At that point I owned the lot but not the MH since the MH was considered personal property. 

We can't tell who the person is that's offering this to you.  

One tenant however, did refer to having their rent pro-rated by the number of days that the situation would last.There is a clause in both their leases that they are responsible to carry renters insurance to protect their personal belongings against fire, theft, flood, loss of use etc. 

I’m not familiar with “hard” money, do you offer standard foldable money?

I had personal ties to the area and saw the potential in this once blighted property.

I believe NYS law is 15 days to keep the things, but I have also read 30 days is standard. i want to get the property cleaned up and start working on it...

The last few properties we have put on the market went under contract in under a week with multiple offers but they were priced right, were inline with the area but were done with quality and were in desirable areas.Unless you are dealing in a low-end market, a home warranty should be a standard inclusion especially for first time home buyers. 

Do you want to go into the office and learn in-person? 

I personally don't believe there are investors with hundreds of thousands of dollars to spend that couldn't think of doing the same, going to MLS and finding a wholesale deal.

Most likely the state where the property is located is where lawsuits would be brought if they are something for personal injury like a trip and fall or something of that nature because the “cause of action” arose in that state.
