I was out looking at a mobile home a few weeks back and I was trying to find the sticker with the VIN# to match/verify the title owner showed me. 

@Alex Hamilton - good point on the identification. 

I am thinking Smyrna, Sandy Springs, or Vinnings...somewhere like that.  

If you get a 70 or higher, you pass... provide your identification and get fingerprinted and you are ready to enter the market.If you plan on focusing on being just a Realtor, look at the big box brands and see how they will train you in the craft.If you are looking to also be an investor, then look for an investor friendly Brokerage to join.The investor side has a totally different focus and toolset than the traditional type entity.Good luck.

Prospective tenants will never think or have the courage to ask a person who they see as their future landlord for identification and thus the crimes go unsolved due to lack of an identifiable suspect.

@Bruce Runn, Understand the identification pressure.  

I would suggest you look up the IRS rules on 1031 and sale and " identification period " and rules .  

You should be fine, both the 2014 and 2016 ask for "Borrower/Payer Taxpayer Identification Number".

I honestly have not put much thought into the 45 day identification period...

 I would check with a tow company first as they probably know the laws better then you and may even be able to run the VIN number to see who it is owned by and what the requirements would be to have it legally towed.
