💸 Why Manufactured Homes Make Sense for Investors
For investors priced out of the single-family home market, manufactured homes offer lower acquisition costs, steady demand, and healthy rental returns. With prices ranging from $60K in Tucson to $176K in Chandler, you can enter the real estate market at a fraction of the cost.
Plus, these markets are showing balance—homes are not flying off the shelves, which gives investors time to evaluate opportunities, negotiate deals, and find solid cash-flowing properties.
📌 Pro Tip: Consider areas like Glendale or Mesa where homes take longer to sell. These slower markets often allow for better negotiations and value-add potential.
