Thank you Purchase 100k Rehab both mobiles 74k Rental income $2,600 per month Sold 234k

At first I just changed the pitch to a 1:12 rake with a pony wall under the wall end. Got turned in by a nice neighbor and had to pull a permit. So ended up building columns through floors and post and beam in front to be okay per UBC with inspector. Sort of like building a car post over half the mobile home

Sorry, just saw this. Thank you, for responding. Do you have any pics to show how? I kinda understand but am new to the whole concept.

Also, is their a way to this on a 14x56 single wide and still be able to transport it?

@@nathancollins5822 You have to watch out when adding to any mobile home as they are engineered at the factory. If you are going to stay in it or rent it out, changing it is no issue. But if you move it or sell it, it must be as built by the manufacturer to get a inspector to sign off on the install. If you are looking to be able to move from place to place , you might be better off with a park model. 5hey are registered as RVs and under different rules. If adding on to existing mobile and not moving: get a permit or not but build as an independent structure that meets UBC code that does not depend on the original walls to hold it up. You can't prove column structure to the ground using existing mobile walls and frame.

Thank you!

Gloria Davis , thanks hope it helped

FoolyLiving Yes I use a real cheap program called turbo floor plan . You can download off line for $40 to 60 bucks. gives you 3d shots when your done.

Mark Hoffman as long as it's not the exterior wall it's cake and there is room for a standard header plus haven't seen an interior cross wall that is load bearing. On exterior walls little more tricky as you don't have 8 feet and need room for header. you can use a 4 x4 and squeeze it in there. or cut down a standard door.

@@billmaxwell4717 I'm rehabing a 1970 and front door is good but casing was bad. I bought a new front prehung door and making new casing for old door to install in place of MH rear door. No problems with header.Mine has 8 foot ceilings. Must say you did a great job.

@@steveblauvelt6312 thanks, hope all went well

thank you for the explanation.

Drywall , Replaced the MDF factory ceilings with drywall and tape and texture through out the home. Lifted the roof in front room to 10 plus feet. Replaced all the light weight rafters in front room, foam insulation and trussed with 2 x 8 lumber, beam and post supports. Hope that helps

go4tows You did such amazing job. Thanks

Mike and Odin v. Yeah quite a bit more than that. purchased both mobiles and lot for 100k and sold for 319 k. The Sedona area brings some interesting investment opertunities

Bill Maxwell how much did you put into both home in renovations

Still a double wide , no additions and you can split it and move it tomorrow

go4tows I agree, it's funny when you put a mobile home on concrete blocks or foundation then it's considered a ranch and not a mobile home, but it looks like they replaced the wall panels with drywall which splitting that home to move becomes a nightmare

Thanks

Don't understand your meaning but that is the look we were going for.

they sank the foundation and raised the ceilings. it "used" to be a mobile home

Bro yes it is 😒
