Listen Later

In this episode, Ron Apke sits down with Nick Herzog, a Louisiana real estate agent turned full-time land investor. Nick stumbled into land flipping when a client simply asked for land comps—little did he know it would completely change his career.


After diving into Land Investing Online, he hit the ground running, but not without challenges. His first deal? A scam. Luckily, he had title insurance, got his money back, and kept pushing forward.


Fast forward to 2024—Nick has bought over 20 properties and sold 10, raking in $300K in gross profit with more deals closing soon. His biggest win? Buying for $25K and flipping it for $60K.


Nick breaks down his systems, how hiring VAs has helped scale his business, and why he's leaving traditional real estate behind for good. He and Ron also dive into why competition in land is almost nonexistent and why sticking to the basics will get you paid.


Plus, Nick shares his $500K profit goal for 2025 and his best advice for new land investors. Don't miss this one!
