152: I recently had the privilege of interviewing a well-known real estate broker who specializes in vacant land. His name is Pat Porter with RecLand.

(Show Notes: REtipster.com/153)

If you’re in the land investing business, you probably know that finding a real estate agent who truly understands vacant land is an incredible asset, and it’s not always easy to do.

Many real estate agents who specialize in houses are somewhat clueless about selling land because it’s just a different type of property that requires a different set of skills, knowledge, and network to sell quickly. Land investors need to know where and how to find agents and brokers specializing in LAND.

I’ve been looking for land agents like Pat to interview because, in some respects, guys like Pat are more knowledgeable about land than most land investors are. They also have connections and work with a lot of other land professionals. People like Pat can shed a lot of light on things land investors need to know about!

In this conversation, we cover a wide range of topics every land investor needs to consider.

152: We recently sat down with Pete Reese, a land flipper who made $4 million last year alone.

(Show Notes: REtipster.com/152)

Even more surprising is that Pete hasn't been in the land investing business for long, having only started in 2020.

Despite his relative newness to the industry, he has achieved remarkable growth and success, which we'll discuss in this conversation with him.

Before his venture into land flipping, Pete had a lot of experience in real estate as a broker, which also played a role in his success. Tune in to this episode as we explore Pete's journey and learn from his valuable insights.

Today, I’m talking with a new friend, Eric Scharaga. Eric is the founder of Damen Capital Fund, a purchaser of residential and vacant land notes.

(Show Notes: REtipster.com/151)

Before focusing full-time on notes and land, Eric worked for 23 years as a high school teacher. In 2001, he began investing in rental properties, purchasing and rehabbing single-family homes with the dream of becoming a full-time investor.

After 13 years of dealing with the constant stresses of landlording, he realized that he would never achieve his goal of financial freedom through rental properties.

In 2016, while still working full-time, Eric transitioned to the more stable and passive cash flow of notes. Since 2016, he has purchased over 500 notes, including residential performing, non-performing, active bankruptcy, and vacant land.

Eric is the author of the book Lienlord, an introduction to the power of note investing. He is passionate about personal finance and financial freedom and enjoys introducing land investors to the importance of seller financing.

Disclaimer: No one in this conversation is a CPA or Financial Advisor, and we don’t provide legal, tax, or financial advice. In this conversation, we’re sharing Eric’s experiences as an investor, and we encourage you to seek professional advice before making any investment decisions.

150: I first heard about Peter Nukasani earlier this year when he was interviewed by Jessey of Pebble, and he talked about how he got 1,300 land deals without sending ANY direct mail.

(Show Notes: REtipster.com150)

Peter is a land flipper with a unique approach to the business. Rather than sending mail and buying properties directly from private owners, he buys land from other land investors at a wholesale price. Then he sells those properties to other land investors at a price closer to retail.

With this approach, he can streamline his acquisition process and do a higher volume of land deals with lower margins without dealing with the ongoing direct mail costs we're all accustomed to.

Peter has a lot of other unique ideas he's implemented in his business, and I’m excited to learn what we can from this interview.

149: I recently got an email from a guy named Ray Zhang.

(Show Notes: REtipster.com/149)

In the email, he told me he has been doing real estate for a couple of years, mainly focusing on infill land flips, and this year his net profit is about $1 million, with about 3-4 hours of work per day.

His niche is similar to most of the land investors in the REtipster Community; he focuses on buying land at around 40 cents on the dollar and selling it back to the market at around 90 cents on the dollar.

In this interview, we'll figure out how Ray is pulling this off and what steps need to be taken to replicate this kind of success.

148: Dustin Heiner runs a website at MasterPassiveIncome.com where he teaches others how to find and invest in rental properties for long-term, passive income. He has been a good friend of REtipster for years.

(Show Notes: REtipster.com/148)

This past year, he launched a new conference for real estate investors called REWBCON (Real Estate Wealth Builders Conference), where real estate investors of all kinds gathered to learn from one another.

In this conversation, we'll hear what Dustin learned from his first year running a conference and what he hopes to deliver in the coming year for REWBCON.

147: Today, I’ve got a guest on the show who I’ve followed and looked up to for a long time. His name is Jeff Rose, and he runs a website called Good Financial Cents.

If you’re strictly a real estate investor, you may not be familiar with Jeff or his site, but I can assure you that he is a big deal in the world of personal finance bloggers.

Jeff is a specialist in wealth hacks and income accelerators and has a lot of great ideas for personal investing in general.

146: In this episode, I'm talking with AJ Osborne, CEO of Cedar Creek Capital.

(Show Notes: REtipster.com/146)

As someone who has been deeply immersed in the self-storage investing business over the past year, I can tell you that this guy is a well-known figure in this industry. He runs an annual event; he has bought millions of square feet of storage space; he has an amazing YouTube channel; he's an author, speaker, syndicator, and many other things.

AJ founded a private equity company called Cedar Creek Capital because he wanted others to benefit from the same financial freedom that saved his family at a time when they needed the security most. He has been featured on top real estate podcasts and is the go-to resource for self-storage investment advice across social media platforms.

In this interview, we'll talk about AJ's story, how he went from a coma to a multi-millionaire, and how he has created huge opportunities for many others in this industry.

145: If you've ever sold land with seller financing, and if you've taken the approach of not pulling credit reports or investigating the borrower's ability to repay (i.e., loan underwriting), you're probably familiar with the disappointment of a borrower who stops paying and leaves you to pick up the pieces.

(Show Notes: REtipster.com/145)

What if there was a better way to create a more predictable income stream from each property you sold with owner financing?

There is! And the process is surprisingly easy, especially if you enlist the help of a residential mortgage loan originator (RMLO).

In this episode, I'm talking with Max Bailey from CalltheUnderwriter.com to discuss the "how" and the "why" of using an RMLO. After hearing the rationale behind this kind of service, you may ask why you wouldn't use this for every seller-financed property you sell in the future!

144: When I first met David Denniston in the summer of 2018, he was already doing some cool things as a land investor.

(Show Notes: REtipster.com/144)

As one might expect, his business has evolved far beyond where it was in those days.

In this episode, we’ll talk about where Dave has been, how he's managed to build a sizeable team, how he's done so well investing in tax liens and tax deeds, and where he’s headed in the coming months and years (and a lot of other valuable nuggets in between).
