Both have significant problems. And was wondering if there is a rule of thumb to use, in repairing, or getting something else done?
First Home>
Needs New Outside Insulation and Siding. Due to Termite damage. Hell, Porbably needs insulation on roof and floors too, as the power bills are astronomical, 200+ on a single wide during the peak months. As well as critters using the floor bays as homes.
HVAC ducking integrity is probably ruined in more areas than one. And the blower or condenser unit is faulty.
The kitchen is hardly functional in IMO. And could use a good redo.
The roof has few holes. & There are plumbing and electrical issues.
Second Trailer is probably worse off, in the inner ceilling needs repair throughout. Floors are ruined, with pathetic attempts at repairs made, Rotted flooring in back part of the trailer, carpets are trash. And plumbing problems as well. HVAC had a smoking burnout during the winter but the A/C unit is working fine so far. Repairman said unit could be used sparingly but wanted to replace the whole thing. Which probably wouldn't hurt.
Insulation is also a problem, as Air constantly runs.
Back 1/4 of house probably needs to be gutted and refloored/walled, including full bathroom restore.
And thats just the problems, little own the few improvements that could be done to be helpful.
Oh and in case you can't tell, I'm biased against trailers for the most part.

Given everything that needs to be done, I wonder if its worth it to repair, even if its to sell them later?
Or if taking on the project of finding/buying or building a home would be better?
