The point is, there are AMAZING deals in the rust belt, but no matter where you are, you have to know who is the captain of your ship .....or you may hit an iceberg, LOL!"

Plus houses are not rocket ships. 

This means that after I refinance INTO a 203k loan, I will get renovations done, and then jump ship and refinance OUT of the FHA 203k loan, to avoid paying PMI.

Hello I am hoping to gain some knowledge and or insight in using shipping containers for mini storage.

Shipping time was about a week.

I contend that they recoup those discounts in other ways, e.g. shipping fees, etc. 

Self Storage with shipping containers or other prefab units like Janus MASS .

I get with an attorney who says we can get some proof of heir ship documents from the sellers siblings, but we're still having problems closing. 

What if you had modular tiny shipping container homes where the main plumbing, electric, venting, etc. resided in standardized locations or were flexible enough to adapt to the plot they were on.
