One of the many slept on ways of investing in real estate in the Mobile Home market. Many people don't even know where to find mobile homes in the first place, so this week we had Byron Sellers, one half of the Mobile Home Elite Investors join us and teach us how to get involved.
"The owners of Mobile Home Elite Investors Byron Sellers and Sharnice Williams came into the mobile home business by fate. Their journey began on 3/3/2017. That was the day that Byron was fired from his job. After he became unemployed he started driving for Lyft. During his time as a driver he began to listen to podcasts religiously. One day he stumbled on a podcast about mobile home investing. The podcast caught his attention and he sent it to the love of his life Sharnice. The podcast peaked her interest because it mentioned that you could invest with low money down and you didn't need great credit. Shortly after listening to the podcast, Sharnice was laid off from her job at the Chicago Gas Company. In the midst of thier financial hardships Byron’s car was repossessed, leaving him unable to drive for Lyft anymore. With their backs against the wall, they decided they had nothing to lose and took the leap of faith into being full time entrepreneurs. They took out a high interest loan of $10,000 at a 24% interest rate. They then purchased 2 mobile homes that they found for under $5,000 (one for $3,700 and one for $500). Less than a month later they flipped the homes for a profit of $19,500. Sharnice’s salary at her old job was $39,000 a year. Once she realized that she just made half of her previous annual salary in a month she was convinced that they were on the right path. Her and Byron have been full steam ahead in the mobile home industry ever since. The couple has built a moblie home portfolio and developed the top educational platform online to educate investors on the industry" **

He has since emerged to realize even more rewarding heights of success in business and life.
David Meltzer has created a platform that uses four overarching principles—gratitude, empathy, accountability, and effective communication—and these principles have allowed him to communicate and mentor everyone from college students to c-suite executives. These four principles in everyday practice allow David to live by his mission to 'make a lot of money, help a lot of people, and have a lot of fun.'" - as per David Meltzer Linkedin
