Welcome to episode 42 of the Mobile Home Park Investors podcast, hosted by Jefferson Lilly and Brad Johnson, with the Park Street Partners. Jefferson Lilly invites Robert Nelson on to the show to discuss the first mobile home park Robert found, and does an analysis on the property. Jefferson walks Robert through the process, and the math, to help him come to the conclusion whether the mobile park home he found is worth the hefty price tag.

 

Key Takeaways:

[2:55] How did Robert first get involved with mobile home parks?

[7:10] How did Robert find his first park?

[8:05] Robert thought the park he found was a good park, but then he listened to episode 14 of this podcast show!

[12:55] The park Robert is looking at currently has five occupied trailers, four unoccupied trailers, and three empty pads.

[15:25] One of the unoccupied trailers has been trashed, and the owners are using it for supplies.

[17:30] Jefferson is going to assume those 5 occupied trailers do not need extra work.

[18:35] If Robert were to buy this property, he should have an extra $20,000 prepared to invest in remodeling the four empty trailers.

[23:40] Jefferson believes the price for this property is worth $215,000.

[24:45] Don’t be afraid to make offers that make sense to you. Sellers might get upset, but hey!

[26:00] Let’s look this property up on yp.com

[27:50] Join us next week for part two of this show!

[11:55] Next up, Jefferson discusses the property he acquired in the upper midwest.

[17:50] Brad talks about a mobile home park located in a fairly large metropolitan statistical area.

[20:15] Whenever you see greater than $100,000 average house prices, that's a good sign that a trailer park will do well in the area.

Welcome to episode 40 of the Mobile Home Park Investors podcast, hosted by Jefferson Lilly and Brad Johnson, with the Park Street Partners. Jefferson records this quick 9-minute episode to discuss in detail the things you can do in 30 seconds or less, to find out whether you’ve got a good mobile home park deal on your hand. As you look at more deal flow, you can’t afford to waste time on bad properties!

 

Key Takeaways:

[1:40] As you start seeing more deal flow, it’s very important to start separating wheat from chaff.

[2:25] Spend the first 15 seconds just seeing if the property is listed on the Yellow Pages website.

[3:15] Half of the deals that both Jefferson and Brad make are not listed in the Yellow Pages.

[3:25] This is a good thing. It means the owners are mom-and-pop places.

[4:10] You have a huge advantage if the owners aren’t advertising.

[5:45] Jefferson guesses that you can increase your cashflow by 10-20%, just because the owners haven’t reached these key advertising areas.

[6:05] Once done, take your next 15 seconds and head on over to Google Maps.

[6:25] You want to be located within 5 miles of a Super Walmart.

[7:55] If a Walmart is not in your area, it indicates the town isn’t doing that well economically.

[8:10] Jefferson and his team are actively raising money right now! Go to the website to find out more!
