Buy land and a mfg home/trailer or rent in WA st?

Don't have enough credit and earnings on the books yet for my small business and need to move by spring. Sitting on about 200k budget and am trying to chart a path.

I run an ecommerce business and can work from anywhere location wise. We're also homeschooling the little one for the next 3-5 years so very flexible.

Looking at older resort property in the PNW and seeing .25-1 acre lots ranging from 40-120k. This space would be great for gardening and being more self sufficient.

Trying to price a used mobile home or price out a prefab when lumber comes down. Most lots have electric in the street but no gas or plumbing. Septics seem to run around 15k-20k. Not sure about foundation pricing or other unforeseens just yet.

With big funds buying up homes now this housing bubble seems like it'll transition into a rising rental market for a good 3-5 years?

Should we focus on getting land now and live in a 32' trailer or mfg home while sorting out housing and save for something bigger in 7-10 years or throw ourselves into the rental market and pay 2500-3000/mo and pinch? I cringe at the latter as there are no vacancies in the rental market now and prices I feel are gonna climb.

Appreciate any help with guidance and/or associated costs.

We're open to Washington/Oregon ideally west of I5 for the weather.

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...

Making offers on houses not listed for sale.

I want to buy a home for retirement. I am looking at lots of options, mostly focusing on the locations that appeal to me. I see lots of Zillow estimates of homes that look like great deals to me. Are these estimates accurate, even though similar houses in the same area that are for sale are usually priced much higher? If so, is it realistic for me to try to make offers to owners that do not have their homes listed? Would a realtor even consider helping me do this? Or, do these values indicate that the houses listed for sale are overpriced, and I should just lowball until someone accepts? Are houses today tending to sell far below list prices, or ??? submitted by /u/chewybrian [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1o4mcon/making_offers_on_houses_not_listed_for_sale/
