Since getting started in June 2024, Nick has flipped 15 parcels for over $200k in profit, with another $275k expected from current listings, all within just 10 months!Nick shares the behind-the-scenes of his growth, including the game-changing direct mail strategy that’s helped him average 1–3 deals per 1,000 mailers using handwritten letters, folding machines, and envelope stuffers. He opens up about the challenges of the first 6 months, how he stayed consistent through slow deal flow, and how he's now scaling with confidence. Whether you're just getting started or want to improve your marketing, Nick’s story is packed with insights, ROI-boosting tips, and advice on how to treat land investing like a real business—not a hobby.
