commercial as in retail?

I am a real estate investor that buys distressed property, NOT houses on the MLS retail.

@Joe Mills original question was about exploring a retail value of a mobile home that was to be removed from his property. 

Ever since the quick rebound, institutions are adding stabilized properties to their assets that have tenants that have weathered previous economic turmoil.One way the big boy institutions are trying to mitigate risk is by buying properties that performed historically well during challenging economic times.Because *some* DSTs align with that strategy, it gives you an opportunity to shift some of your investment equity into institutional asset classes that would be out of reach for the retail investor with a modest amount of equity to invest.

. $1800 retail.

While I agree to a point with Daves thought process and it can work in more of a retail setting .

Since you are new at this , just to let you know , the subs are going to charge you retail , just like any other customer , you are not an established contractor , they will see right thru you if you try to pretend . 

There is a major difference between contractor that work on retail homes vs contractors that work on investment properties.

A LOT of distrress is leading to mergers and firings, in just the last few weeks, this happened: (Big credit to @NewsLambert)Lower to acquire Universal Lending retail and wholesale operations (11/1/23)Trustar Mortgage acquired by Archer Mortgage, LLC (11/1/23)People’s Bank of Commerce to exit residential mortgage lending (10/27/23)BMO Bank cutting 228 jobs in Northern California (10/25/23)Homestar Financial to wind down operations (10/25/23)City National Bank layoffs in Los Angeles total 71 (10/23/23)Hometown Lenders layoffs (10/12/23)First Savings Bank to lay off 135 mortgage workers (10/4/23)Wesley Mortgage absorbs competitor Colten Mortgage (10/4/23)Cenlar to lay off 85 in Ewing, NJ (10/2/23)Rithm Capital to acquire Computershare Mortgage Services Inc.

I concentrate mostly on site selection and data analytics for retail medicine.
