Hey Makani, you should check out DSCR loans, which are primarily for investment properties and focus on the property’s income potential rather than your personal income.

You picked a great community to join.. have you checked out local comps to gauge the market vibe yet?

Its no surprise that also took them a week to go and turn it off.I had 2 perspective tenants waiting for over a month with their national background check only to find out there were alternatives we could use to get a report in minutes but they refused to not use that company.Finally I get a tenant after 3 months on the market who is someone who was fully approved by the rent amount was 200 dollars less than market value a month so I agreed because it was just before winter when its harder to get someone in.

Quote from @Sherry McQuage: Make sure to check the zoning to make sure mobile homes are permitted there; check for any hazardous waste designation for the area; will you need to have the parcels surveyed out in order to sell the size you intend? 

I checked out Parkvilled the other day.

Definitely checking out all my options. 

Just checked on Vestin Mortgage.

Also, be sure to check with the section 8 agency managing the tenants - sometimes if you pass on an additional cost like that they will no longer be eligible to live there if the rent and utilities exceed what they were approved for.
