That's why we have our LLCs and the set up we do-- complete separation.

Soft ground or wet weather can speed up the sinking.In most cases, this is not a deal-breaker when purchasing a used mobile home.

What are the special regulations that I need to know in order to flip houses?

In the next few months, I'm looking to get a standard CA NAA lease with RUBS included for billing the water and sewer, as well as requiring tenants to have their own renters insurance, as that is not something they are currently required. 

Your best investment is in yourself.Consider going to college or learning a trade.Use the funds to invest in something that does not require much time so you can focus on learning.If you do decide to get into real estate, you may want to consider doing a house-hack.It will give you a place to live(potentially saving you a few hundred dollars from paying rent and also giving you training wheels for being a landlord).

Meaning: Instead of the app being submitted in 2 days or so, it's taken weeks. :-(  We are only staying with the bank because the rate is so advantageous and the terms are as well.

Some of the rents were as low as $800 and we've successfully brought those up to market ($1,000+).

It's a risk you run on the anonymity side, however, if someone looks up the address now, do they not see your name?

This would include architectural fees, new equipment, cost of protecting or defending your title to the property, or building improvements.

Appreciate all the advice.
