Having agents does cost a company more money but it also is the value that comes with it. 

It is apparent that land lease deals have the lowest upfront cost as you only have to provide the MH which can be acquired through semi-lonnie deals (somewhat a strategy of the past), or even homes that are being given away on the contingency of having them moved.

Typically it will cost a point but it’s better than hitting maturity and then have default interest kick in.

Quote from @Jeff Costa: Thanks @Chris Seveney and @Jay Hinrichs.

It will cost a Month’s rent for a “no fault eviction” (terrible name but terminology used by ab1482) if unit is over 15 years old.  

Removed a pool it will cost a lot of money also. 

I realize that you work for a builder and you might be able to save some money but lenders look at market cost as a guide.If you do for sale product, explore pre sale situations so that when you approach the lender you can show a viable exit.

Welcome @Stephen Costa!

Since a phone call doesn't even cost a dime anymore, what have you got to lose?

(I also always try to do things as low cost as possible.)
