buying a manufactured home/ condo

[Clarence Santee]

So i am in the military and receive roughly 1400/month just for housing and where i stay now they take it all so i don't see that extra money.

I was wondering if it would be a good idea to buy a manufactured home for say 40k and pocket the rest of the money left over from the mortgage for a year and a half until i leave the area.My concern is selling / renting out the manufactured home, do they sell or is it usually easy to find tenants ?

if not a manufactured home, would you recommend a condo for say 70k ?

any advice is helpful, thanks.
