The one my buddy had, they brought in a piñata with glitter.  

@Marcus BrownIn my earlier reply, I failed to consider the point that you brought up: does a mobile home qualify for the purposes of the capital gain exclusion under Section 121 of the Internal Revenue Code?  

Thank you Ronnie, I haven't contacted my mortgage people yet but I will..my wife brought up the idea of using the equity we have in it to help but I will talk with them. thank you again for your response 

I am in the middle of refinancing one of them, and when I stopped by with the appraiser this week I brought donuts for the two units.

Realtor brought off-market deal How did you finance this deal?

I've been involved with this specific interpretation of business purpose vs consumer purpose loans since the distinction was brought forward at the outset of Dodd/Frank more than 10 years ago.Stephanie 

I invest a lot in PERE, and if someone brought me a deal and asked me to be an equity partner, but then changed their mind in order to make more money after I had already spent time on due diligence for that particular deal, I'm not sure how receptive I'd be if they then came back to me for the next one.I guess it all depends how much you've involved this potential partner in the deal to date, and therefore whether they feel like you reneged on a commitment to work together.There's the adage that half of a deal is better than no deal.

If what you're realtor brought up was close to 70k they might have cast a VERY wide net.

I really appreciate it.So I contacted the city and they said it will have to be brought up to code so looks like it will have to be the floor/roof assembly.One Last question if you don't mind.

He found these issues and brought them to our attention.
