Manufactured home on property- yes or no and why?

Title says the bottom line question.

Not a modular- axles were removed and it's tied down.

Looking for any and all advice, experience, knowledge. TIA

Details:

26 y/o, rural town in California. Relocating isn't possible as our business is here. Looking to buy first home. Looking to either make it a rental in the future, or improve & resell.

Stick-builts are a hard market. Options 350k or less all need major upgrades/repairs to be comfortable.

There is a manufactured for sale on 5 acres w/creek, permanent foundation (crawl space), with a 1b1b ADU.

Manufactured was placed in 2001 by the contractor who lived there, and has lived there since.

Well maintained, doesn't look its age. Needs some TLC. It has a gabled roof, ensuite bath, small walk in closet, added deck, and spaced well enough away from ADU.

Am I crazy to consider this?

What would reselling look like in 10 to 40 years? Would financing be possible once it's over 30 years? Would renting the MFG and ADU separately be possible? What is the realistic lifespan of a MFG?

It being essentially a 20 y/o trailer makes me nervous.

I want to make an investment, a place to live now but not be our forever home.

I read conflicting advice online, and had trouble finding answers to some of my questions, so please share your experience, advice, knowledge, etc. Genuine input needed!

Thank you 🙏

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...
