(I.e. it's located next to a popular landmark)For those located here in San Antonio, do you have any reputable contacting companies you work with?

Sterling Bank is a reputable bank.

Asking for a colleague...He has a 1981 manufactured home listed on owned land in Utah.

I need someone who is trusted, licensed, reputable and offers detailed scope of work description (versus bulk number).thanks in advance

Personally, I would figure out its true value which can be done through a reputable realtor, if I can sell it at about what I purchased pre-crash, I would dump it and reinvest the money in something that makes more sense.To your success! 

I will also caution that you don't want to get a reputation as the person who gets deals under contract then re-trades.

Please PM me if you've worked with anyone that is reputable in the city.

Even if you don't use that lender and use your personal relationships they have more liquidity and reputational capital so they can withstand any verification or scrutiny. 

Your reputation in this business makes all the difference.You would include the improvements in the equity raise.Offers always carry more weight than LOI on small deals like this.

But this is a family member who could live another 20-30 years for all you know and the equity in the home is all she's got.She ought to sell the home for full price, make $150k, then use that money to buy a condo or manufactured home on land for cash.
