MHI Lesson 7: Mobile Home Investing in a New State With Stuart Bateh
Welcome back,
In today’s Mobile Home Investing Podcast episode #7 I’m excited to welcome back to the co-hosting microphone Stuart to discuss how his manufactured home investing business blasted off after getting started. Stuart began mobile home investing immediately after moving to a brand-new state, not knowing anyone and without previous knowledge of the market and has since grown his knowledge, cash-flow, and reputation in his local market.
Over the course of this episode we will also chime in with my experience helping other newer mobile home investors while keeping them safe, also moving to a brand new state (Texas) myself while growing my mobile home investing business across the country.
Stuart originally came to learn mobile home investing with the help of the Mobile Home Formula training and without prior real estate experience. He has since gone on to close a number of properties and build a cash-flowing business for himself by helping local manufactured home sellers and buyers.
- Stuart has drive, determination, and a willingness to take action to acheive his goals in real estate investing. These few traits to take action, follow directions, and never give-up are a few of the most crucial personal attributes for your long-term success in any real estate investing niche.
Stuart humbly agreed to spend the next 17 minutes with us on this week’s Mobile Home Investing Lessons Podcast describing his mindset and discussing what has made growing his MH investing business profitable, safe, and super-fast.

December 27, 2014hey John,
This is one of your best podcasts yet. Really enjoy these. I really like how you have broken down everything from sellers to buyers and marketing and so much else I am sure I am missing because I haven’t started yet. I am still learning so much from this site already. I suppose I just have cold feet about making mistakes. This must be common though. Any advice from someone that has been there before?
Sincerely and with thanks Phil.

December 27, 2014Hi Phil,
Thanks for commenting and reaching out. I am here to help provide you with clarity and answers for any confusions and questions you have. Not only now but into the future as well so don’t hesitate to reach out for help. In answer to your question you will be confused (in my opinion) until you have closed a few deals on your own and by yourself OR by listening in to past calls others have made to sellers/buyers, watching and practicing training videos, knowing what homes to buy and not buy, where to purchase them, what offers to make, how to speak with buyers and sellers, the paperwork involved, asking every question you have and getting it answered and of course and much much more I am forgetting in the quick reply. Said another way what has helped others is for you to see and understand “a clear path” you will be walking/running while building your business. Starting and growing your business can be done alone via a trial and error type method, or by having someone very experienced in MHI locally or out of state helping you first hand with every aspect of this business. This may sound like a huge challenge however many have succeeded before you and many will after you so ask as many questions as you can, reach out to me/others when needed, and always aim to get a seasoned investors help when possible. You are never a burden so ask the questions you need to and feel free to reach out to me about training if interested and we’ll move forward accordingly.
Talk soon,
John Fedro
