A second consideration is that condos locally have become more adverse to rentals. 

If you are in an LLC and looking for better rates and longer amortization terms, I recommend networking with local and community banks. 

If you're considering mobile homes, the first step is checking zoning laws and utility access since some areas have restrictions.For resources, Mobile Home University is a well-known starting point, and local mobile home dealers can offer insights on placement and financing.If mobile homes are allowed, you could either rent them yourself for higher returns but more management or rent out the lots for steady cash flow with less work.

@Tiana Lazard check with your local municipality, but unlikely you can claim homestead unless it is still your legal address - and you want tenants getting your mail.

I'm also hopeful to get some local cooperation now that he's claiming partnerships with local government. 

Since when should any local govt have the right to tell someone they can't rent or lease their property or other items. 

Hi Brett - local PM here - we have a few development projects, small multifamily and tonwhouses that we are gearing up for sale in the next 6 months.

The seller offered financing with 20% down, which I used to buy the place.After starting construction and realizing it was going to cost more than expected, I approached a small local bank that knew the property and would offer the rehab financing. 

Go to BUILD YOUR TEAM at the top of the screen and look for local investors or meetups in your area.

I'm a lender local here to Cleveland right downtown and know the market very well.
