I was wondering if it is a good idea to purchase a mobile home to live in while I'm going to college. I just turned 18 and have some money saved. The mobile home costs around $13,000 with a 20%($2,600) down payment. It is a fixed type term of 5 years. Pad fees are around $450 a month which includes taxes, garbage & lot maintenance. The mobile home has 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, 800 sq. feet , and is definitely a fixer upper. Is it a good investment or should I just rent an apartment?
I don't know much about real estate so I am pretty much clueless. Advice and tips would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time!
