Real Estate Investing for Cash Flow with Kevin Bupp

Today's episode is from Mobile Home Park #58 that originally aired on April 17, 2015.

Welcome to the Mobile Home Park Academy podcast. In this episode, Charles and I will discuss mistake number 13 from our popular eBook, “The 21 Biggest Mistakes Investors Make When purchasing their First Mobile Home Park…and how to avoid them.”

 You can fix many things in a mobile home park, but the one thing you can’t fix is the size of your lots. There are many parks that were built many, many years ago when mobile homes were routinely 40-50’ in length with lots designed with that size of home in mind. The problem is that most newer post-HUD era homes are much larger (60’, 70’, and even 80’+ in length) and would never fit onto those smaller lots and there aren’t many options to purchase smaller homes should you need to replace on of these smaller 40 to 50’ homes.

 It’s imperative that you understand what your backup plan is should you ever lose a home and need to reoccupy that empty lot. A lost home equals lost revenues and if that lot can never again be occupied due to it’s size then you might find yourself in a situation where you have a shrinking park on your hands. Know your options…

Today's episode is from Mobile Home Park #56 that originally aired on March 28, 2017.

Charles and I discuss mistake number 11 from our popular eBook, “The 21 Biggest Mistakes Investors Make When purchasing their First Mobile Home Park…and how to avoid them.”

 This is a very easy step that is sometimes overlooked by investors entering into this industry. You need to check to see if the park you intend to buy is legally allowed to be there. This may seem like a weird thing to be worried about, but the truth is that there are parks out there that don’t have permits or are permitted for fewer spaces than they currently operate with.

 Essentially, there are three types of parks: Legal, grandfathered, and illegal. You need to know what each means and who to ask about this prior to ever considering this type of investment. In addition, you also need to know how to find out how many spaces the park is allowed to have and you need to know if there are any outstanding violations. This is not a difficult step, but it is one that is essential to confident investing.

Welcome to the Mobile Home Park Academy podcast. In this episode, Charles and I will discuss mistake number 20 from our popular eBook, “The 21 Biggest Mistakes Investors Make When purchasing their First Mobile Home Park…and how to avoid them.”

There are many different ways to obtain financing on a mobile home park. Everything from a master-lease with purchase option all the way to doing sophisticated CMBS loans, we cover it all. As an investor, you need to understand what these options are and when they are appropriate.

Certain parks you will run into throughout your search will simply need to be creatively financed based on how they are performing. Being able to recognize this immediately will allow you to become a better negotiator and will keep you from wasting your time with unrealistic sellers.

Our goal is to show you how to identify the most appropriate financing options for the park you are looking at. We will also give you strategies to help make the financing process easier and make you more effective at conveying your needs to a seller. In addition to this we will show you the proper ways to structure these creatively financed deals.
