@Charlie Krzysiak Some of these places like Little Elm are a little far out, but may also give you the chance to do 100% financing with USDA loan when you are ready to buy.Do you know where you will work yet?

This helps you stand out from the typical lowball inquiries the agent may have received.After the walkthrough, if you’re ready to move forward, explain your reasoning.

I recently came across 1 acre asking for 314k in a very good residential and growing location, so the current owner has added 4 manufactured homes with 4 electrical meters, 4 septic tanks and only 1 water meter for all 4 homes, the homes are sitting on partial slab and partial pier & beam, he also added 2 storage sheds approx. 380sqft with the intention to make them ADUs they are still only the shell so I would have to get those ready to live in, so currently the 4 manufactured homes are being rented and bringing in 2800k a month, 3 of the homes are needing some TLC which could increment rents and possibly get me at 3600k a month, also being a 1ac lot this still leaves about 12,000sqft of raw land where you could build etc.So that is on the good side now the things I did not like so much, the lay out is poorly executed to where it makes it looked crammed up and not professional but it could be fixed.Another is that in reality there is only 4 livable units so that qualifies under a conventional loan but since they're are 6 units on the property the banks are wanting to take it as a commercial so we would have to move out the 2 storage sheds out in order to close as conventional.Another concern, technically you are only allowed to have one manufactured house or single wide in your property according to what I know but I know it could change according to zoning which I will investigate, so my question is has all this been accounted for and if so how can I verify it so it wont leave me in a bind further down the road, I currently asked my agent for the appraisal of the property to see if that might verify.Any recommendations?

One word of caution: the court orders typically allow repairs to make a home habitable, i.e. rent-ready, but not cosmetic or similar non-essential repairs, like upgrades or additions.

The one parcel that we will develop into buildable lots will probably be after we have built out/sold off the initial 30ish lots that are ready to go, which should produce capital and prove demand.

When ready, start with a small property, near home, with enough capital in reserve to handle adversity.

Once you have done it in your own backyard and know the demand of owning RE, you will be much more ready to buy out of state.
