The key issue seems to be that I not have an ownership interest when I am renting the property.

This included modernizing the interiors, enhancing the landscaping, and addressing any structural issues.

any issues with decks you fix right away. as far as fair pricing goes.. my rule of thumb is unless i know the work being done and have something to reference, always get 3 estimates, no matter what agreed on the flashing. i’d personally say do it. my first rental had a basement flood the first month, so i’m hypersensitive to water and any path it may enter a gmhkmk

Again, if we’re taking about a non condo multifamily purchase, I have no issues.

You never know a person's situation.A couple other reasons why a person would seller fi:1) they have had other offers "fall out" due to any number of issues with financing2)  they have a "unique" property, which may be difficult to sell using institutional financing.

Added flooring in many rooms and just fixed a lot of small issues with an 80 year old home.

Following this post as I have the same issue and would like some suggestions.

One of the biggest issues (apart from the price being higher than it should be) is the mortgage; I've listened to lots of BP videos and I've rarely hear anyone say they financed a property with a mortgage.

I am debating on creating a sub-group for mobile home park owners so I can mass market to them but still be specific to owners of parks.

@Andrew Erickson If this thing scales, you could talk with lenders that specialize in the mobile home space.
