@Sean McGrattan I’ve read my fair share of books on the subject.

As @Bill F. mentioned, the best place to find the expert MH attorney who would be able to guide you on that would be at the Manufactured Housing Association in the subject state.  

I love the theory behind a subject to deal, however i'm curious how some of you guys handle the potential drawbacks of the deal.I'm not very worried about the due on sale clause, it seems that this happens so rarely that statistically it can almost be ignored. 

Imagine how much more entertaining and accessible learning about dull topics note investing, raising money, or personal finance would be if BP simply had the subject matter experts write the books and sent the manuscripts over to the 'burg to get a dose of extra literary flair.

Yes, what you are describing is called purchasing a property subject to the existing mortgage, or Subject-to for short.

Furthermore, if the LLC is generating active income, more of the income would be subject to SE tax.

You can convince someone to sign their property over under a "Subject To" deal.

Or am I just better off buying property as a trust with a subject to and seller carryback?

Sellers were highly motivated and had frequent and long time delays in providing documents. 

And the way the report looks it can seem overwhelming with all the details broken up by subject/location then summaries... but when you start condensing it and putting value to it many times it is nowhere as bad as it seems.
