I'm a licensed Real estate agent and investor in the state of Texas, focusing on buying homes AS-IS, as well as helping clients list and sell properties.

Upon inspection the appraiser will see the crawl space and see it was a mobile home plus a HUD tag and public record.One of the requirements in mobile home financing is the property "Must" be on a concrete permanent foundation(in order to be real property) on top of that it requires concrete pillars, skirting and the "Well and Septic" dug and placed within legal distance from subject property.

The hard money will probably be 10-15% plus 3-5 points for a deal like this.

It is aweome living in Idaho, and sounds like you have had a lot of great memories and experiences here.

can check out local apps like eventbrite or meetups

In my experience, most mom-and-pop investors lose a lot of money due to poor management of tenants, as well as poor/deferred maintenance.

Glad you like.

So if you can handle the financing for all this until the builder starts buying lots and building , You should do well 

This concerns me when you state it is cash neutral because if your underwriting is like most newer RE investors it would mean you are cash negative.
