cashflowing lolLow entry points (Sub $100,000), high rents (Above the 1% rule).Blue collar working class decent folks that will stay and pay.Depending on the area but no derelict homes, yards well kept, cars with wheels and all tenants are employed.Plus, all are sophisticated enough to pay rent online so property management doesn't have to collect rents with bullet proof vests and shot guns lolI'm bias toward Toledo but it's worth considering.Wishing you much success

You do not need to reinvent the wheel.3.

Offering a maybe 10% discount will help grease the wheels and the cost is small.

There is a 1 inch gap between the baseboards and wall and the actual floor which presumably leads outside due to my having a room with 3 walls that lead directly outside. 

You can't do anything without their permission and should rebuild it a few inches towards your property so it is entirely on your property and you avoid this problem in the future.If it were me, I would talk with my neighbor, "Hey, what do you think of this fence?"

The squeaky wheel wins in development so I'd recommend you staying on all communication with the city so that you can see the communication and push as the owner.
