What does it actually take to transform a vacant building into a thriving neighborhood? Erin Satzger, President & CEO of the Northern Cincinnati Foundation, sits down with Jason Woodard, Founder and Principal of Woodard Development, to talk about what drives intentional, community-centered real estate development across the Ohio region.With over 20 years of experience and more than a half-billion dollars in real estate transactions, Jason has helped reshape downtown Dayton through projects like the Water Street District — turning underutilized spaces into mixed-use destinations that attract jobs, residents, and investment. In this conversation, Erin and Jason dig into the intersection of real estate, philanthropy, and economic development — and why the built environment matters more than most people think.#RealEstateDevelopment #CommercialRealEstate #UrbanDevelopment #AdaptiveReuse #MixedUseDevelopment #RealEstateInvesting #CREIndustry #UrbanInfill #PropertyDevelopment #RealEstateDeveloper#Philanthropy #EconomicDevelopment #PhilanthropyDrivenDevelopment #NorthernCincinnatIFoundation #CommunityInvestment #ImpactInvesting #CharitableGiving #PurposeDrivenBusiness#Entrepreneurship #FounderStory #BusinessLeadership #SmallBusiness #VisionaryLeader #BuildingBusiness #GrowthMindset #Innovation #JasonWoodard #WoodardDevelopment #ErinSatzger

Chris Gavre breaks down how to buy vacant land and flip brand new mobile homes for $40K per deal using FHA financing and a repeatable 4-month system.In this episode of RealDealChat, Jack Hoss sits down with Chris Gavre of The Land Sharks to unpack one of the most underrated strategies in real estate investing right now: buying raw vacant land, placing a brand new manufactured home on it, making it FHA compliant, and selling it for $40,000+ in net profit per deal.Chris and his partner Robert have done 50-60 of these in a single year with a lean two-person operation.Topics covered in this episode:Why this strategy out-performs traditional house flipping on predictability and marginsHow to source vacant land using zoned and filtered county dataThe FHA compliance process: detitling, brick skirting, and the engineer certificationWhat a double wide costs wholesale from manufacturers like Clayton and Champion ($62-72K)How to net $40-45K per deal with total development costs around $40-50KThe 4-month timeline from land purchase to closed saleWhy 95% of buyers use FHA financing and what that means for your exitHow to fund these deals when hard money lenders have never heard of the strategyRunning 18-19 simultaneous projects with just two peopleThe zoning, septic, and permitting process broken down step by stepWhy direct mail pulls better leads than cold calling for this buy boxIf you're a real estate investor looking for a predictable, scalable alternative to house flipping or new construction, this episode is worth a listen.

In this episode, we break down a masterclass in commercial real estate investing. Jennings walks through a real case study where a colleague transformed a vacant 80,000 sq ft industrial warehouse from a distressed asset worth $1.2 million into a high-performing property valued at $3-4 million—all by securing a tenant before closing the deal. The core strategy? Identify vacant commercial properties bleeding money, use Google Maps to find companies with matching space needs in the area, then cold-call their accounting departments to reach decision-makers who know their lease timelines and facility constraints. By solving both the seller's problem (vacant building) and the tenant's problem (need for space), you create a repeatable playbook that works across any commercial asset class. You'll learn how to mitigate risk through binding leases, leverage third-party capital to do deals without all your own cash upfront, and structure deals that banks actually want to finance. This is value-add investing at its finest. As always, thanks for listening!

There's a push for the timescale for the completion of works relating to the Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant to be extended due to the scarcity of workers.

A total of €31.5 million in funding has been approved by Clare County Council under the grant to date, enabling works on 534 properties countywide. Councillor Ryan says the tight timeframe is putting pressure on people.

Speaking in the Seanad, Senator Conway says leaving buildings lying idle in a housing crisis in unacceptable.

Now he's back — fresh off his biggest month ever at $233K in top line revenue — and he's sharing everything.

