Hey there BP community, I am looking for more insight on flipping a manufactured homes.

You're not going to find anyone to lend you money to fix up your home directly.

I am under contract on the sale of my first home, I have owned the house for 10 years in Oakland County, MI. 

Address: 313 Waterway Dr, Sunset Beach, NC 28468Looking at possibly seller financing this home in sunset beach nc.

Personally I look for an agent that understands the different requirements of investing as opposed to home purchasing. 

I've been looking at and making offers on duplexes and some single-family homes for about 6 months now.

When buying your 1st home/real estate investment is a real estate agent needed on your side?

Make sure whatever you buy, you go and personally view the homes. 

Access to the MLS and access to homes that are vacant to see.

You can do cost segregation on your properties and generate a lot of deductions – but if you can get advantage of those deductions and move them from the passive side to the active side (via REPS) it’s another question (and unlikely if you have a W2 job, maybe a stay at home significant other?).
