Are you looking for single family homes only, or are you open to other types of real estate, such as commercial, mobile homes/ home parks, etc?

I've been throwing around the idea of investing in a mobile home park for some time now, but wanted to wait on an opportunity that I thought was appropriate.

Most people do tend to stay away from mobile/manufactured but its something I'm looking to get into for many reasons.

Your buyers should feel good that they are getting an old 3-story charmer with modern conveniences and high-efficiency.

I'm also not as versed in checking through the property tax databases as I should be.I got the "Modern Real Estate Practice" book that was recommended from somewhere, and if I get nothing else from it, the terminology should become familiar.As far as getting my license, I am a big fan of controlling all the deals I haven't made yet but what do you guys think about the timing?

I have been able to purchase a mobile home and get some good tenants into it within the last few months.

The only way I was able to tap into this market was to buy a mobile home as a rental here and it is a cashflow beast.

Based on that I'd say either keep it original but clean it up for a more classic look, or would agree with your wife that a whitewash is always classy, especially if going for a slightly more modern rehab.

I am very much interested in single and multi-family cash flow properties, and also very intrigued by mobile homes.

has anyone from BP built a mobile home park recently?
