He has a few potential buyers going out to see it soon so I'm hoping someone he can find a buyer for it. 

You will need to go after a strategy that has potential to work or do a house hack. 

There are so many potential problems.

I could potentially make 20K flipping a new mobile home install.3. 

Here are some trends that could play out, or further develop in 2025.Leasing & Tenant Experience AI-Powered Leasing: Chatbots and AI tools will streamline leasing processes, from answering tenant inquiries to scheduling tours.Virtual Tours & Digital Leasing: These will become even more standard, making it easier for tenants to rent remotely.TechnologySmart Property Management: IoT devices (smart locks, thermostats, etc.) will become more common, improving efficiency and tenant satisfaction.Property Management Software: Platforms will integrate more AI for predictive maintenance, rent collection, and financial reporting.SustainabilityGreen building practices and energy-efficient upgrades will be a major focus, driven by tenant demand and potential incentives.AI & AutomationAI will play a bigger role in tenant screening, rent pricing optimization, and even predicting market trends.Automation will handle repetitive tasks like maintenance requests and lease renewals, freeing up PMs for higher-level activities.I'm sure there are plenty more shifting trends that I haven't mentioned and that are sure to evolve over the next year. 

Digging down is a project I am just finishing up.... it is exhausting but potentially worth it.

@Kevin Bartel If you're starting in real estate investing with a high-paying W2 job and a demanding schedule, your best approach depends on balancing risk, involvement level, and income potential.

Covering the mortgage isn’t an issue, but I’m considering factors like: Multi-Family: House hacking would help offset costs right away, but I’d likely need to put money into renovations upfront.Single-Family: Easier move-in with no immediate renovations needed, plus potentially lower tenant turnover once I rent it out For those who have been in a similar situation, what did you choose and why?

I would also check median home prices vs. rent potential, landlord-friendly laws, and supply vs. demand trends.

Who will show it to potential renters?
