A Decade of Land Investing Experience in 60 Minutes - Interview with Renee Riker
#30: Renee and I both learned about the world of land investing and land flipping about ten years ago when Jack Bosch launched his first course on the subject.(Show Notes: https://REtipster.com/30)After a lot of emails back and forth, we eventually joined a mastermind group with a few other people. Over the years, we have learned an absolute TON from each other, simply by acting as a sounding board for one another, sharing our successes, our frustrations (of which there have been plenty) and figuring out the best ways to run a land business.In a lot of ways, Renee has helped me to see the power behind a mastermind group (even if that group only consists of one other person). For me, it has frankly been WAY more powerful than any mentors I’ve ever paid for. When two or more people are seriously dedicated to the same business AND willing to share what they’re learning with each other, they’re both inevitably going to learn a lot in the process. 🙋🏻♂️ Get the REtipster Newsletter (It's FREE)!Stay updated with top real estate investing insights and strategies 🚀 Land Investor’s Action Plan (Free 5-Day Course!)Solve the 5 mistakes that keep investors stuck ⚠️ Land Buyer’s Survival Guide (Free 5-Day Course!)Avoid the 21 most deadly land-buying blunders 👉 10X Your Income from Land InvestingLearn how to start and supercharge your land investing business 😀 Join the REtipster Forum!Connect with experienced investors and get expert advice. 🛠️ All My Favorite Tools and Resources 🛠️The best software, services, and gear I use daily

What is the "Infinite Banking Concept" (and is this really legit)?
#25: In this interview, I talk with M.C. Laubscher, who is an expert in the Infinite Banking Concept. My goal with this conversation was to get more clarity on the pros and cons of this strategy and to figure out whether or not this was something that would fit into my financial picture.(Show Notes: https://REtipster.com/25)I always felt like I wasn’t being told the whole story by other “financial advisors” who were just trying to sell me a life insurance policy, so in this conversation, my goal is to get to the bottom of what the IBC can and can't do (and hopefully, you'll learn something along the way). 🙋🏻♂️ Get the REtipster Newsletter (It's FREE)!Stay updated with top real estate investing insights and strategies 🚀 Land Investor’s Action Plan (Free 5-Day Course!)Solve the 5 mistakes that keep investors stuck ⚠️ Land Buyer’s Survival Guide (Free 5-Day Course!)Avoid the 21 most deadly land-buying blunders 👉 10X Your Income from Land InvestingLearn how to start and supercharge your land investing business 😀 Join the REtipster Forum!Connect with experienced investors and get expert advice. 🛠️ All My Favorite Tools and Resources 🛠️The best software, services, and gear I use daily

#24: Back in July, I enlisted the first full-time "employee" for REtipster.com.(Show Notes: https://REtipster.com/24)His name is Jaren Barnes, and if his name sounds familiar, it may be because you heard an earlier conversation I had with him on Episode 10 of the REtipster Podcast.Jaren is a pretty remarkable guy, and he's going to play a pretty significant role in the future direction and content you see coming out of this website, so I thought it was only fair for us to spend some time getting to know him, and talking a little bit more about the origins of REtipster.com, and the general direction we see this community going in the future. 🙋🏻♂️ Get the REtipster Newsletter (It's FREE)!Stay updated with top real estate investing insights and strategies 🚀 Land Investor’s Action Plan (Free 5-Day Course!)Solve the 5 mistakes that keep investors stuck ⚠️ Land Buyer’s Survival Guide (Free 5-Day Course!)Avoid the 21 most deadly land-buying blunders 👉 10X Your Income from Land InvestingLearn how to start and supercharge your land investing business 😀 Join the REtipster Forum!Connect with experienced investors and get expert advice. 🛠️ All My Favorite Tools and Resources 🛠️The best software, services, and gear I use daily
