Tune in as the team discusses:

• How land investing creates time and lifestyle freedom
• The systems and teams that make passive income truly passive
• Why "boring and repeatable" is a superpower in business
• Realistic time commitments: how 5–10 hours/week can be enough
• What the team doesn’t do anymore—and why that matters

With candid stories, routines, and even book and music recs, this episode showcases what it means to design your life—not just build a business.

TIP OF THE WEEK

Mark: The goal is not to create another job—it’s to build a machine. Once you do that, you’ll have the freedom to focus on what truly fulfills you.

Scott: Start with just 10 hours a week. That’s all it takes to move the needle. Focus, stay consistent, and you’ll see the compound effect over time.

Mike: The most profitable land business is often the most boring one. And that’s the point - repeatable processes create real freedom.

Jon: Fill your time on your terms. Choose what matters, and systematize the rest. That’s how you build a business that serves your life - not the other way around.

"Isn’t it time to create passive income so you can work where you want when you want, and with whomever you want?"

Tune in as the team discusses:

• What analysis paralysis really looks like in land investing
• Why overthinking can feel productive—but actually kills momentum
• Stories from seasoned land flippers who broke the habit and found success
• Tangible tips to help you act even when you feel unprepared
• A fun crossover with the Nightcap and Art of Passive Income teams

Whether you’re just starting out or feel stuck in research mode, this episode will help you get out of your head and into action

TIP OF THE WEEK:

Jon: When I first started, I was Mr. Analysis Paralysis — that was my superpower. What helped me get past it was simply taking that first imperfect step. Stop waiting until you’ve figured it all out. You learn by doing.

Mike: You don’t need to see the whole staircase, just take the first step. Action breeds confidence. Even if it’s messy, just move forward.

"Isn’t it time to create passive income so you can work where you want when you want, and with whomever you want?"

Tune in as the team discusses:

• Why quick land flips may be the right path when you're just starting out or trying to pay off debt fast.
• How Mike paid off $40K in debt within a year through wholesale deals.
• The downsides of relying too heavily on fast cash—and how it can become addictive.
• The benefits of passive income through owner financing and how it builds long-term wealth.
• Why a healthy land business should balance both strategies based on deal flow and goals.

TIP OF THE WEEK

Scott: There’s no one-size-fits-all. Some seasons call for cash, others for cashflow. What matters is having a clear goal and adjusting your strategy to match where you are.

Mike: Quick flips helped me knock out $40K in debt fast. But over time, I realized I wasn’t building lasting income. Fast cash is great—but don’t forget to build something that pays you long-term.

"Isn’t it time to create passive income so you can work where you want when you want, and with whomever you want?"

Tune in as the team discusses:

• How Rob and his wife built their land business from the ground up while juggling full-time jobs.
• The turning point that pushed them to move from hustling to systematizing.
• Why doing everything yourself limits your ability to scale—and how to break that habit.
• The importance of routines, boundaries, and staying consistent in the early stages.
• Tips on leveraging automation and hiring virtual assistants to transition into a true business owner role.

TIP OF THE WEEK:

Scott: You have to move from doing the work to designing the work. That’s the shift. Once you start building systems and trusting others with the tasks, that’s when your business truly starts to grow.

Rob: In the beginning, we did everything ourselves—mailers, listings, due diligence. It wasn’t easy, but consistency was key. If you show up every day and commit to the process, the results will come.

Mike: Momentum is everything. Whether it’s a $500 deal or $5,000 deal, what matters is taking consistent action. Keep mailing. Keep marketing. Keep learning. That’s how you grow.

"Isn’t it time to create passive income so you can work where you want when you want, and with whomever you want?"

Tune in as the team discusses:

• The myth vs. reality of “set-it-and-forget-it” passive income.

• The actual effort required to build and maintain a successful land business.
• Personal stories from Mike, Jon, and Scott about their own journeys in land investing.
• Tips for new investors to avoid false expectations and stay motivated.
   

TIP OF THE WEEK:

Jon: Build a business that runs without you. With over a hundred notes in my portfolio, I rarely talk to customers directly—it’s all automated through systems like GeekPay and supported by a reliable team.

Mike: Don’t expect magic—land investing requires momentum. Stay consistent with your efforts, and don’t fall for the myth of 'easy wins.' The rewards are real, but so is the work.
