  • In this video I am back to buying and selling. I find a sweet deal on a 12' utility trailer that was sitting in someones yard and completely rebuild it, and then sell it on Facebook Marketplace. I then use the trailer to pick up a craftsman riding mower that appeared to be a good deal, but it needed much more work than I anticipated. I was still able to profit from the sale, but it was a fairly time consuming project! I was about 5 minutes late to a deal on a Cub Cadet that was FREE. Better luck next time!
    Stay tuned for more projects!

    Fix it Farm is a small Southern Illinois "Hobby Farm" where we buy, sell, trade, fix, and break anything and everything with an engine. I have always had a passion for turning wrenches that dates back as long as I can remember. Like most, I grew up working on smaller projects and as I got older the projects got larger and larger. I did not grow up on a Farm, but being from a rural community I was always interested in Trucks, Tractors, and Machinery of all sizes. My goal with this channel is to reach others who share the same passion!

    For future reference those decks have a life time warranty. Of you don't touch it and take in to a dealer you will get a brand new one. Just happened to mine in the exact spot.

    It’s like most businesses, you win most but when you lose you lose a lot
    Fixing up what you can afford is still the best deal

    Awesome video!! We have so much in common I have been buying and selling so many trailers to flip and sell and atvs , Side by sides riding mowers and zero turns! Some times I don’t even have to do any work I got a nice car hauler for $1000 40 minutes away I listed it for $1800 I had it sold 4 hours later for $1,500 and I didn’t do anything to it!!! Yesterday I got a 18ft heavy duty pipe top utility trailer for $500 I drove 1 hour to pick it up . I repainted in black and put new reflecters and put new wiring led lights and side marker lights I just have to weld a new coupler and saftey chains to front and I will have a total of $660 into everything it allready had decent tires and wood floor. I will lost it for $1,800 and not take less than $1500 so if I get that I will make $840 profit for 3-4 hours of work not to bad.

      Thank you I appreciate it! Also it’s good to see that others are out there grinding as well, sounds like you have the trailer reselling figured out in your area. The cool thing about RUclips is seeing and sharing with others who have similar interests. Keep it up and keep hustling!

    I been doing the same thing with riding mowers over past couple years. I was wondering how it works for trailers as far as Titles go. What's the process on that when it comes to flipping them over faster than it takes to receive the Title in mail?

      Tile jump it don’t sign it leave it open and just let the person you sell it to sign it shits ilegal tho 😂 only if you’re caught
      Other then that you’ll need to have a dealers license

      Without a title, you can’t apply for license plates. I would not buy the trailer!

    The worst video
    He must show in detail repair procedure, part, tools. Just flip over done
    Nothing helpful there.
