There are different types of land deals, including infill lots, land in the path of growth, and larger recreational acreage.

Seller financing is common in the land flipping business and can be a profitable strategy.

There are private lenders who are willing to finance land deals, especially for experienced investors.

Effective marketing is crucial in selling land, as it allows potential buyers to envision the possibilities and benefits of the property.

Scaling a business requires a shift from working as an individual to building a team and developing leadership skills.
