    How to Finance Your First Hunting Property: Expert Land Lending Secrets | 100% Wild Ep. 460 Welcome to the premiere of our new special series, Cultivating Value, powered by Buckland Funding! In this first installment, Matt Drury and Tim Kjellesvik are joined by land lending experts Megan Cheek and Jamie Whitaker to pull back the curtain on the often-intimidating world of recreational land financing. Whether you are a first-time buyer dreaming of your own 20-acre sanctuary or a seasoned investor looking to flip a prime Midwest tract, this episode breaks down the nitty-gritty details of down payments, debt-to-income ratios, and credit scores. We dive deep into why treating land as an inflation hedge is a smart move in today's market and how to position yourself with a pre-approval so you don't miss out when that perfect piece of ground finally hits the market.   The conversation doesn't stop at the bank; we explore the psychological hurdles of taking the "scary plunge" into land ownership and the strategic benefits of 1031 exchanges for long-term wealth building. From analyzing Class-A soil productivity to understanding the impact of road access and easements on resale value, Megan and Jamie provide the "concierge" coaching every landowner needs. Plus, stay tuned until the very end for a massive DeerCast announcement regarding a new feature that will completely change how you analyze the topography and "nooks and crannies" of your property. 00:00:50 – Introduction to the "Cultivating Value" special series  00:02:40 – The Series Roadmap: Improving habitat to increase property value  00:05:35 – The origin of Buckland Funding: A bank built by hunters, for hunters  00:07:00 – Concierge Coaching: What makes a specialized land lender different?  00:10:40 – Credit Scores and Financials: What do lenders actually look for?  00:14:40 – The 25% Rule: Understanding down payments and leveraging equity  00:17:15 – Debt-to-Income (DTI): Finding the right size farm for your budget  00:20:45 – Refinancing Strategies: When does it make sense to cut your rate?  00:26:00 – Time vs. Risk: Should you pay off your home before buying land?  00:32:15 – The Power of Pre-Approval in a tight land market  00:43:00 – Logging & Timber Value: How resource management affects your loan  00:49:40 – 1031 Exchanges vs. Paying the Piper: Tax strategies for flippers  01:00:30 – Value Driver Challenge: Soil quality, access, and liquidity  01:12:10 – DeerCast Feature Launch: Lidar Maps and high-resolution topography  Join the Rack Pack Facebook Group :   / n73gskjt7bfb2ngc   Get ahead of your Game with DeerCast available on iOS and Android devices App Store: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/deerc...

As a self-described "diehard" hunter who started a construction business just to spend more time in the woods, Jared breaks down the extreme persistence required to track a world-class deer that traveled over two miles between properties. From the emotional rollercoaster of jumping the buck in the early season to the high-stakes "buck alert" that pulled him off a job site on November 3rd, this episode is a masterclass in reading the wind, leveraging mock scrapes, and knowing when to make a move. Beyond the kill, Jared, Matt, and Tim dive into the tactical side of big buck success, discussing the "game-changing" impact of radish food plots and the hidden risks of cell camera radio frequencies. They explore the fascinating "Christmas morning" feeling of checking SD cards and the undeniable importance of having an understanding family when chasing "regional celebrity" status in the whitetail world. Whether you're a public land grinder or a small-parcel manager, Jared's story of a 40-inch year-over-year jump in antler growth will give every hunter hope for the next season. 03:44 – Meeting Jared Gallagher: The Man Behind the 212" Missouri Giant 05:17 – The "Diehard" Lifestyle: Hunting 24/7 and Starting a Business to Hunt 06:27 – Food Plot Secrets: Why Radishes are a "Game Changer" for Early Season 10:42 – A Family Season: Jared's 14-Year-Old Daughter's Success with a Crossbow 13:13 – First Contact: The October 5th Cell Cam Photo That Changed Everything 21:40 – The "You're Fired" Moment: Finding Out the Buck is Traveling 2+ Miles 24:14 – The Tool Bag Drop: A 10:30 AM "Buck Alert" Pulls Jared Off the Job 28:41 – 11:30 AM Patterns: Missing the Giant Three Days in a Row 33:07 – The Big Oak Move: Switching Stands for a 35-Yard Chip Shot 42:13 – 40 Inches of Growth: Comparing Last Year's 170" Frame to 212" 46:33 – Cell Cam Science: Do Radio Frequencies Spook Mature Bucks? 54:35 – The Rat Pack: Welcoming New Members to the 100% Wild Community Join the Rack Pack Facebook Group : / n73gskjt7bfb2ngc Get ahead of your Game with DeerCast available on iOS and Android devices App Store: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/deerc...
