1971 "as-is" modified singlewide

[Joanna]

My husband and I are considering buying a 1971 modified singlewide as a second home. It's in a desirable land-lease mobile home community on the Delaware shore. The roof is new in 2002. The heating (oil forced air) and AC are about 8 yrs old. We would like to renovate the interior that hasn't been changed since the 70s. The house is being sold "as-is". Any advice/warnings about this purchase?

Have it checked for aluminum wire.
If it has aluminum wire don't buy it.
If it has copper wire, have it inspected by a home inspector knowledgeable about manufactured homes before you buy it.
