What is a Covered Land Play? - EP.33


Listen Later

oday’s episode is about Covered Land Plays! 


A Covered Land Play is when you buy a property based on the existing use of that asset… but, what you’re really buying for is the land (in the hopes that someday it’s going to be redeveloped by you, or, perhaps the next buyer.) It has limited downside, because of the current cash flow, with big upside — so it makes for a very interesting investment strategy.


In this episode, we’ll cover everything you need to do about Covered Land Plays; what they are, why you might want to use it as one of your next investment strategies, who they’re perfect for, some examples, and how to go about pursuing one.
