He will help us develop a new understanding and appreciation for how you can use this mechanism to get further, faster when you’re upsizing your portfolio, whether you're selling off a piece of land or some other type of real estate.As land flippers, we are often considered "dealers" who cannot take advantage of this helpful tool, but much of your classification depends on your intent and how well you document it along the way, so be sure to learn how to do it right! 🙋🏻‍♂️ 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

166: Jeremy Resmer contacted me recently because he's been using a new marketing tactic to find motivated sellers with TV ads.(Show Notes: REtipster.com/166)Not long ago, I talked with another land investor named Larry Jarnigo, who has also tried this out and seen pretty decent results. But Larry was doing this for more of a conventional TV medium, where the commercials appear on network television and are aired as 30-second TV spots.Jeremy’s approach is a bit different. He created and tested it for 12 months and went from doing 48 to 86 deals without changing anything in their marketing for those 12 months, so there's pretty strong evidence that it has made a notable improvement.Jeremy's current focus is on houses, but as we’ve seen with pretty much everything house wholesalers do, this kind of thing can just as well be used for land. In this episode, Jeremy will explain exactly how this works, its role among his other marketing strategies, and the kinds of real estate investors this makes sense for.🙋🏻‍♂️ 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

165: Today, I’m talking with Michael Leigeber, the Founder of LandSearch.com.(Show Notes: REtipster.com/165)I first heard about LandSearch a few years ago when a member of their team reached out to me. Even back then, when I first saw the site, I thought it was pretty cool. Over the years, the platform has only continued to improve.LandSearch is easy and intuitive to use, it’s designed much better than the other big-name land-listing platforms out there, and they've added some very nice functionality to the site that no other land-listing marketplace has thought of. I’ve even found some deals on this site before!In this conversation, Michael will help us understand what this site is about, who it's for, and the unique value it brings to the market for land investors.🙋🏻‍♂️ 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

164: Today, I’m talking with one of the most enthusiastic and inspiring land investors I know in the REtipster community, Arturo Paturzo.(Show Notes: REtipster.com/164)Arturo is an Italian Navy Officer living in Rome and running his land investing business in the US. He started this business because he was looking for real estate investment opportunities; luckily, the YouTube algorithm showed him the "land flipping life cycle" video from REtipster, and the rest is history.Ever since Arturo joined the REtipster Community and enrolled in the Land Investing Masterclass, it has been fascinating and inspiring to watch him post in our forum and Facebook group as he tries to figure out the best ways to handle various situations and because of his inquisitive nature, he helps a lot of people figure stuff out, just by asking the questions that other people either don’t think to ask or are too scared to ask.I’m also fascinated by how Art has been doing this from a long distance, in a very different time zone, speaking a very different language, while working a very full-time job in the Navy. This guy has a lot of natural challenges to work around… as many of us do, but they’re even more intense because of where he’s coming from.🙋🏻‍♂️ 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

163: Michael Quan has done a lot in his life. He ran a successful technology company for over a decade and then sold it to prioritize his family.(Show Notes: REtipster.com/163)Since then, Michael has been blogging at FinanciallyAlert.com, a published author of the F.I.R.E. Planner through Simon & Schuster, and his guy has a deep passion for personal finance and empowers others to take charge of their financial well-being.This past May, Michael and I were at a REWBCON conference. At the conference, I sat in on Michael’s presentation about how real estate investors can use AI to run their businesses.As we all know, AI has been a huge topic over the past year, with the explosion of innovative new tools and websites that can be used in many different ways to make life easier and more efficient than ever before.I’ve been racking my brain, trying to think of different ways real estate investors can use AI because I know there is huge potential here, but when I saw Michael’s presentation, I realized he had already done most of the heavy lifting for me. So, rather than me trying to teach you what can be done, Michael will teach us what can be done, and we’ll talk about some of the cutting-edge tools available to you right now.With AI, your biggest limitation is your imagination and recognizing what can be done. With any luck, after hearing what Michael has to say, you may develop some of your own ideas, and if you do, I hope you’ll share them with the REtipster Community, either in our forum or Facebook group!🙋🏻‍♂️ 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

Today, I have the privilege of talking with my friend JB.(Show Notes: REtipster.com/162)JB is a land investor who nets, not grosses, but NETS well over seven figures in the land business, year after year. And you know what's interesting? He doesn’t want or need anyone else to know about it.He’s not trying to be an influencer. He’s not trying to build an audience or sell coaching services. He just keeps to himself and plugs away, and he doesn’t need your or my approval to keep himself motivated.Whenever I hear about a land investor doing this well, I’m always curious to know more about how they do it… but you gotta admit, there’s something pretty cool about someone who does this well, and they aren't going out of their way to seek extra attention or pats on the back.I’ve been emailing back and forth with JB since 2017, and the first time I talked with him on Zoom call a couple of years ago, I invited him to the podcast… but he didn’t seem excited about doing it.Luckily for me, I was finally able to meet him face-to-face at a conference recently, where I got to know him a bit better, and he actually agreed to do this interview! Can you believe it?!So… we’re going to sit down with JB and get a peek into the world of an undercover millionaire land investor and learn more about his recipe for success.🙋🏻‍♂️ 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

161: This past May, I had the privilege of moderating a joint-podcast panel discussion in front of a live audience at REWBCON. In this conversation, with Marco Santarelli, Pili Yarusi, Annie Dickerson, Dustin Heiner, and Seth Williams (that's me)!(Show Notes: REtipster.com/161)The objective of this conversation was to get expert insights from some well-known real estate investors and influencers about where the real estate market is headed in the coming years, what we all have to be excited about, and what we should be careful about in the days to come.🙋🏻‍♂️ 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

160: Today, I'm talking with JT Olmstead, the brilliant mind behind the innovative platform Terra Notes (formerly known as YourLandLoans).(Show Notes: REtipster.com/160)Navigating land investments with seller financing can be a complex and challenging task. Errors can be expensive and cause a lot of headaches for investors. JT understood this problem all too well and decided to create a solution for it. The result is YourLandLoans.com, a website dedicated to automating and organizing payments for land investors who sell their properties with owner financing.In this informal discussion, JT explains how his software works, how much its costs, and who stands to benefit the most from it. We'll also explore why this software is such a big deal in the land investment industry. 🙋🏻‍♂️ 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
