Planning to start my RE journey on the Northshore and expand to other areas after I've built some rapport, as the market is nuts here. 

I live and sell in the same town as my flip property so I know the market very well.

My aunts new husband has 5 single family homes that he had built.

I have not considered it as I currently own a town house.

Those who are self-employed (wholesaling generally qualifies) can get the additional benefits of the Solo 401k including: Compared to an IRA, Solo 401k contributions limits are roughly ten times higher.There is no custodial requirement for the 401k.You don't need the additional expense and administration of an LLC to have checkbook control.There is a built in-Roth component whereas IRAs are either traditional or Roth, not both.A spouse can also participate in the same Solo 401k plan.The Solo 401k has additional tax benefits over an IRA when investing into real estate using leverage.The penalties for prohibited transactions are less severe, though it's best not to utilize this benefit :)

(I.e. 2 x 200k rentals will bring in more rent with less risk than 1 x $400k property. )If you have time I’d be glad to talk real estate while you’re in town.

@Isaac Rayne,You should start by reading this: https://www.mobilehomeuniversity.com/articles/why-...If you still want to go forward: contact city/county zoning to make sure a mobile home park can be built on the land you're considering.

I can’t afford anything in the NY Metro Area at the moment, so I’m exploring areas in:my home state of Vermont (Southern VT mainly)Keene, NYPittsburgh, PA where my brother livesKingston, NY (Upstate NY area/Catskills)North Adams, MA (college town)I’m trying to stick to areas I have some ties to since it will most likely be an out-of-state situation with a property manager.My goal is to buy a 2-4 unit property that is in decent shape, rent the units, and have one unit for myself to come to when I want to get away from NYC.I’ve been running numbers on both the rental property calculator and the BRRRR calculator with varying results.

The town will not allow the owner to subdivide it due to road frontage requirements.  

There was no sign, and the bushes were so overgrown the house was almost unnoticeable...and it sits on the main road through our small town, just 2 blocks from my commercial building.
