Grant figured out a simple, repeatable system that allowed him to flip land consistently even while managing a full-time corporate job. And here's the best part. He wasn't a social media influencer.

Have you ever wondered if it's actually possible to quit your job by learning how to invest in vacant land? Well, I recently interviewed a couple who did just that. Quynh and Tri Vu went from stressed-out careers in healthcare and management to building a thriving land-investing business, generating quite a bit of money in passive income. What makes their story fascinating isn't just their success; it's how they've built their entire business around a strategy that very few people even know about. Quynh and Tri sell all of their deals with owner financing, which creates huge streams of income that pay them every single month. In just 18 months, they've grown from their first deal to managing a team of 20 VAs that virtually run their entire business for them. If you're interested in copying their strategy so you can do the same thing, this is an interview you don't want to miss.What's Inside:—How Quynh and Tri Vu created a thriving land-investing business—How to generate income streams through owner financing—How to get capital when you're in a cash crunch

What if you could get between $15K and $150K in funding at 0% interest for your next real estate deal, not in six months, not after endless paperwork, but in the next few weeks? Here, business credit expert and CEO of Credit Suite Ty Crandall shows you exactly how. In this conversation, you'll learn how to get business credit approval in 24 hours or less, why traditional banks aren't your best option anymore, and the one credit report that could secretly block your funding. I also share the strategies my current students are using to access 0% funding for 18 months. I often see investors miss out on incredible deals because they don't have access to capital. They're burning through their personal credit, splitting massive profits with hard money lenders, or worse, they're watching deals slip away entirely. There is a better way and it's something most real estate investors completely overlook. If you're interested in working with Ty, check out the links below.What's Inside:—How to get access to business credit quickly—The secret credit report that could block your access to funding—How my current students are getting 0% interest funding for 18 monthsMentioned In This Episode:CreditSuite.com/EINCreditSuite.com/CLH

I'm about to start ramping up my marketing again, but this time I want to give sellers options when making offers. In the past, I've always just made one offer, a cash offer, and that works well. But now, I'm looking to grow my passive income portfolio, and I want to buy more deals that I can turn around and sell on owner financing for the cash flow.Here, I walk through what I'm thinking about testing out. I'm curious as to how this would work in a really competitive market. I'll keep you guys updated on my progress and even do a class on it if I can crack the code. If you want to set up a land business and work with me one-on-one, I'm looking for new apprentices.

The number one rule in real estate is to make a ton of offers. Do you know the two most important numbers that will tell you the health of your real estate business? First, you need to know how many offers you've made in the last week. Second, you need to track how much follow-up you've done in the last week. The follow-up is critical. If you're making a bunch of offers, that's great, but if you're not following up, you're just throwing your marketing money away.If you're interested in working with me one-on-one, check out my apprentice program.

The two most important skills in a real estate investing business are how to find the deals and how to find the money. Here, I'm interviewing a good friend of mine, Bill Allen. He's a retired Navy pilot, a real estate investor, a serial entrepreneur, a husband, and father to three awesome boys. He's got an amazing story and something really cool coming up: a challenge on raising capital and private money for your deals. I talk a lot about digging your well before you're thirsty and why raising private money is so important. You might have a lot of money, but once you start doing enough deals, that capital is going to be deployed. Private money from other investors allows you to do more deals and scale your business. I've learned a lot from Bill over the years, and he's helped thousands of real estate investors. If you want in on Bill's upcoming event, go to JoeMcCall.com/money.

One of my clients just did eight land deals in the last three months, all while taking care of his newborn baby and working just two hours a day. The best part? He's never even visited a single one of these properties. In fact, he's sold every single deal using nothing but Facebook and Google Street View screenshots. Zach Wilde is a boxing coach who was struggling to make ends meet. Just a few months ago, he stumbled across one of my YouTube videos. Now, he has multiple properties under contract in Florida, one of today's most competitive real estate markets for land.Zach is getting tons of motivated seller leads reaching out to him every single day, all with minimal effort on his end. Out of 5,000 postcards sent, Zach made over $30,000 in pure profit. In this interview, Zach breaks down exactly how he's doing these deals. I ask him every single question I could think of thinking in terms of from a beginner's perspective, and we'll show you the simple Facebook strategy that he's using right now to sell properties lightning fast.

