Our guest for this week’s show is raw land investment expert and founder of the popular Real Estate Investment website REtipster.com, Seth Williams.

In today’s show we’re going to be speaking with Seth about his part-time investment business and how he has created multiple streams of income by buying and selling raw land. If you’ve been a loyal listener to our show for the past few years then you’ve probably heard me previously talk about this niche of raw land investing. Our company even went as far as testing this particular niche to see if it might prove to be a potential new revenue stream for our existing investment business.

I think the most existing part about this niche is the fact that someone could essentially get started and buy their first deal for as low as a few hundred bucks. I personally feel that this niche offers a great opportunity for the beginning investor who has limited money and resources to get started in a “not so competitive” niche and start making some passive income streams which they can bank roll and hopefully later parlay into bigger deals. This is also a great niche for those looking for alternative ways to create additional streams of income and some phenomenal returns.

Whether you’re a new or seasoned investor I’m positive that you’ll get a ton of value from our interview together.

In this show with Seth you’re going to learn:

• How Seth got his start as a Raw Land investor while working a full-time job.
• How he found a unique niche by marketing directly to tax delinquent land owners.
• The reasons I feel that this type of investing is a great way for new investors to get started with very little working capital and use it as a stepping stone to get into bigger commercial deals.
• The process of obtaining a tax delinquent property owner list from the county and how to properly scrub it.
• How he was able to streamline his lead generation process by utilizing a strategic recorded message and website.
• What the due diligence process looks like on a raw piece of land.
• How to properly come up with an estimated value for a vacant piece of land.
• What his direct mail process consists of when mailing to land owners.
• And much more
