Hi Brett - local PM here - we have a few development projects, small multifamily and tonwhouses that we are gearing up for sale in the next 6 months.

The seller offered financing with 20% down, which I used to buy the place.After starting construction and realizing it was going to cost more than expected, I approached a small local bank that knew the property and would offer the rehab financing. 

You can contact some local property managers and get a better idea of the rental market.

If you're considering mobile homes, the first step is checking zoning laws and utility access since some areas have restrictions.For resources, Mobile Home University is a well-known starting point, and local mobile home dealers can offer insights on placement and financing.If mobile homes are allowed, you could either rent them yourself for higher returns but more management or rent out the lots for steady cash flow with less work.

I detailed LOCAL government will be on point.

When it comes to AirBnB I have found its location, number of beds then amenities like kitchens and outdoor spaces that attract quality guests and demand higher prices. 

More than 5 days late (or whatever your local laws consider late), give them notice. 

Hey Jon would recommend checking out FB groups if you aren't local (looks like you're based in the Bay).

You can purchase them through a local dealer that has a good track record in the community.At this time our cleaners take care of the hot tub, but I will say if you have a certified hot tub company that can come weekly, I would definitely go that route!

Granted there is a cost in hiring an agent, Having someone analyze each deal with localized knowledge is worth its weight in gold.