Could you imagine buying five acres of land for $138,000 and selling it 18 months later for $7 million? That's exactly what Isaac French did. From a former bookkeeper to a real estate mogul, Isaac's incredible journey all started when he got banned from the world's biggest rental platform: Airbnb. Isaac's story is one of the wildest success stories I've ever heard, and I know it's going to inspire you. When he was getting started, he had no fancy connections or capital and just $19,000 to his name.

Hunter Thompson has raised over $100 million in private capital for real estate with zero experience starting out. The crazy part? He did it using a strategy that no one had thought of before. I've never heard of the way Hunter does it, and it's just going to blow you away. While other real estate investors are busy fighting over coffee meetings and cold calling, Hunter realized the playbook for raising millions of dollars was hiding in plain sight through digital marketing. Hunter became the first person to combine digital marketing with real estate and capital raising, and the results speak for themselves. What's fascinating is that in even today's market, most real estate investors are still using the same old, tired-out methods. If you want the blueprint to raise money for real estate in 2025 (the easy way), you're in the right place. Here, Hunter shares his story and how his method for raising capital can work in your business.What's Inside:—How Hunter raises capital through digital marketing—How to raise your first $100K—Information on Hunter's upcoming live event, Raise Fest

2024 has come to an end, and I wanted to spend some time reflecting on the past year and talk about what I'm most looking forward to in 2025. First and foremost, my recovery from my heart condition about a year and a half ago has been a huge priority, and I'm so grateful to be alive. I'm also thankful for all my students and community who absolutely crushed it in 2024. I appreciate you all, and I'm excited about the future. I'm not seeing a slowdown at all in the real estate investing world, for houses or for land.

On a recent coaching call with one of my apprentices, we looked at some deals. One of his deals is in North Carolina and he sent a blind offer to the seller. His offer wound up being a bit too high to make good money on it, so we walked through things together. The beauty of using owner financing is that you can accept a lower cash offer and turn the remaining balance due into monthly payments. Charge some interest and you've got yourself some decent cash flow and profit coming in.Here, I walk through the scenario with my apprentice and show you the exact steps to take to start turning your land deals into cash-flowing assets. The power of cash flow by assets is that you start thinking like a rich person, not like a broke person. When you generate serious cash flow, you can achieve financial freedom. This isn't a scam or a get-rich-quick scheme. It's real estate investing 101!What's Inside:—How to turn land deals into cash-flowing assets—The power of owner financing—Why producing cash flow allows you to think like the rich do

Today we're going to be talking about one of my favorite subjects: sales. You might hate sales, but it really is the million-dollar skill you need to master.

Making a lot of money and more profit is awesome, but you can't forget the risk part, right? How can you make a lot of money without taking on a lot of risk? Today, we're talking about how to improve your numbers so you can make more profit with a lot less risk. Brad DeGraw is here from a company called All Terrain Capital. He's looking to do more land deals inside our community and he's been gracious enough to offer his services. Brad and his team are always looking for deals to lend money on. If you go to his website, you can get free comps on your deals. If you have a good deal and if you need the money either to buy and hold it or hopefully to flip it, that's what he does. In real estate and especially for land, it's not the cost of capital that's important. It's the speed and the availability of capital. Here, Brad and I talk about what to look for in a land deal, what deals to stay away from, and how to avoid making mistakes in your business. What's Inside:—How to avoid making mistakes in your land business—What to look for in a good land deal—How to work with Brad and his team

I wanted to bring on some community members to talk about the deals that they're doing. I've had a little part in helping them learn how to do vacant land deals. They're also partnering with other people in the community, which I am excited about. Through my land course and through networking with others in the group, my students are doing tons of deals and massively growing their real estate businesses.If you've been on the fence about jumping into my land investing course, these students are living proof that the program works.

