It has drop ceilings which I'm not crazy about, but it's also a 3 bed 2 bath sitting on 4,042 sq feet of what I would think would be choice land. 

There  is a MHP Park university that you can search on line.

I'm going to have the outside vinyl sided which will be the only cash I have left in the deal.Actual Monthly Expenses:Mortgage Principal & Interest: $380Monthly Taxes: $68.92Monthly Insurance: $63.75Cap-Ex: $95Vacancy/Credit Loss: $47.50Property Management: $50Total Expense including estimate for vacancy and cap-ex: $715.17Rented @ $950 per monthExpected Cash Flow: $234.83Living Room:Master Bed/Bath:Under the cardboard box in the pictures were about a hundred cigarette burns in the carpet...Between the 5 people and 3 dogs living here when I bought it there wasn't a blade of grass in the back yard:Still haven't done the vinyl but it sod does wonders and it only took 1 pallet.
