Bandit Signs

April 26, 2017/0 Comments/in Blog, Featured /by admin

Got a question about Mobile Home ads and listings.

Coincidentally got this email Monday. (Click link to read article)

http://click.email.zillow.com/…

But, we all know… there are NO accidents! And I don’t believe in coincidences.

A Bandit Sign is our #1 favorite local marketing tool. See examples.
Pro: Easily seen and very noticeable. If you’re not using them, you might want to try.
Some you can use again. “Open House”, “We Buy Houses” or “We Buy Mobile Homes”.

Con: Costs can be $2+ per sign and stake. No big deal, just a cost.

Some get one use only. “All redone. 3 bed/2 bath new carpet/floors/etc. Space 16”

Craigslist (CL) is the main source for most of our contacts.

Pro: Free and most people go there a LOT.
Con: Rolls off in a day or 2. Sometimes hours if it’s a busy area and category.

However, Zillow is right behind it. They have a lot of ideas to assist with ads. See email below. It’s for rentals but you get the point.

We use ‘Make Me Move’. It is used for people who don’t “need” to move but if you can meet their price, they will.
Plants the seed – don’t ask for a discount cuz you have to meet MY price! Right? I like that.
Pro: Free
Con: Not much

For paid ads: Mobile Home Village www.MHVillage.com is the best for us. We do the $99 mid-range plan.
Pro: Stays up until you take it down. $99 plan shows at the top of any search in that area.
Con: $69 doesn’t show on all searches. Not as common as CL. But good site.

Mobile Home Bay www.MHBay.com is another site.

Trulia is another site. HOWEVER… You have to think like your customer. Our customers are not savvy online geeks, for the most part. Most don’t know what Trulia is or does.
Trulia – Isn’t it a lie detector site?
Pro: Free
Con: Not well known or used.

Craigslist and Zillow are the lead dogs for ads.

We have several examples of successful ads and ad templates in the course.

Happy hunting!

Here’s What Clients Have Said

“In our 1st 12 months, we added $2000 to our monthly income, and made just over $100,000, in immediate profit and payments coming in, by investing in mobile homes using the techniques that Bill Neves taught us. Using the simple techniques and scripts that he coached us with, put us on a new path to financial freedom and the future is ours for the taking.

Bill Neves, the mobile home investor and mentor, led us through the process of finding the deals, negotiating with the seller, working with the park manager, finding the buyer, marketing/ advertising, and closing the deal.

In our last deal, we purchased a mobile home for $6500 and doubled our money in two weeks with a full cash payout. Although this is an exception, we are now working on our 7th deal within the year. Taking your first step in the leap of faith can lead you on the road to financial independence.”

"Bill's win/win attitude with Realtors is raising the bar for Short Sale education in the Portland area. The ultimate win is for the customer, who receives better service from brokers who attend his trainings. Bill's knowledge on working with private and institutional lenders is superior to national trainings on this subject due to his intimate working knowledge of how OREGON conducts foreclosures. Bill is extremely valuable to my organization!"

Bill Neves is an excellent real estate investing coach. In a very short time, I was able to get several deals in the works using his guidance. He is patient, caring, and goes above and beyond the call of duty. What stands out most to me is that he is willing to work on whatever I want to work on most. His knowledge of the real estate investing world is phenomenal!

Our coaching sessions with Bill Neves were fantastic. His easy going and engaging personality, wit and sense of humor made our learning process a delight. His overall knowledge and familiarity of this business enabled us to pick-up valuable tools for taking our business to the next level and beyond. He led us to a new construction project that should yield in excess of $150,000.00 profit in less than one year, IN ONE DEAL. Thanks so much, Bill, we loved our time with you!!

I didn't realize how good Bill is until I realized that I had met with my first home owner in just three weeks! Just 3 hours on the phone and I was already doing what I thought I had to spend months learning from a book. Bill is a good dude. He is very easy to talk to and ask great questions to. He wants you to succeed. Thank you Bill.

I want to thank Bill Neves for our coaching experience. He went above and beyond to share with us his knowledge and experience. He helped us to find a mortgage broker right here in Billings that has been a real boon to our business. Our son-in-law quit his JOB already (in 30 days!!!!) and is now doing this full-time. My father has come out of retirement to start his business and is almost done with his first rehab. We had our business started and making money but Bill helped us take it to the next level.

Way to Go!!
The program is great! Hands-on, role play, the real thing! Great stuff! Bill is very good. He presented new ideas, strategies, and tons of information.
I had been doing a lot on my own, but he really got me excited. He helped me see the possibilities!
Everyone should get Bill as their coach!!

Friends,
You are very fortunate to have Bill Neves touch your life. He is a very special and smart man. A super investor and a great personal friend of mine.

We just completed mentoring with Bill Neves. He came to central Arkansas-dissected the market, brought my group up to speed and really was the proverbial "icing" on the cake.

We could have stumbled through and at some point been successful investors, but I am totally convinced that Bill cut the learning curve by double digits and was the catalyst we needed.

If you are selecting a mentor-We strongly suggest Bill Neves.

Working with Bill Neves got me into action. For several weeks, I had been considering a property; looked at it, talked to the owner, got repair estimates, but nothing in writing. After 2 sessions with Bill, I made a written offer. Fortunately, Bill walked me through the numbers correctly. After plugging actual numbers for repairs and carrying costs, I immediately realized this was NOT the great deal I initially thought it was. I used my contingencies and exited quickly. If it hadn’t been for Bill’s coaching, I would have jumped into a deal that would have lost money. Bill’s mentoring provides me with accountability, tools and support. Thank you, Bill!

Thank you, Bill Neves for being our mentor! You’re awesome! Bill came to Boise, Idaho for four exciting days and not only gave my partner and myself a wealth of information but also became a wonderful friend! A month prior we had purchased a property and we were having trouble selling it. We listened to Bill's advice and increased the price $10,000. We thought he was crazy! We sold the house a week later!! Wow! Bill also went with us to our first REIA meeting and found us a great power team including a very successful investor and a great mortgage broker. What luck is that? The broker is willing to help us with anything we need! By the end of day four we were confident and eager to put all the things that Bill had taught us into action. The coaching program is great...We just wished Bill would never leave!!!

There are a lot of Real Estate Investment Trainings out there but nothing compared with this. We got our mentor and he was basically stupendous, astounding and exciting. From the moment Bill Neves arrived to Boise he shared with us his knowledge, strategies, ideas and information without holding anything back. He highly motivated us and showed us how to take action in this world full of surprises. Not only he showed us but made us get beyond our FEAR factor which was holding us back from accomplishing our objective.

He actually ‘made us’ post a sign which led us to a deal that yielded approximately $30,000.00 profit in less than six months, IN JUST ONE DEAL that right there will pay for our real estate investment training!

The coaching program is indispensable!!!

Thanks Bill and hope to see you again soon! We will recommend you to everyone!
