Today's episode is from Mobile Home Park #19 that originally aired on Aug. 19, 2016.

Charles and I will be discussing how to successfully turnaround and reposition a distressed mobile home park. Buying a turnaround park isn’t for everyone, but if executed properly, your efforts should reward you handsomely in both substantial returns on your investment as well as huge amounts of built in equity and cash flow. But on the flipside, buying the wrong distressed park might potentially lead you into a downward tailspin, which will inevitably lead you to a financial loss. Our goal is to educate you so that you only buy the distressed parks that make sense.

Today's episode is from Mobile Home Park #16 that originally aired on July 28, 2016.

Charles and I will discuss mistake number 8 from our popular eBook, “The 21 Biggest Mistakes Investors Make When purchasing their First Mobile Home Park…and how to avoid them.” One thing we see often is that many investors will choose to look for parks locally for the sole purpose of being near the park. There is nothing wrong with being close to your park, but you definitely don’t need to be. If you find that you live in a market where CAP rates are insanely low or in a market that is going through tough times, you would be much wiser to invest outside of your immediate area.

The business model and management style we teach is effective whether you live across the street from your park or across the country. Don’t put yourself in the position of buying a bad investment just for the sake of being close to it. Proximity does not correlate to success in this business.
