If your goal/strategy is to build a nice nest egg for retirement and not replace your current income (not knowing where you are in life), then netting 5% while padding your future isn't that bad of a deal, especially since there are ways you might be able to increase that 5% through property and operational improvements.

Kitchen Cabinets with fist sized holes, an overflowing AC drain that went unreported for lord knows how long, causing standing water & mold growth along the entire back half of the house (hence the water issue), and we found a nice pit bull puppy (no pet policy) that conveniently ate carpet + pad, chewed window casings and doors in EVERY room.

For 1850 rental in Northern Virginia do I purchase the cheapest pad and carpet because it's a rental?

Higher than ~6% mortgage rate, 7-10% unemployment companies will step on the brake to stop burning money. 

Locks together, no pad underneath needed and no glue or mess.

Currently looking at small 14 pad mobile home park for sale.

I always run my own comps, crunch numbers and then ask them for the real numbers and am frequently disappointed to hear the truth lol BUT I'm very grateful that they don't pad numbers or try to get my to buy something that doesn't pencil out well just to make a commission. 

At this very moment I have 2 2 build lots for sale if you are looking for development pads...one in the nations and one in East Nashville.

If you are showing homes to clients, suggest having an I-Pad with the ability to access the MLS on the road.  

Just be careful and run your numbers with an extra padding if you invest in IL.
