Trailers, mowers, zero turns, generators. If it's broken, we buy it cheap, fix it right, and sell it for profit — or come to you and fix it on-site.
Buy broken trailers for $300-500. Fix wiring, replace boards, swap axles. Sell for $1,200-1,500.
Mowers, zero turns, generators — people dump them cheap in fall. Fix the carb, battery, or belt. Flip for $500-1,200.
We come to you. Trailer wiring, brake lights, mower tune-ups. $100-400 per job.
Check Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, and local buy/sell groups every morning. Look for: bad wiring, flat tires, rotten boards, carburetor problems. Avoid bent frames and title problems.
Basic tools, a multimeter, a grinder, and a impact driver. That's most of what you need. The skill is knowing what to look for on the buy — not complex diagnostics.
Clean it up, take good before/after photos, list on Facebook Marketplace with your service number. Sell in 24-72 hours. Keep the cash flowing.
Between flips, take mobile jobs. Trailer wiring and brake light repairs take under an hour, pay $150-250, and every job is a potential flip lead or referral.
The money doesn't come from one thing. It stacks — flips, service calls, repeat customers, word of mouth. That's how you build a $10K/month operation from a home garage in the Dallas suburbs.
