A house 7 doors down, in same quality/age/shape but only 1600 sqft sold less than 90 days ago for 133,500.

We have maintenance install the washer and dryers so they are hooked up correctly.We use teflon tape,the steel braided hoses wit the high quality washers on the inside.Where the discharge hose goes into the drain we install a strap to the wall so the discharge hose won't fall out when draining and leak.Even given all that if they have an old washer it can give out and water can be released.The simple fix is a drain pan under the washer with a pipe that ties into the discharge pipe in the wall.All of this will cost about 40 bucks or so not including labor.Well worth it than cleaning up a huge leak causing massive damage.We also check the hot and cold water valves the supply lines hook into from the washer.The valves might be gone and partially leaking.Also if the tenant installs the washer and dryer they might over tighten fittings causing bent pipes and damage or under tighten having leaks.Been my experience with over 20 units on a 30 year old building.

I believe the quality of mobile home HVAC are not the same as SFR so thats why it is cheaper.

Your challenges will be to get them to work together to clean up the neighborhood.

I am currently charging a fixed monthly fee based on the size and # of units which covers all your routine repairs, plus cleaning.

He lives out of state, has owned the property for about 20 yrs and doesnt want to deal with it anymore, so there is plenty of motivation...The father who showed me the property did some cleaning and some painting because the previous tenant left the place a mess but there is still work that needs to be done.

What about things like mowing the grass, keeping the common areas cleaned, utilities to common areas, water/sewer/garbage for the building, snow removal (ND after all)?

I have used a lot of carpet cleaning companies in the past.

I'll stick to my nice C class areas with quality blue collar tenants.

Aside from income metrics, banks are also pretty obsessed with collateral quality these days, so it will be a good idea to only show them C+ or better, as far as location, and property condition/age.The typical local bank will offer both conventional (the 30-year fixed you're looking for) as well as in-house (portfolio) loans.
