I feel the prices she is giving us to definitely be on the low end of the market though after scouring this area to find this deal for 2 years and seeing what properties sold for that will be similar to what our finished product is.

Kinda kicking myself now, but it allowed us to afford the home we're in now.I live in Trillium closer to Brooksville.Insurance isn't too high here.

Also, it is more likely to see apartment tenants moving to a mobile home park to reduce their cost of living, than the other way around, so mobile home parks tend to have higher demand when everyone is seeking more affordable living. 

As long as I am not paying 3-4K in mortgage because that is just ridiculous and I won’t be able to afford it.

Maybe you DO actually like all that stuff, but just wish you'd bought in when you could have afforded it...

I’m also relatively new and this is really a foolproof affordable means to try first (cost of paper and stamps).

So, depending on your household income, price of the properties, and the terms you negotiate, you can determine how much you can afford to pay for both homes.  

I can afford living there as my primary residence but I would like not to have to and just flip it.

If you can't afford the required down payment and closing costs how are you going to afford any sort of repair, maintenance, vacancy or other unanticipated financial shortfall? 

I'm considering exiting our MF project and putting that into our own OZ fund because (a) I believe in the product focus and (b) I think there will be better buying opportunities in the next 8-12 months and OZ gives me the flexibility to look for those deals (180 days to allocate, 30 months to complete).
