If it were only the mobile I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole personally especially in a wet climate but with the cool shop/Apt it looks pretty neat. Don't pay (if you are financing) more than 25% of your NET income on the place and you will be golden.

Oh yeah the army moved me to alaska, half of it is going to be a rental and the garage the wife and I are going to live in. This is the first step of my retirement dream. 20 years from now we will remove the manufactured home and put up something a little nicer.

The winters suck a little up here but the summers are awesome so we will stick around for awhile.
