You will find, attract, and come across free mobile homes. In some scenarios these free mobile homes are not even worth zero dollars. Sometimes the seller would need to pay you money to remove the junky mobile home. Don’t aim to close every deal.Many times, on our mobile home investor videos you will hear that we invest in free mobile homes. Many times, these free prices are negotiated down from a few thousand dollars or more. However occasionally the seller simply does not want the trailer and is happy to give it away for free.Assuming that the buyer can actually remove the mobile home off of the property quickly.You will only receive phone calls from sellers when people know that you exist. They must know who you are and how you can help them. You will only find and attract free mobile homes when you’re properly advertising, marketing, and better known.Pro Tip: Begin advertising and marketing with inexpensive and guerrilla-type methods. Once you start making more profit from flip or wholesale deals, immediately reinvest everything back into more advertising and mobile homes.* 19:30 Selling the trailers AS-IS.* 20:15 Removing the bad smells.* 22:30 Doubting your investment.
