Using MHVillage / JLT lists to find park owners?

Are these reports accurate enough to warrant the cost? I am beginning to build my database and am wondering the most time time and cost effective way in which to do so. Any advice on how best to build an owner database would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I wouldn’t buy a list. The database process is 4 parts.

  1. Build a list (MHVillage has a good one and it’s free to look at. Just hire a virtual assistant to move this data to a spreadsheet)

  2. County Records (Parlay 2.0 is a great service for this. It is Google Earth based so I also like to have the virtual assistant drop a pin on Google Earth once they’ve gathered the owner records)

  3. Secretary of State search to find owners of entities

  4. Skip Tracing to find cell phones, land line phones, accurate mailing addresses

Buying a list helps you with step 1 but steps 2-4 are where you start having a database that you can do something with.

@Baker I use virtual assistants who are specialized in mobile home park skip-tracing/ lead generation to build lists of park owners with MHP name, Address, # of Spaces, Owner Entity, True Owner behind the entity/LLC, Owner Address, Phone # etc. You can then reach out to the MHP owners via cold calling and direct mailing campaign. They have done a great job thus far. I find it well worth the money and it saves me a lot of time. They use different websites to gather MHP informations. You can hire cold callers at the same time to dial the numbers to get a deal under contract. The VA’s I am currently using are from overseas and only $5 an hour.
