20: In this episode, Neil Clements shares the three-word real estate strategy that every serious investor should live by: *Buy Discounted Assets.* It’s simple, powerful, and incredibly effective, especially in a volatile market like 2025.

Neil breaks down how relying on appreciation or hoping for rising rents is nothing more than gambling. Instead, he explains how finding discounted assets, whether it's land, houses, or commercial properties, gives you instant equity, control, and multiple exit strategies.

We dive into examples from Neil’s own investing journey, how he's built serious wealth by flipping land, reinvesting into rentals, and creating a self-sustaining system that builds long-term cash flow and net worth.

If you're tired of real estate fluff and want an actual strategy that works, you need to hear this one.

18: In this episode, Neil Clements breaks down the wild twists of the 2025 real estate market. What we’re seeing now is unlike anything we’ve experienced in the past five years. Prices are sliding in once-booming markets, interest rates remain stubbornly high, and buyers are finally regaining power.

This is what we’re calling “Buyer’s Revenge.”

In this market update, Neil explains how low migration, high rates, and a buyer drought are transforming the housing landscape, especially for land investors, flippers, and developers. The hot Southern markets of the early 2020s have cooled dramatically, while places like New York and California are seeing a surprising rebound.

Whether you're a land investor, a house flipper, or just watching the market, this episode covers what you must know to adapt your strategy. The smart players are doubling down, finding deeper deals, and preparing for the next big shift.

17: In this episode of The Real Deal with Neil, Neil breaks down the real cost of land investing depending on how you choose to fund your deals. He walks through land funders, partnerships, hard money lenders, private money, and banks, ranking each from most expensive to most profitable.

If you’re a new land investor, you’ll learn which option gives you a great start with no risk (but a big cost). If you’re more advanced, he'll show you how to shift into banks and private lenders to dramatically cut your cost of capital, and keep more profit.

You’ll also see a sample deal breakdown that shows how much each method costs over a 4-month holding period on a $250,000 property. The difference in profit? It might shock you!

If you’ve been using expensive capital or you’re unsure how to fund your next deal, this episode is a must-listen!

15: In this episode, Neil Clements explores a question a lot of real estate investors ask: Should you get your real estate license?

Neil earns over 90% of his income from real estate investing, not brokering, yet he still chooses to keep his license active. Why? In this deep dive, Neil walks us through the surprising ways a license gives him major advantages in his land investing business, especially in a non-disclosure state like Texas.

He also talks about how being licensed gives him early insights into market trends (like the current land slowdown of 2025), allows him to monetize deals even when he can’t buy, and how he gets paid on both sides of a transaction. But it's not all sunshine—there are serious downsides too, and Neil shares those as well.

If you're a land investor, real estate investor, or even thinking about getting into the game, this episode will help you decide whether getting licensed is worth it for you.

In this final part of our land development series, Neil Clements discusses the most overlooked (but essential) part of any subdivision project: utilities and improvements.

Neil breaks down how water, electricity, and sewage access can make or break your land deals, especially if you’re a land investor working on subdivisions in rural areas. We also cover the hidden costs of hydraulic studies, impact fees, and septic versus sewer options that every land flipper needs to understand.

Beyond utilities, Neil shares how simple land improvements, like clearing access paths or removing waste, can dramatically increase property value and buyer interest.

This episode is packed with practical land development tips and hard-earned lessons from someone who's done dozens of deals.

If you're serious about land investing or building out your real estate portfolio, this is one video you don't want to miss!

In this episode of The Real Deal w/ Neil Clements, Neil walks you through the final pieces of subdividing land: approvals, pricing, buildability, and pitching edge‑lot premiums.

He shares his mistakes on minor and exempt plats, from overlooking ETJs (extra‑territorial jurisdictions) to failing buildable‑lot checks, pre‑dev meetings, and the 30‑day review rule. He also explains his 3‑4 month due diligence timeline, which lots sell first, and why he chooses to “push paper” instead of building homes.

If you want to subdivide smart—sell faster, avoid legal surprises, and maximize profit—with minimal work, this episode is for you.

In this episode, Neil Clements dives into Part 2 of land subdivision basics—especially exempt and minor subdivisions. Neil breaks down how to quickly vet a property in just 5–10 minutes by checking:

- Road frontage requirements (county rules range from 75′ to 400′)—if the frontage isn’t there, the deal is instantly dead.
- Legal access and frontage along public streets.
- Lot sizes & demand—spot local patterns via GIS and comparables.
- Deed restrictions that may forbid subdivisions or limit structures.
- Easements, floodplain, utility corridors & topography—and how these can reduce buildable acreage or require creative offers.

Plus, he shares examples of demand patterns that made or broke a deal and how to adapt strategies based on local zoning. This is essential information if you’re a land investor, developer, or curious about land investing strategies.
