Property Prophets

Send us Fan Mail The internet loves a hot take, especially when money is involved. I posted a tiny home I sold on a rent-to-own and got flooded with comments like “That’s just a $10,000 shed.” So I do what I always do on Property Profits: I pull the deal apart, show the math, and explain why the people yelling the loudest usually do not understand the real costs of a livable tiny home. I walk you...

Send us Fan Mail Your on-site manager can make your RV park feel calm and profitable, or chaotic and exhausting. When mine quit with a simple text about “fully enjoying retirement,” it forced a hard look at what actually matters in on-site management: clear standards, tight communication boundaries, and a system that doesn’t depend on one person to hold the whole park together. We walk through wha...

Send us Fan Mail I came dangerously close to passing on a real estate deal that turned into one of the best opportunities in my portfolio, and it wasn’t because the market was wrong. It was because my mindset was. I’m Travis Wells, and I walk you through a mobile home park investing story where the property had city sewer, city water, and over 100 spots in a location with real demand, but it kept...

Send us Fan Mail Ugly mobile home parks can be the best deals you’ll ever find and the fastest way to lose money if you don’t know what you’re walking into. We talk candidly about why distressed assets like tall grass, big vacancy, unpaid bills, and back taxes often signal real opportunity, and why the only way it works is if you can actually fix the problems instead of inheriting them. We break d...

Send us Fan Mail Empty pads don’t just look bad, they quietly drain your mobile home park cash flow every month they sit vacant. We put real numbers behind a value-add infill plan and show what it actually costs to place four homes, hook up utilities, and get to stable monthly income without relying on a glossy pro forma. I’m Travis Wells, and I break down phase one of an infill project inside a 1...

Send us Fan Mail Most investors waste months fighting over the same listed deals, then act surprised when the numbers don’t work. We take the opposite route: call owners who aren’t “selling” yet, build real relationships, and uncover off-market mobile home park opportunities where price and terms are actually negotiable. That’s where the repeatable wins live, especially if you’re chasing value-add...

Send us Fan Mail A mobile home park can look perfect at the first walkthrough and still turn into a money pit once you start pulling threads. We put our full mobile home park due diligence checklist into plain language and explain the mindset that keeps investors out of trouble: get a good deal on paper, then prove it’s real, and don’t get emotionally attached before the facts show up. We start wi...

Send us Fan Mail A signed contract doesn’t stop a seller from panicking, especially when the numbers are ugly. We get a text from a mobile home park seller who wants to back out because they overpaid, poured in a lifetime of savings, and now they’re staring down back utility bills, back taxes, and a ticking financing clock. I walk through how I respond in real time, why I tell emotional sellers to...

Send us Fan Mail Your price, my terms, my terms, your price. That little phrase can save you years of painful real estate investing mistakes, because the best deals are rarely about the lowest number on the purchase contract. We’re talking about the full picture: cash flow, debt, cap rate, refinance risk, and the negotiation moves that help you buy assets that actually perform. We share real examp...

Send us Fan Mail You don’t need perfect financials to price a mobile home park, you need the right questions and a clean way to do the math while you’re on the phone. We walk through a practical, real-world approach to mobile home park underwriting that starts with what every owner knows: lot rent, occupied pads, vacancy, and whether the tenants own the homes. From there, we show how to translate...

Send us Fan Mail Cash flow screenshots are seductive, but they rarely show what park owners actually deal with: broken laundry rooms, abandoned cars, constant water leaks, electrical issues, and the kind of resident communication that never stops. We get real about mobile home park investing and RV park ownership from the operator’s seat, sharing the messy, practical side that separates a great de...

Send us Fan Mail Wholesaling houses can look like fast money until you realize the calendar keeps flipping and you keep starting over. I talk through the moment I admitted I was tired of the grind: bigger marketing spend, more personnel, endless follow-ups, and a wholesaling world that feels increasingly saturated with people locking deals up too high and trying to fix it later. Even when you can...

Send us Fan Mail A seller calls back years after a mailer and it kicks off a bigger question: are you building a real pipeline, or are you feeding a short-term dopamine habit with “instant” leads? We get honest about pay per lead (PPL), PPC, and why “cheap” leads often mean the same seller blasted to everyone, slower follow-up, and worse conversion. The fix is not a magical channel. It’s knowing y...

In this episode, Mike breaks down his Sub2 + Rent-to-Own strategy — how he buys houses subject-to existing mortgages, sells them on lease options, keeps the down payment upfront, and still collects monthly cash flow. He also walks through...
