I have not seen a good answer yet because appraisers have not really adjusted to this new real estate model so there is no standard way to evaluate and not enough comps in the marketplace yet.Anyway, let me know if you find more info on the topic because I am very interested.

The newer models are fine, they eventually required manufacturors to build them according to house codes, so enter drywall, roofs that are not rolled metal, better wiring, escape windows, exterior doors that were not tin covered paneling.I have been in several mobile homes that were burning. 

Business has become simpler and easier in this new virtual business model than it was before with an office filled with employees, clients, tenants, and vendors. 

My personal preference is a gut rehab, but that really doesn't work as well with the house hacking model. 

I’m looking to reverse engineer my operation as I believe is the smartest way to building a successful business model in this realm.

I have a model built around this but with the new HEC special category on facebook, the ability get in front of the proper segments seems to have dropped off a cliff. 

It's part of some realtors' business model (mine for instance but also Redfin's).

Assuming rents rise over the years and I make continual improvements to the place, I would be set up to transition into the traditional hacking model of renting one unit in whole and occupying the other side myself. 

Loaning a flipper 100% money or gap financing can be treacherous, but show me someone who lives around and owns 10 SFR rentals in a small town and suddenly I'm piqued by their business model.

It is rare but sometimes with national tenants it can happen or an A location even with mom and pop tenants if rents per foot before cam are lower and do not tax tenants businesses models as much to stay profitable.
