My parents are selling their double wide mobile home, and they have an outstanding mortgage balance on it.

@Paul Georgia You may want to check with your local mobile home supply store.

I want to know whether there are any members out there from the UK.I'm based in East London/Essex and have dedicated the lockdown time here to learning all about property investing, with an initial desire to flip small family houses.My background is in account management/project management within advertising and marketing, so I'm looking to bring that high level of organisation and team-building into the process (amongst other things).It would be great to connect with you guys!

I'm wanting to purchase a mobile home to start but my question is, should I try to purchase a unit that's already set up on a lot or purchase land and go from there?

@Ryan Kraemer Generally, outside of seller financing, the common types of debt available for MHPs are:Local & Regional Banks or Credit Unions - You can find out which banks have an appetite for mobile home parks by asking the MH/RV brokers in your area, networking through your state's manufactured housing association or other parks owners in your area like @Rachel H.noted above, or simply obtain list of the smaller banks in your area/region and call them to see if they have lent on parks in the past.

Yeah @Brodie Priestley, I wouldn't touch a mobile home park at an 8 Cap. 

There are two mobile homes on the property.

I am quite dedicated and have reading books, listening to podcasts, and networking for the last 3 years, and feel I am confident enough now to really get started.

It does look like i will have to dedicate a lot more time on BP as it is a central network of information. 

For more than 20 years I specialized in flipping mobile homes in parks.
