But, while I was on the phone with him discussing options (shingle vs metal), he lowered his quote verbally by $500. 

I like putting them on metal poles in shopping centers.

I also want the inspector to tell me multiple things like "is the roof suitable for rain water collection for human or animal consumption or both" and needs to know to check for how the metal seams were done, any nails used, etc and I suspect only an ag type inspector would know these things… There is also some ag machinery that I may need to get appraisals on because I know nothing about pricing tractors or implements or such (my wife & I grew up farming but didn't ever buy anything because our parents did all that).Another example is that I can pursue the home loan through my banks but I will need to talk to the local farming property loan people and don't know much about that...

Light fixtures – solid, rust proof metals (especially for moist areas such as bathrooms) rather than coated or plated (or plastic) fixtures.

I have 4 large metal chimneys on my commercial building, they all have rain caps, but in super heavy rains the rain will get in anyway.

Actually, they're metal, I've disassembled one myself to reset it without a key.

Before the inspector came I had my contractor friend telling me I could just replace the screws in the leaking metal roof and that I could just pour some concrete in the sunken kitchen floor.

MattI am a licensed modular retailer and investor of wholesale RE.20 Years in the industry.Previous statements are incorrect.A mobile home or manufactured home is a "HUD Label "structure which is designed for affordable living and the financing is somewhat tuffer for the buyer depending on credit.They have a metal frame underneath that is built in the home for transporting it to the site.