Video game adaptations have always been dodgy, but I dare say Resident Evil (2002) is among the dodgiest. Vacant of gory R-rated fun and unoccupied by characters of the slimmest depth, the only true resident seems to be an obnoxious soundtrack.  In other words, this movie is speaking our language. We completely overhaul the film's opening to both drive the mystery and bring the motivations of the main characters into view. There's much back and forth whether to keep the amnesia plot, or dump it entirely. And we had a METRIC TON of insightful listener comments.

Vacant buildings = more upsideYou avoid paying a premium for someone else's lease‑up work.You create value through rehab + leasing (forced appreciation), not just clip coupons.Stronger negotiating positionVacant = motivated seller; you have more leverage on price, terms, and concessions.Priced by $/sq ft, often at or below replacement cost.Cleaner from a legal/lease standpointNo legacy leases, estoppels, co‑tenancy clauses, or messy files to inherit.You set your own lease standards from day one.Market conditions favor existing vacant buildingsHigh rates + high construction costs = very little new supply.Low national vacancy (≈4–5%) = strong demand for quality space that already exists.Math can be dramatically better than stabilized dealsExample: All‑in at ~$928k vs. stabilized value at $1.85M → $900k forced appreciation.Vacant strategy can create multiples more equity than buying fully stabilized for cash flow.Vacancy risk must be planned forKeep 6–12 months of operating costs in reserve (or financed/raised).Underwrite 12–18 months to stabilize; don't assume instant tenants.Brokers and data are crucialGood brokers (commission‑only) protect their time—bring serious deals and a clear buy box.Use them for rent comps, TI norms, free rent, and realistic lease‑up timelines.Strategy is for growth‑focused investors, not retireesBest for those aiming to build wealth and scale a portfolio, not live off immediate cash flow.Holding 3–7+ years lets you maximize NOI growth, tax benefits, and 1031 options.

In this episode of the Massive Passive Cash Flow Podcast, Gary Wilson sits down with land investor Sumner Healey to uncover one of real estate's most overlooked opportunities—land flipping.   Discover how investors can generate active income without dealing with tenants, repairs, or utilities, and why vacant land is a powerful entry point into real estate investing. Sunder shares his journey from failed door-knocking to closing profitable land deals, along with a simple blueprint for beginners to get started with as little as $5K–$10K.   If you're a real estate agent, investor, or entrepreneur looking for scalable income strategies in 2026, this episode breaks down how to leverage data, direct mail, and smart acquisition tactics to build a profitable land business.  

Vacant buildings are often treated as the problem—but what if they're just the symptom? In this episode of Develop This!, contributing correspondent Joi Cuartero Austin sits down with economic development expert Eric Reader to unpack the deeper forces behind community vacancy challenges. From market realities and ownership dynamics to infrastructure and policy barriers, Eric shares why quick fixes often fall short—and what to do instead. This conversation dives into the importance of asking better questions, taking a block-by-block approach, and building sustainable momentum that leads to long-term investment and revitalization. If your community is struggling with empty spaces, this episode offers a smarter, more strategic path forward. Key Takeaways Vacancy is often a signal, not the root issue—diagnosis matters. Understanding property ownership and local market dynamics is critical before action. Infrastructure and regulatory environments can either accelerate or stall revitalization. A block-by-block strategy can create visible wins and build momentum. Sustainable change comes from long-term thinking, not quick occupancy fixes. Key Topics Covered Diagnosing vacancy as a symptom of broader economic challenges Strategic questions to evaluate properties, owners, and markets The impact of infrastructure and regulation on redevelopment Prioritizing and mapping vacancies for targeted action Building momentum through incremental, place-based strategies Memorable Sound Bites "Vacancy is often a symptom of bigger problems." "Quick fixes may not be the long-term solution." "Start small, build momentum, and iterate."

