I'm hoping to buy, renovate, and sell quickly to get started but eventually I'll need a more permanent living arrangement for myself.

Streets must either be devoted to public use and maintenance, or private streets protected by permanent recorded Easements.The remaining economic life, as determined by the appraisal, must be greater than or equal to the term of the proposed mortgage.

Why should you have to spend time doing a temporary repair to hold them until you do a permanent repair with your own time for their negligence?

Hi Mark,You can lock permanent long term financing ahead of time from the construction loan.

I roll Cash and Lines of Credit, then permanent financing.

I don't know if you plan on making this as your permanent residence or simply use it as a rental.

I am taking a look at a market in NC and I am noticing quite a bit of permanent mobile home "plans".  

I hadn't really considered the longer term, though still not permanent, rental option.  

Property Details: (Per County Public Records):1.8 acres - $17,8001978 Manufactured Home (Doublewide on permanent foundation w/basement) - $38,770Total Property Value - $56,570Home Sq Ft - 1300 SFBasement Sq Ft (unfinished) - 1300 SFDetached Garage - 1200 SFMy parents and I went to look at the property and to our surprise the place was in shambles.

Last thing you want is to be 2-3yrs into this property and you cant get permanent financing.
