The property was purchased with a manufactured home on it.

He often sold them on contracts to juice the profits even more.Personally I have done several projects where I purchase a crappy mobile on owned land in a manufactured home community.

The reputable firms wont do that, they get a lot of referral business from agents and investors, because they don't oversell.

If, as a property manager, I wanted to damage my reputation with as many tenants as possible by providing the lousiest repair service possible, I can't think of a better way to accomplish that than by using a warranty company on all service calls.

If something goes wrong in the transaction you are relying on the track record and reputation of the seller, and you will have limited recourse to recover your funds.Many attorneys will be able to serve in the capacity of a closing agent on your behalf.

@Jason LamIf you are concerned primarily with the quality of the home, then first thing you should do is make sure you are working with a reputable turnkey company. 

The federal government was the one that forced blind manufacturers to "voluntarily" stop making corded blinds. 

On the other hand if they’re truly good and honest then business will be there and reputation will carry them to unprecedented levels of success. 

For many years we have been stuck in our old ways of manufacturing and a slowly declining economy.

Something like this can ruin your businesses reputation, but also his personal reputation and life.