If you listened to my last podcast, I talked about following the fat man, or in other words, don't try to reinvent the wheel. You also have to stop asking “what if” and start asking “what next?” If you feel like you have to have all of your I's dotted and T's crossed, you're going to get stuck and you're never going to take action. If you're new to real estate, you first pick a market, then figure out your marketing, then talk to sellers, then make an offer. Always think about the next move.Here, I talk about what it means to throw it to the cut off man. It's kind of like baseball. You're playing in the outfield, and you could be stressed over what to do if you get the ball. All you really need to worry about is getting it to the cut off guy in the infield. In my community, we love being cut off guys for people and partnering on deals. Just get the ball to us and we'll help you.What's Inside:—Why you need to stop asking “what if” and start asking “what next?”—What it means to throw it to the cut off man—How partnering with us on deals can help you win

Do you want to know the secret to real estate investing success? Follow the fat man. Here, I'm telling the story of how following the fat man while exploring a cave in Arkansas got me through without getting stuck. In real estate, following the fat man looks like following in the footsteps of someone who's found success and doing what they do.Pioneers are great, but it's tough being the first person to do something. When you're trying to get your real estate business moving, there's no need to reinvent the wheel. Just go to markets where people are already making money and get your piece of pie. Don't think that because everyone's doing something, you shouldn't do it. There's usually a reason why everyone's doing it, and that's because it works.What's Inside:—What it means to follow the fat man—Why you don't need to reinvent the wheel to succeed in real estate—Why you should target markets where people are already making money

Today we're going to be talking about self-storage, and not with just anybody. Alex Pardo is really doing it, and I've known Alex for a long time. He was running a very successful house-wholesaling business before he made the pivot to self-storage. I remember thinking he may have blown it and that storage was just a fad, but I was way wrong!Here, we talk about why you should consider self-storage as another asset class and as a complement to your existing land or house flipping business. This is a strategy you can start with just a little bit of time and money.

Would you be interested in learning how to buy a house? Well, I've done this a couple of times, and I'm gonna tell you the secret right now. I bought lots of houses with traditional bank financing.

Today, we're going to be talking about how to fund your land deals from a different perspective. Let's talk about it from the perspective of somebody who actually lends money on deals. With all of these licensing laws that are being passed in different states, making it illegal, immoral and fattening to wholesale properties that you don't own yet, it's hard to put them on the MLS. It's hard to get a realtor to help you if you don't own it yet. You don't have to use your own money to fund deals. You can use OPM, other people's money. There are a lot of funding companies out there. Here, we're talking to Logan Swanson about how he actually lends money on deals, what he's looking for, and how he underwrites the deals. We cover how to present a deal to a private lender and the things you need to be aware of. Your goal is to look like you know what you're doing, and we'll show you the formula.What's Inside:—How Logan got into land investing —What to look for in a good land deal—How to present land deals to private investors

I want to talk about the fastest way to a deal, and I don't think you're going to like it. I'll be the first to admit I'm not going to like it either. It's called the Flap Your Lips method, where you pick up the phone and make some phone calls. Talk to more people. Listen, I can almost guarantee you can do a deal if you talk to five people a day, every day, and you make an offer to every person that you talk to. It's a simple thing, right? If you make five offers per weekday and make an offer to every seller you talk to, that's 25 offers a week and 100 offers a month. Maybe you get a deal during those 100 offers. The more you do, the better your chances will be. Here, I'll tell you how to talk to realtors and give you three things to do if you want to start making more money.What's Inside:—Why talking to people leads to more offers—Three things you can start doing today to make more money—How to find and talk to realtors

