Next, we'll discuss a more balanced team structure, including roles like a transaction coordinator and acquisition manager, which can significantly reduce your daily workload. For those looking to take on larger projects like subdivisions or developments, we'll explore the components of a larger team, including underwriters, acquisition managers, and transaction coordinators.

Hey folks, welcome back to the Land Fixer Podcast. I'm your host, Logan Swanson, and I am excited to talk to you today about, you guessed it, land. Here we talk about all things land, because we love land. And my topic today, after my last video, which was all about my mistakes, is something I'm actually decently good at, and that is selling land. How to sell land, obviously, it could be its own masterclass. Maybe I wouldn't be qualified for a masterclass, but I can give you probably a lot of helpful hints. I'm going to try to cover the gamut here in about 15, 20 minutes of how to market and sell land in today's age. So some of it's very high level and some of it's very basic, and we're going to start high level. But before we do, if you are a land investor and you need to sell land, you need to reach out to me. I have the best land selling website ever at primelandexchange.com, where we're marketing directly to real estate investor minded folks, okay, folks that see land as an asset class, something that they can invest in.

I'm happy to partner with you and man, I'm going to get you the best ROI possible for your property, whether I buy it cash or I partner with you to develop it. So we're going to start talking about how to buy and sell land. First, we're going to talk about it as a professional. So if you're a land investor like myself, there's a few key things to do to make yourself successful in the long term and especially to build upon your marketing dollars. So instead of spending $100 in marketing for a single property and then it disappears, when that property sells, you can actually invest in your brand and have those dollars stack. So we're going to talk about branding. Branding is a big deal when you are a land seller, because in this day and age, when people are buying and selling on land, it's really not just about the property. It's about legitimacy. It's about people seeing you as a professional, someone who they'd be excited to do business with. The ways to do that are obviously maybe a great website, a good social media presence, things like that really help. I think the most important thing is a very clear sales process. And this is where most people really struggle. So when people are buying land from me, they know exactly what to do because I'm always telling them every step of the way, or if one of my salespeople, which I don't have many anymore, are managing it, they're gonna be telling them exactly what to do, what the next step is, so that every moment of their land buying journey, it's very clear to them where they're going. And I think this is not the case with a lot of people. So having a decent brand is important. That's your, again, website, social media. But even more importantly is a fully underlined, detailed list of expectations for the land buyers that they are never lost. They never are sitting there wondering what's the next step because that's where distrust begins to rear its ugly head. If they think that they're being taken advantage of in any way, that's really easy in real estate because they might feel like maybe it's the right property, but are they overpaying? Or maybe it's the right property, but are they asking the right questions? Or maybe it looks like the right property, but can I actually build on it in the future? Whatever it is, anytime there's an opportunity for those seeds of distrust to be sown and nurtured and grown, you really want to avoid that so you can get them to the closing table. So that, if you're focusing and developing your brand, then your marketing spend, so where you are spending your money to drive traffic to a property, property if it's hosted properly in a good website, like the website templates that we build for you on Shopify, then that conversion to your website allows you to remarket to those people very affordably, either through email marketing or through social media marketing or any of the other retargeting channels that are out there. I mean, that allows you to more affordably reach out to people who have already expressed interest in buying land, but also is sending people to your website so they get to know your brand, your identity, who you are, if there's a picture of your family on the website. So it's not just them buying the parcel but it's k

Hi folks, welcome back to the Land Fixer podcast. I'm your host, Logan Swanson. Today, we're going to talk more about, you guessed it, land! In this episode, I'll dive into seven mistakes I've made while buying land as an investment and share the lessons learned from each experience.

In this engaging episode of the 'Land Fixer Podcast', host Logan Swanson delves into the fascinating sphere of land surveying, a crucial part of land investment. Discussing everything from the basic principles of surveying, the significance of historical figures like George Washington in the profession, to the revolutionary impact of modern tools like GPS and laser scanning, this episode aims to demystify the intricate process of surveying. Unfolding the various types of surveys, namely, boundary, topographical, geodetic, and construction surveys, the discussion emphasizes their roles in property boundaries, land contours, and planning future construction developments. The host also explores how recent advancements like drone-enabled LIDAR and GPS mapping software are transforming accuracy and precision in the field. The importance of choosing an appropriate surveying firm is delved into, explaining how large civil engineering firms, mid-size surveying firms, boutique surveying firms, and one-to-three-man operations can cater to different land development needs. Knowledge of these different types of firms can remarkably refine your investment strategies. Shedding light on the significance of surveying from an investor's perspective, the host recalls his personal transformation from considering surveyors as an unnecessary expense to acknowledging their essential role in property buying. The revealing data from surveys can significantly influence purchase decisions, from uncovering setbacks and zoning issues to assessing if a property has shifted from its original CAD mapping, thereby, speeding up property selling. Finally, the episode underscores that understanding a property survey is quintessential for an investor, as it helps grasp completely what they are acquiring, ensuring peace of mind at closing deals. The rich dialogue provides valuable insights about the advantages of working with land surveyors in real estate.

Welcome back to the Land Fixer Podcast, hosted by Logan Swanson. This episode takes a detour from traditional land buying and selling discussions to explore a less common yet fruitful investment strategy—Land Leasing. This underutilized avenue can serve as a continual revenue source from your land, allowing you to maintain ownership while leasing it for multi-purpose usage. Despite its versatility, land leasing isn't widely explored, and this episode aims to shed light on its types, benefits, and structures. In this exciting episode, we delve deeper into the mutual benefits of land leasing. For owners, it ensures regular income from the land without having to sell it off. Renters or lessees, on the other hand, save on hefty initial investments and low ongoing payments, and even have excellent potential for additional revenue. We discuss various lease formats – from fixed and variable leases to percentage leases tied to revenues or crop yields and ground leases allowing developmental freedom. Imagine a land asset that continues to generate income with minimal maintenance or be passed on as a valuable asset. That's the power and beauty of land leasing. Tune in to explore how this can revolutionize your land investing journey, adding value to your properties and diversifying your portfolio. Beyond the general overview of land leasing, we delve into the nitty-gritty of crafting lease agreements, the potential tax implications, and understanding insurance liabilities. We also advocate for consulting professionals - attorneys, real estate brokers – especially if you're less experienced in this domain. We broaden our horizon to discuss various lease types including agricultural, commercial, renewable energy, and conservation leases, and more, each with its unique purpose and benefits. Discover, for instance, how commercially leasing odd pieces of land near highways can create income, or how energy leases can transform idle land into profitable solar farms. This episode is about discovering the vast potential of land leasing, learning how to optimize value, monetize property, and diversify your investments further.
