My tenants or anyone else for that matter, have no idea my LLC actually "owns the property".

Then you should have a pretty clear cut idea of what the 1031 will save you.

If you want to maximize your max rents then if might be a good idea to condomise it so that you can get rents as two separate units.

Are there communities like these in California, Colorado, or UtahHere is Suncadia and Seabrookhttps://www.destinationhotels.com/suncadia-resorthttps://www.travelandleisure.com/trip-ideas/seabrook-town-washington-coast

@Michael R. they only offer it because they collect more in fees than they pay out, most all protection/warranty/insurance is a slow bleed, just save an extra $5000 for your reserves and don't pay it to Zillow. 

But, sadly, I think that if you posted this for sale out in the real estate investing world, saying you are open to seller finance at 0% interest, you might have an incredible amount of interest, and be able to take advantage of many newbies who have no idea what they are doing. 

i think there is a misconception that a syndication is like a savings account... although this OP seems to have a strong understanding.if you have 25K to your name... or even 100K... you're not ready. 

One possible idea I had was working a new deal with seller for 50% less than the original deal on the recorded paper and separately give seller cash once I build and sell new home. 

It may be a good idea to drive the areas you're interested in buying to see if you can locate any parcels of land around areas with mobile homes already on them. 

To me sounds like something an amateur would do who is trying to save a few dollars hiring the cheapest vendor option out there.
