021 Closing 2 to 3 Mobile Home Deals Monthly with the Right Team with John and Tommy

Who is on your investing TEAM? While actively mobile home investing which individuals do you work with on a daily/weekly/monthly basis? Does your TEAM change depending on your specific mobile home sub-niche (Example: mobiles inside parks VS. mobiles on private land)? In today’s quick 32-minute podcast we discuss all this and much more.

In episode #21 of the Mobile Home Investing Podcast, I’m super honored and proud to welcome Tommy to the Podcasting microphone. Tommy has only been mobile home investing for 6 months and has already amassed a total of 13 cash-flowing properties at the times of this recording. This monthly cash-flow has helped allow Tommy to start investing in mobile homes full-time. While this is a sizable income, Tommy admits he loves being able to have helped 20+ families sell unwanted properties or buy a mobile home of their very own.

Notable quotes from Tommy: “If you don’t work, it’s not going to work.” (Tommy says this just before ending the podcast and rushing out for another closing.)

Author’s note: I consider myself outstandingly fortunate to work alongside so many great real estate investors and mobile home investors. What makes these investors “great” is not always their vast wealth of real estate knowledge or experience, but instead it is the rare ability to take action, ask questions, and never quit until success has been reached. Special thanks to Tommy for helping investors he will never meet.

The picture above is the mobile home Tommy talks about starting around minute 27:00. There are some damages that will cost approximately $930 in labor and $800 in material. Tommy paid just $3,000 for this beautiful 2003 manufactured home 3/2 in a family park. This home will sell with payments over $30,000+ once repairs are complete. Tommy literally had to run out of the door to close with these eager sellers. Keep up the great daily effort to help others locally.
