We have tenants looking to buy a house, and we were considering selling them our rental with a lower interest rate than current market rates.Does anyone have experience doing this? 

Your commission split will be higher in favor of the broker, BUT it's a good place to experiment and have your training wheels before branching off onto other brokerages that give you a better split. 

Or will I go through with it and get some money and some experience which I can use later on in another deal?

Just wondering if anyone who have dealt the similar situation and have any recommendations on local engineer firms and contractors who have experience in this kinda project.Thanks ahead!!!

If you haven't put the best possible,  experienced people around you, I might suggest getting involved with your local real estate investment groups...many of these people will have experience and contacts that could help walk you through the steps required to make this project safe and profitable or to show you why it might be something to walk away from. 

That said, no direct experience with mobile homes.

Its going to be managed by a property manager and thus a passive investment which is allowed per h1b rules.However, I am being needed to procure state and county hotel tax certificates which almost seems like I am launching a hotel business in the records of state.I am starting to wonder if this can cause issues down the lane when renewing my visa or applying for green card.If anyone else has a similar experience or own STRs on h1b, urgently want to discuss this with you.
