Within Seattle city limits, I think the cheapest I've seen was a 1BR/1BA condo advertised at $100K with HOA dues around $400/month.Regardless however, I wish you luck on your search, you should definitely stay active on BP if you move the area and jump into the REI market to connect with other investors.

Now we want to sell the doublewide off our original land but retain the land (we have a micro-ranch raising a few head of a cattle) but we are hearing that no one will finance a used mobile home so we aren't sure what the best options are for advertising the house to sell. 

You probably have 2 choices, if you don't want to involve your parents. 1)  sit tight for a bit and double your savings. 2)  invest the money in advertising for great deals, and use wholesaling to fund your first purchase. 

LOLIf your rents were a bit lower and somewhat comparable, seems the advertising efforts of the large project would drive plenty of people past your for rent sign.

They never advertise and it's known through word of mouth/local grapevine. 

You can advertise it as "coming soon". 

It seems to me that the trend is towards smaller and smaller fixtures, just more of them.    

@Corey Dutton  I also like the ones that advertise they will do loans from 50k to 50 million...

You can always get with a lawyer and do a quiet title action, they usually take a few months, but at least you can get insurance and advertise the property with a warranty deed and list it for its market value.

Had a potential 4 night renter tell me I must accept his wife's dog because it was a service dog, even though we advertise as an allergen free, no pet household?
