Of course! I'm just talking about the stuff I've personally found.

I want the piano.. They usually have a GIANT slug of brass in the back of them.. Easy money!

The guy is smart.
Trading for burial plots.
As long as he gets them for a good price, they will always sell later.
It is like land speculating.

So when that guy repossesses a shed, does he get to keep what ever is inside at the time?

Something fishy about the burial plot ad. Wonder if he would trade for my Maxwell house/Chase and Samborn coffee can which is going to my burial plot?

Shortly after finding his ad I saw plots for sale on CL for like $4k/ea.. So I guess he's on to something?

He told me he gave them 30 days after notice of repossession and then dumped their stuff in the yard if he had to. He said he only had to do that maybe once or twice; people generally want their stuff. In general he said repossessions were rare. Maybe 50 out about of 2000 sheds sold. I do know that he cleared about 50% profit on his money after about 1 year. Still though, 2000 sheds at his whole sale cost of ~$1200/ea is A LOT of capital to float for a year!! Good thing not all 2000 people called on the same day.

I really thought his business was genius. We have lots of lake property in the general area around here and most of them are very small cottages or trailers. EVERYONE needs a shed on those lots. He just got tired of doing it since it was taking all of his free time for years and years.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
