Here, we dive into what real rapport-building looks like, not just with your spouse or family, but with sellers, buyers, and business partners.

Grant Donoho closed 53 vacant land deals in his first 18 months while working a full-time job. Here, I will show you how you can do the same. 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.

Grant breaks down his exact strategy, including the step-by-step marketing system that keeps the deals flowing in.

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 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.

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. Through the program, the marketing is all done for you, and I’ll give you 60 leads in 60 days.

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.

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. In part one of this two-part interview, Isaac will show you that anyone can win big with vacant land because it's such an overlooked opportunity in the market today.

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.

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.

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

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.