2026 Colorado landlord laws introduced more housing-related bills than any year in recent memory — and landlords nearly paid a steep price. One proposal would have let tenants halt evictions mid-process with claims as vague as “transportation issues.” Another would have required landlords to attach a full lease to every demand notice. Neither passed — but the margin was closer than most investors realize. Chris Lopez sits down with Brandon Scholten, owner of Keyrenter Denver and a deeply active voice in Colorado landlord advocacy. Brandon manages over 1,100 doors across the metro area and has held a personal rental portfolio since 2012. He’s been tracking Colorado’s housing legislation for years and came to this conversation with his most detailed briefing yet. If you own rentals in Colorado, understanding Colorado landlord laws in 2026 is no longer optional. This episode covers every bill that moved through the session — what passed, what was killed, and what’s quietly still working its way through the process. Brandon breaks down real case studies from his own managed properties, including a mold remediation on Laden Street that triggered the new habitability law’s full alternate housing requirements, and a domestic violence case where both spouses filed simultaneously. In This Episode We Cover: The eviction bill that nearly passed — and the 80 people who showed up to stop it Colorado’s new utility billing clarification: how to allocate shared utilities without sub-metering (which was running $9,000+ per building) What the warranty of habitability expansion actually requires when a tenant reports mold — 72-hour containment, alternate housing, and a daily per diem The 30-day notice rule now baked into Colorado law for federally backed properties How the domestic violence bill plays out when both parties in a lease file simultaneously The fee disclosure law in effect since January 2026 — and why Zillow compliance is still inconsistent New security deposit rules: 10-year useful life on carpet, itemized receipts required, and walkthrough rights The direction of Colorado landlord laws in 2026 is clear — and the investors who stay informed are the ones who stay protected.

It's being argued an ineffective tax on vacant homes is allowing properties to go to "rack and ruin" across Clare. The latest Central Statistics Office data reveals this county had a residential vacancy rate of 4.3% in the final three months of 2024, with 2,515 dwellings found to be unoccupied. Just 45 homes were self-assessed as eligible for the Vacant Homes Tax in Clare in 2025 meanwhile. Shannon Sinn Féin TD Donna McGettigan says reforming the levy could be a first step towards making more accommodation available for those struggling to find housing.

Gov. Bob Ferguson appointed Matt Segal to the Public Disclosure Commission just weeks after a recall effort launched over unfilled seats. Segal's firm, Pacifica Law Group, serves as Ferguson's private counsel and defended him in two high-profile campaign controversies. The appointment fills one of two vacancies that left the campaign finance watchdog panel struggling to maintain quorum during election season. https://www.clarkcountytoday.com/news/gov-ferguson-fills-seat-on-wa-campaign-watchdog-panel-as-recall-effort-looms/ #Washington #Politics #Campaign #Ferguson #PublicDisclosure #Recall #Governor #Ethics #CampaignFinance #WashingtonPolitics

Key Takeaways:Transition to commercial: Matt moved from student housing to commercial to reduce headaches, work with business owners, and gain more control over value via NOI and cap rates.Deal source & story: Found the property on Crexi, often written off by investors. Former owner retired, left the building ~70% vacant but already subdivided with good bones (1989 build, mostly cosmetic issues).Location & upside: Building is next to Lowe's, effectively leveraging corporate site selection. Strategy is forced appreciation via lease-up at market rents and then refinancing at a conservative ~9% cap.Financing structure: Purchase price $240K, fully funded with private money (family + local investors) at ~10% interest, 2-year term, interest/principal deferred, no prepay penalty—pitched as a safe, bond-like investment.Due diligence wins:Held $5K in escrow for seller's junk; used itemized cost estimates (with AI help) to justify keeping it, then bartered with contractors to clear it at no out-of-pocket cost.Verified floor plans and discovered a tenant had taken an extra 1,000 sq ft; renegotiated to increase rent (to ~$2,000/mo) and convert to triple net.Main risk: Timeline to stabilize and refinance within 2 years; Matt wishes he had negotiated an extension option with private lenders.Support & underwriting: Leaned on mentors, local brokers/appraisers, and the accelerator community (notably Chris Thorndike) to stress-test rents, cap rates, and long-term exit strategies.Tax strategy: Pushed to close on Dec 30 to enable cost segregation and bonus depreciation for that tax year.How to replicate:Don't ignore Crexi/LoopNet—good “hiding in plain sight” deals exist.Target Boomer-owned businesses where owners are retiring and want to sell or walk away from their real estate at low prices.