We just did a deal and netted about $21,000. I'm just going to tell you a little bit about it here. We've done a lot of deals. We've been doing this business for a long time, and I wanted to share some things with you to show you how it works. And really, golf's a lot harder than flipping land. I love the game of golf, right? It's always challenging. It's always pushing me to learn and practice. And just like anything, especially real estate, the more you practice, the better you get at it. I have a friend named Jeremy who I've wholesaled a lot of houses with, and he handles everything I'm not good at. I'm not good at being on the phone, talking to sellers, negotiating, following up, and doing the sales stuff. I could do it; I just don't enjoy doing it. And when I don't enjoy doing something, I'm not very good at it, right? Here, I'll talk to you about why it's important to get really good at the basics. And if you're not good at it, then find somebody else who is.What's Inside:—Details on a recent land deal —How to find a partner to share tasks—How to be brilliant at the basics of your real estate business

Jeremy is a wholesaler here in Saint Louis and we're talking about a vacant land deal that we just did. We netted about $20,682 in profit and Jeremy is one of the best guys I know in the industry. We've done houses together for a long time. Just a few months ago, I started telling Jeremy about land and we decided to do some land deals together in southwest Missouri in the Ozarks. Jeremy's a hard money lender and a wholesaler who likes to do the stuff that I don't like to do. He likes to go out and talk to sellers, meet with the sellers, negotiate deals, get them under contract, then flip them and sell them. I'm good at behind-the-scenes stuff. I like to do the marketing, generate the leads, set up the systems, give him the VAs, and all that stuff he doesn't like to do. And then we split the profits. Here, we show you how it's done.What's Inside:—Details on a recent successful land deal—Why you should let sellers talk—How to advertise properties

Have you ever read one of those hit pieces in the newspaper or online about something going on in the real estate space, or you read an article about some guru? A few weeks ago, I was reading the Wall Street Journal, and I saw this article about an apartment syndicator guru, somebody who invests in apartments and also educates the best people how to do this. I'd recognized his name before, and my heart sank. After I was done, I was like, this is almost written like a promotional piece for this guy! I got more excited about investing in apartments. Brad Sumrok is here, and he shares how he got over that hit piece and how he built his multifamily investing empire.

I recently did a role play with a student who was talking to a seller and wanted some pointers. The property currently has tenants, and the seller wants to evict them. He's adamant about getting a certain price for the property and so we practiced going back and forth to negotiate and see if we could get an offer together. In this example, you'll see me play the role of the reluctant buyer, which is what you also want to do. You never want to chase a seller and it's important to ask as many questions of them as possible. Don't act like a desperate, motivated buyer. Your job is to ask questions and get them to come up with the number first.What's Inside:—A live role play where we talk to a seller

We're going to talk about that right here with my good friend, Tom Krol. One of the things Tom talks about a lot is revenue in the first position.

What's the best way to find buyers for your deals? Whether you're doing houses or vacant land, you should already know who your buyers are before you make an offer on the property. You should make sure you're only doing deals in markets where there is already high demand. If you're targeting these kinds of markets, you'll be able to sell your deals for much higher profits, much faster. All you have to do is make some phone calls. If you find a good deal, if you're in a good market where there's a lot of demand, if you call realtors and other investors that have bought property recently, and if you don't sell your deal in 2 to 4 weeks, you probably don't have a good deal. At that point, you can just move on. It's really that simple. What's Inside:—How to find buyers for your deals—Why you should know who the buyers are before making an offer—The advantage of partnering with others on deals

You sent out the postcards. You've gotten the leads. You started making offers. You got a good deal under contract. What are you going to do now? Where are you going to get the money to buy the deal? Maybe you can just do an assignment, a quick wholesale, or get transactional funding, but it's getting harder and harder to do wholesale deals in this market. You can't list a property you don't own, and you have to be a licensed realtor. Certain states are passing restrictive laws on wholesaling. If it's not a law in your state yet, it soon will be. So how do you get around this? Where do you find the money to close on these deals? First of all, understand that when you have a good deal, money will find you. You've got to believe that money is abundant. It's there; you just need to focus on finding good deals. You've got to get rid of those limiting beliefs telling you to have it all figured out first. Just get the deals. Get a good deal under contract, and the money will find you.What's Inside:—Why it's getting harder to wholesale—Strategies to find money for deals—Benefits of joining Joe's inner circle
