I think you are right on track with some of the areas your mentioned, they all offer good things.  

When that first property is performing well, the next one will be easier to acquire because you have strong cash flow and a track record.So my suggestion, use financing to purchase the first one and keep as much of your money in your pocket as possible.

I agree that you should find a new agent since he obviously isn't keeping track of the properties he's shown you.  

This was true in 2007 and it's true now.Credibility is established by a track record and a personal relationship.

If you use a commercial broker, make sure they represent you alone in the transaction and not both parties (dual agency). 

In looking at the Oridna Municipal Code, I found two relavant sections:  Chapter 10.52 PARKING OF COMMERCIAL VEHICLES and Chapter 3.12 UNIFORM TRANSIENT OCCUPANCY TAX.It looks like the ordinance has defined a tiny house on a trailer as: "Oversize recreational vehicle" means vehicle, other than an automobile, which is self-propelled, motorized, and has self-contained living quarters, including a kitchen, bathroom and sleeping areas, and may be used for the transportation of people upon a street or highway, but not including any vehicle designed for travel on stationary rails or tracks.

I love the goals you've laid out and I think you're on the right track!

@Jon Klaus I have assessed all those things and I feel that the listing photos may not do my home justice.  

I get 100 "students" tell them they have the inside track to a fund manager (oh, I charge them big bucks for that too) then I get a sheet on loans available and pass that out to my brokers, we make a commitment to buy in 90 or 120 days.
