Has anyone done it before?
I know Lonnie Scruggs wrote a book about it, but I haven't read it yet.
I'm 23 and would like to get started investing in real estate. I've never owned property before and I thought starting with something small like mobile homes would limit my risk and perhaps lead to bigger things.
Based on the articles I have read about it so far, it seems that the easiest way to make money is to offer owner financing. Most of the people who live in the lower priced mobile homes ($5k-$15k) couldn't finance a bag of Cheeto's. They're typically more worried about a low monthly payment rather than the overall price.
I live in Las Vegas, so I don't have to worry about tornadoes/hurricanes/floods. However, I am having trouble finding them for sale at a decent price. I've seen a couple in the $3-5k price range, but that's about it.
Any ideas?
