🥕 Forbes #2 Must-Have Tool for Today's Investor
What is an
Investor Carrot Website
It's not just a website — it's your real estate business running 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
Your office is always open, and motivated sellers are finding you right now on Google.
★★★★★ Voted America's Best Website for Real Estate Investors
More Than a Website —
It's Your Lead Generation Hub
Carrot is a specialized real estate marketing platform built specifically for investors, wholesalers, house flippers, and buy-and-hold landlords. Think of it as a lead generation engine wrapped in a website — not just a pretty digital business card.
Most websites just sit there looking nice. A Carrot website works. It attracts motivated sellers through Google searches, converts them into leads with strategically placed forms, and keeps your pipeline organized — all automatically.
Mike Butler worked directly with Carrot's founder to create the "Mike Butler Template" — the only template inside the Carrot platform specifically designed for buy-and-hold investors, not just flippers and wholesalers.

The Story Behind the Partnership
How Mike Butler & Carrot joined forces to create the ultimate investor website template
"
Years ago, I was running websites built on WordPress with a bunch of plugins. Every time WordPress updated their software, something would break. It was a nightmare. That's when Carrot's founder Trevor Mauch reached out.
I said, "Trevor, I love your platform — but it's not built for investors. Real investing means buy and hold. West Coast flipping is a job, not an investment." So Trevor handed me one of his WordPress-based Carrot sites and said: "Make it do everything you want it to do. My team will polish it."
We went to work and built the Mike Butler Template — the only template inside the entire Investor Carrot family specifically designed for buy-and-hold investors. Then I struck a deal: anyone who joins Gold, Diamond, or Platinum gets the Investor Carrot website completely free.
