In this episode of the Mailbox Money Show, Bronson uncovers the high-reward world of land development with Brandon Cobb. They break down the two-phase process: land entitlement (securing approvals for forced appreciation) and horizontal development (infrastructure like roads and utilities for ready-to-build lots). Brandon reveals how to mitigate risks via pre-sold contracts with national builders (e.g., Lennar, D.R. Horton), structure deals with 18% preferred returns and 65% LTC debt, and capitalize on current market freezes. From Tennessee's cyclical opportunities to biohacking for peak performance (cold plunges, green smoothies, sleep optimization), discover why development offers multiple exits and legacy-building potential—perfect for diversifying beyond multifamily amid rising rates.

Brandon Cobb is the CEO of HBG Capital, a real estate development and investment firm specializing in single-family residential projects. With a background in homebuilding, he now focuses on land entitlement and horizontal development, creating shovel-ready lots for major builders.