Vacant and deteriorating properties are a challenge facing communities across the country—but small towns are not powerless to address them. In this episode, Liz from the Center for Community Progress shares practical strategies communities can use to inventory vacant buildings, navigate ownership challenges, and turn neglected properties into opportunities for revitalization. The conversation explores how data, partnerships, and creative thinking can help small towns reclaim the spaces that shape their future. About Liz: Liz Kozub is an Associate Director for Technical Assistance at the Center for Community Progress. As an experienced project manager and program developer, she has spent the past decade focused on helping communities develop policy solutions, partnerships, and innovative approaches to addressing systemic vacancy. Kozub draws on extensive experience building interlocal cooperation among underserved communities to support the places the Technical Assistance team serves, with a focus on land banks and code enforcement. Passionate about emboldening local leaders to make a difference in their communities, Kozub has fostered connections between grassroots leaders in community revitalization from Montgomery, Alabama to Reading, Pennsylvania; and helped local official strengthen their arguments for land banks in New Jersey and Indiana. Prior to joining the Community Progress team, Kozub was an instrumental member of the leadership team to form the Tri-COG Land Bank, a multi-municipal, community-driven land bank in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. The Tri-COG Land Bank has since grown to become a national model for land banking in the United States. She also led the establishment of a multi-municipal code enforcement program to support small under-resourced communities. Kozub received a Master of Public Administration from the University of Pittsburgh Graduate School of Public and International affairs, and Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Allegheny College. She is based just outside of Buffalo, New York. In this episode, we cover: Why understanding who owns vacant properties is the first step toward solving the problem How communities can use code enforcement, land banks, and tax tools to address vacancy Why time is the biggest enemy of a vacant building Creative ways communities are using arts and community engagement to activate empty spaces How small towns can build partnerships to turn vacant properties into new opportunities Links + Resources Mentioned: Example project: Breathing Lights Example project: Dear Tamaqua and Tamaqua Area Community Partnership press: Tamaqua praised for arts, culture projects Resource: Creative placemaking in vacant properties example projects Resource: State of Land Banking Survey Snapshot Resource: Financial Impacts of Vacancy Report: Reevaluating Code Enforcement Event: Community Progress' Reclaiming Vacant Properties Conference Event/Educational Resources: Community Progress' monthly webinar series Services: Technical Assistance Brochure, or reach out to Liz at ekozub@communityprogress.org Want to get your business in front of our audience?

Today we will be discussing a phrase that sounds like a riddle, but is turning into a real policy and finance problem for low income housing in Portland: "When vacant does not mean available".  

How to Turn One Vacant Land Call Into Multiple Listings: Buyers, Agents & “Deal of the Week” OutreachWatch the full video replay: https://youtu.be/E2KPbEWfdEgDana shares how a text from an open house led to a call with a landowner whose targeted parcel was under escrow but who owns about 1,000 acres across multiple parcels and businesses. Josh outlines a “version 1.0” plan: document and demonstrate ongoing work to earn the seller's trust, then start outreach by calling all active vacant-land buyers in the parcel's zip code using the “three no's,” contact buyer's agents who recently sold similar land in the past 180–365 days, and run “deal of the week” email plus inbound social posting strategies using multiple bullet-point options to drive responses. He recommends starting with one parcel—ideally residential and with the largest buyer pool (often the lowest-price parcel)—updating the seller at checkpoints, pivoting based on demand, and using the process to uncover additional opportunities beyond this one owner.The MOST POWERFUL Motivated Seller & Cash Buyer Software!

