As a brand new investor, you want to minimize your risk as much as possible on your first buy and what you are looking at depends on your strategy.

The mobile home was assembled in 1974 and is a 2 bed 1 bath.My question is, would this just be a waste of time and money?

Im starting out and would like to keep my costs to a minimal so I can save $ for the actual investments.

Only one unit will be rented, house hacked, and the water cost for a HE washer is minimal.

I wouldn't even bother doing anything else or wasting any other time without actually talking to the lender.

That’d be a waste of money!

We are willing to put the work into the research and learning but hate to waste our money on classes that are inefficient.

It’s honestly a waste of my time and resources if I’m bringing along market experts such as contractors, agents and photographers and getting detailed information for the buyer, if they’re just going to walk it themselves out of fear.That’s the reason I quoted the book, that paragraph resonated with me and THOSE are the type of buyers that I need to work with; they know exactly what they want, they’re serious and let numbers and “proof” guide their judgement, not emotion.

If you’re looking at newer homes, maintenance and capex should hopefully be pretty minimal.

I need help tax planning, knowing the right moves to make and where I can minimize my realized income.
