@Adam Reyher640 is really kind of low, but doable with a reduced LTV.  

Standardizing finishes/fixtures within this class absolutely reduces the cost of inevitable damage.

In an effort to save $ (time for my contractor not setting up & moving scaffolding), he popped some siding off on 1st floor, drilled holes, blew in insulation & for 2nd story, since we were going to paint anyways, drilled holes inside & blew insulation all for $5000.  

In my opinion, if the program was truly about reducing blight and/or code violations, then there wouldn't be a way for property owners to just pay the fee and "self-certify" that the property is in compliance (an option that many of these programs have).   

It's  immediate penalty and may reduce the tenant call you with similar issues in the future.

To reduce the ownership down to the filing tax payer is exactly what you want to do.  

As property owners, some folks trade their time for reduced expenses in property management, for example, or property maintenance.

I was first focused on reducing my debt from college, law school and getting settled.  

If you are paying more than that it's  likely easily fixed by replacing the toilets with the high efficiency version (this has consistently been the case and has helped reduce the cost of sewer and water by 40-50% on properties that had old toilets).

.- If you cannot walk to the beach, must have much much lower rates to compete with others / renter pool reduced considerably- High Vacation Season is now only about 6 weeks, where you can get top dollar rent / then another 7 weeks for shoulder season rent / and the rest of the year is lucky to get enough to break even - or get a long term renter for the off-season, where now you become a landlord vs. a vacation rental owner at a low rate, where hard to find a good renter that won't trash the place - & then landlord/tenant laws apply - may not be able to evict if needed in time for high-season guests (now what)- More upkeep and maintenance needed on a mobile home - they are not built as well/sturdy etc. as a stick built home on a foundation- There is a stigma attached to "mobile homes"- The numbers just do not make it as good an investment, when you add devaluation into the calculations- Resale is like a car, devalues over timeHOWEVER- If you find a community that will allow short term vacation renters, and you have all cash, you can probably find a good deal on an older used home where they numbers make more sense.
