Ready to embark on an inspiring journey with Derek Vickers, the man who exchanged his door-to-door insurance sales career for the lucrative mobile home park investment? Join us, as we wander through Derek's intriguing life story from Virginia to Florida, from the insurance field to the challenging but rewarding world of the real estate market. As COVID-19 hit, he saw the opportunity in mobile home parks and took on this venture with his exceptional cold-calling skills. 

Derek's first real estate deal was no smooth sail, but he weathered the storms heroically. He shares his triumphs in turning around a troubled trailer park in Brevard County, Florida, into a desirable place to live. He navigated through difficult owners, delinquent tenants, and even municipal regulations. Particularly, his struggles in Florida, offer a unique perspective on the complexities and rewards of investing in mobile homes. 

Derek does not stop at sharing his experiences but also shares tips on overcoming real estate challenges. From leveraging his team for consistent leads to staying persistent when making sales calls, he is a treasure trove of useful advice. He also underscores the importance of systems and processes in this business, with examples from his own journey. Wrapping up, Derek discusses his approach to automation, the importance of standard operating procedures, and provides a sneak peek into his masterclass program, where he lays out the ins and outs of underwriting, structuring, and financing deals.
