I've seen some nice looking deals there, but I've sworn off self managing and have promised myself I won't buy anywhere that there isn't a manager that I feel pretty great about, and then another one that's almost as good to take over when the best one implodes on me, like I had happen in Pfieldmass! 

I have been listening to all of the podcasts I can and reading more books (I promise I'm not in education paralysis) and think we came up with a couple of good options for our situation.At first, my thought was, "how do I start when we have no money, two car payments and student debt?

If the broker doesn't have a deep level of experience placing debt on mobile home parks, you could be in for a lot of brain damage and promises that are not met.

Asking price: $80k (my realtor said it was priced fairly for area)Property is turnkey, doesn’t need anything but some paint and some fresh gravel for the driveway.Rent is listed as $850 in my attached report but think I can go a bit higher - posted a fake ad before offering at $850 without pictures and had 7 people reach out in 3 days.https://www.biggerpockets.com/analysis/rentals/e92aca0e-38c0-49fa-8c6c-05e65cb123af.pdf

I promise that just about every person that has a pet will pick the pet over a property.

Second, I think your risk of eviction issues is actually less with Section 8 tenants since some portion of the rent, maybe all, is coming from the governmentI only take Section 8 tenants and have great tenants - I'm not owed a dime of rent from any of my Section 8 tenants and they take good care of my properties, so good S8 tenants are out there, I promise.  

Good luck with it though, it seems like a promising area!

Use plain language asking them what they pay for rent, for CAM fees, what utilities are included, what deposit the owner is holding, what appliances or fixtures the tenants own and plan to take with them, what services they expect to be included, and any agreements they've made with the seller (such as seller promises to fix things, etc). 

They had planned to move out and had never given me even a weeks notice, when there new place place fell through I still let them stay for the remaining 2 months I had initially promised. 

Airbnb deposits are fake so it really doesn't matter with them.
