Most of your questions can also be answered by researching in some of the Forums, Posts, and other links available. It would also be to your advantage to complete your profile to it's fullest.

Also, Mobiles are relatively decent especially, to start off with. Make sure you do not exceed budget and to consider what remodeling costs would be.

Hi Richard

I live in California as well and have been looking at both small properties and Mobile Homes.
Basically, your question "is California a good place to make deals or other States better?"
The answer depends on what type of property you are looking for and how much money you have to invest.
CA is probably one of the most expensive places besides NYC to make deals.
Even when you are looking at Mobile homes the cost is outragous.
I have concluded that to deal in RE here in CA you need money or really good credit and both would be better.
I chose to move to Oklahoma City and purchsed a 2bd 2bth 2car garage Townhome like new for $83,000.
The same home in a comparable neighborhood here would be around $175,000 or more.
Personally, I feel Mobile Homes are not a good investment.
You may be able to pick one up for cheap and fix it up to flip but finding a buyer is more difficult than a home. So you can expect to sit on the Mobile home investment much longer, thus costing money.
I suggest you keep researching this web site and others.
It takes time for most people to even get a foot in. Once you have made that first deal you better make sure it pays a profit.
Do your due diligence.

Richard,
It is always my pleasure to meet another member of the family here. I joined last summer.
I'm very late to reply to your investing questions; but I would like to say, "Change your strategy to fit your area."
If homes are expensive 'in your backyard' think of how you can make money. For example, find vacant homes. You could locate the owner(s), then set up a deal for lease purchase, or some other deal. Example 2, create a "Marketing Consultant" contract (see a real estate attorney). Have vacant property owner(s) or Owners that are advertising "FSBO" sign marketing contract with you and witness, then notarized document. Afterwards, use your marketing skills to market property in free ad websites to sell for a profit. Be creative while consulting your professional investing team members. To Your Success.
Cheers,

I am looking at a Turnkey rental, for $71,000, cash flow is $250.00 a month and COCR is 16.92%, so if I buy it and refi the house total cost for me is $17,750.
But when I looked a Zillow the properties in that area are $87,000 to $97,000. But Zillow shows that house equity over the next ten years not much change.Zillow shows that property at $43,000. I am looking for rentals back east to grow my portfolio.
