I could see this being widely abused if not.

I'm looking at buying a property that has a house on a foundation and a double wide that is not on a foundation.

Not usually because they have wide market exposure if it was a good deal someone would have already bought it

@Matthew J.Probably because the sites you are looking are nation wide and they require a selection as a category.I would however like to know how local builders perform this due-diligence process - I have to believe they are checking something somewhere before buying a lot.

@Nick Monge - your description could put you in a wide range of neighborhoods. 

The driveway is wide and long enough for several cars.

There are two ways to go about marketing/advertising your business...You can go a mile wide and an inch deep, which would be marketing large scale such as blanketing an entire neighborhood with direct mail, door hangers, etc.

But after opening my eyes to the wide world of REI, I'm convinced college would be a waste of my time, since I'm planning to go into real estate full time anyways.My preparation this year for the great journey ahead has consisted of binging real estate books and podcasts, keeping an eye on the forums, and saving as much capital as I can.

Not sure why state wide rent control scares you.

But, I also would prefer not to deal with the long contracts and other cons to having the license...especially for just a handful of deals.I know this topic of wholesaling without a license is widely debated, but what to you believe would be the best route under the circumstances I mentioned?
