In this episode of The Real Estate Investing Podcast, Ron Apke and Anthony Weiler reveal the #1 reason why land investors fail—and it’s probably not what you think. While breaking down the top “business killers” that derail new land flippers, they emphasize the biggest pitfall of all: fear-driven inaction.

But the real reason so many fail? They never take the consistent action needed to gain momentum. It’s not the business model that doesn’t work—it’s the mindset and approach. If fear, inconsistency, or poor market choices are stopping you, you could be missing out on life-changing profits. Tune in to learn the mindset shifts and practical steps to overcome this #1 failure point and set yourself up for success in land investing.
