I'm looking to expand my network and meet people who are passionate about real estate investing.I currently work at Brookfield and specialize in Manufactured Housing.

There is increasing job growth in manufacturing, education, and medicine.

I replaced my single speed pool pump which used 1400 watts with an electronically controlled multi-speed pump that only uses 200 watts.

They have economic diversity with manufacturing (primarily pharmaceuticals, textiles, petrochemicals, and electronics), a strong service industry, finance, insurance, real estate and finally tourism (only 7% of GDP).

There are also electronic payment options.

If that's an option for you, I'd do that as well, but it may not matter much if you pay electronically. 

Are there any financing options to purchase manufactured homes under a business for the purpose of renting them?

Have you considered Manufactured homes on land?