Key Takeaways:Vacant properties still have value – you must underwrite future income and back into what you can pay today; don't let brokers sell you tomorrow's value at today's price.Start with market rent per square foot – use similar properties, OM data, LoopNet/Crexi, and broker conversations to estimate realistic market rent, then compute gross income and NOI (after vacancy and operating expenses).Use NOI and a market cap rate to get stabilized value – value = NOI ÷ cap rate; track offering memorandums in your market to understand realistic cap rates for different asset types and conditions.Build in margins for risk and returns – target a required equity multiple (Tyler uses 2x over 5 years) and make sure your maximum allowable offer (MAO) leaves room for both value creation and investor returns.Two main MAO approaches – (a) pay no more than ~75–80% of stabilized value all-in, or (b) start from stabilized value and subtract required profit, capex, TI, lease-up commissions, and carry costs to get your max purchase price.Don't ignore non‑purchase cash costs – beyond the down payment you must plan for closing costs, tenant improvements, leasing commissions, construction/renovation, and carry costs during vacancy; these can easily push your true “all-in” basis much higher.

Welcome to The A Game Podcast: Real Estate Investing for Entrepreneurs with Nick Lamagna - where entrepreneurs, investors, athletes, and fighters share the strategies that help them overcome obstacles, and achieve success.  In this episode, Nick sits down with Jack Bosch, bestselling author, educator, and creator of the Land Profit Generator, who built a $100M real estate empire by flipping vacant land and mastering self‑financing deals. Jack explains why vacant land is the most overlooked wealth‑building asset, how to structure self‑financing deals that create lifelong cash flow, and the daily habits and mindset that separate dreamers from self‑made millionaires. Expect practical tactics you can use right away: direct‑mail lead systems, wholesale and entitlement strategies, how to sell to builders or buyers with owner‑finance, and real examples of deals that scale from small flips to multi‑million developments. What you'll learn in this episode: ✅ Why land beats houses for many investors: less competition, motivated sellers, and easier systems. ✅ Three hot land niches: infill lots for builders, path‑of‑growth lots for retirees and remote workers, and mini‑ranches enabled by Starlink and remote work. ✅ Deal mechanics: how to structure contracts, use self‑financing and double closings, and leverage transactional funding when needed. ✅ Scale playbook: move from high‑volume small deals to high‑profit entitlements and vertical development as your network and capital grow. ✅ Mindset & habits: long‑term thinking, daily discipline regardless of motivation, and building systems that let you live life on your terms. Whether you're an investor, entrepreneur, athlete, or martial artist, this episode will inspire you to bring your A game to real estate, business, and life.

The family never felt comfortable in the duplex, but no one could quite explain why. For months, the children complained about shadows moving along the long hallway outside their bedroom—dark shapes that never fully formed and never stayed long enough to confront. The adults dismissed it as imagination, even as the house itself seemed to settle into an uneasy rhythm.By the final day, the duplex was nearly empty. The father had left for work. Two of the daughters were already at school. Only the mother and her youngest child remained, waiting out the last few hours before locking the door for good.Half asleep on the living room floor, the mother heard something that felt painfully ordinary: children laughing, running, and playing in the back bedroom. She called out, irritated, telling them to stop and get ready for school. The noise continued—footsteps, giggles, movement down the hallway.Then she turned her head and saw the one child who was with her, sitting quietly at her side.#RealGhostStoriesOnline #HauntedHouse #FloridaHaunting #MimicSpirit #ParanormalActivity #GhostVoices #ShadowPeople #TrueGhostStory #CreepyEncounters #Unexplained Love real ghost stories?

The Collapse of the Chinese Real Estate Market and Economic Stagnation. Guests: ANNE STEVENSON-YANGand GORDON CHANG. China's property sector faces a permanent downturn, with prices dropping 30–60% and enough vacant apartments to house billions. The government lacks the funds for a rescue. Xi Jinping's focus on high-tech is insufficient to replace real estate, which previously accounted for 25% of GDP.1905 SHANGHAI
