I'm wondering if it would make sense to source modular homes in China and have them shipped to and assembled in markets like Memphis, Atlanta, Birmingham, and other where you can buy vacant lots with utilities for as little as a few thousand dollars.

Usually, I buy with cash.

They’ve become harder to find lately so if I see them I buy them all.

If you want to just house-hack, i recommend buying a good property in a good area no matter the price. 

, then I contacted them and in order to join their program, you have to put down $15K and $200/month for their deal sourcing service, and they asked to sign a disclosure that basically states: "We not taking liability to what we advertised and we are not refund if you buy some property in 30 days".I felt like this is Scam already but I really want to know how to make money from doing Flipping, so I signed and tried the program.

You also will almost always run your property better than a PM company, especially early on in your career while you are focused so it is hard to describe how much better of a deal you need to have if you are buying small multi units or single family.

There's a very good chance the issue(s) you face have already been discussed and answered.Ask questions in the appropriate forum.

I personally invest in Sacramento, mostly equity plays on buy and hold rentals, but am starting to flip properties again.

@Joe Carpyou can buy rentals with a DSCR loan, and they will not require W2 income like a conventional bankhowever, down payments will be 15-30%, so will use up your cash fasthow to scale as we sink money into each property is definitely a major challengei have done a couple successful BRRRRs that helped preserve capitalhope this helps

Plus, they want someone to fix up the vacant eyesore next door as badly as you want to buy it!
