You Tell Me The Problem. I'll Build The Workshop Around It.
I'm going to run a workshop. But not the kind where I show up and talk at you for an hour. I'm talking 3+ hours, one problem, we don't stop until it's solved. The thing is, I don't want to guess what that problem is. I want you to tell me. I'm not a mind reader, but I do know the Land Business. What's the one thing standing between you and your next deal? Be specific. The actual wall. The thing most people won't say out loud. Maybe you're brand new and don't know where to start. Maybe you've been at this a while and something specific keeps breaking down. Whatever it is, just say it plainly. The problem that shows up most in the comments wins. That's what the workshop is built around. And whoever submitted it gets 30 minutes with me after. One on one. No pitch, just us working through your specific situation. Drop it in the comments. Submissions close June 4th at midnight ET!!

Would love to see a deep dive on the customer journey from a brand new seller lead to the end, whatever the end of that journey is. For example: new lead --> qualified --> offer made --> (offer accepted) new lead --> qualified --> offer made --> (offer declined) --> long term follow-up Or whatever the various pathways look like for different scenarios. How do you qualify leads, build rapport, never let a lead slip through the cracks and follow up so you're top of mind when the time is right for them to sell.
Seller Finance Arbitrage Offer Strategy
Hi everybody - first post here. Very excited to be around other killer operators and growing together! I'm curious about the Seller Finance Arbitrage strategy Clay has mentioned a few times in his videos. How exactly does it work? Would love to add this into my toolbelt!

Cash flow is king and saves you from the lumpiness of doing all cash flips. This is one of the cleanest ways to build it. Here is an example. You buy a property on terms from a motivated seller. Say $50,000 purchase price, $5,000 down, $500 a month for 10 years. You then sell that same property to an end buyer on terms like $80,000 sale price, $10,000 down, $800 a month. You get paid $5,000 at acquisition and create a $300/month cash flow spread. Make sure your underlying note allows for early payoff without penalty, and confirm there is no due-on-sale clause in your purchase agreement. Some sellers will not do this, but most will. If the Seller wants interest, try stepping it up over time (i.e. 1% year 1, 2% year 2, etc.) so as the interest rate increases, you're paying it on a lower principal amount. Get 20 of these running and you've got a nice steady stream of income.
Reverse-Engineering Our Land Business Targets — Sanity Check?
@Clay Hepler - working through the Week 1 Landman Challenge homework @Jennifer Gross and I spent some time reverse-engineering our goals and it was a really helpful exercise. Here’s the operating model we landed on: 160K SMS → 240 offers → 8 contracts → 5 deals → $100K revenue → $20K net Key assumptions: • $20K average deal spread • 70% close rate • ~1 contract per 30 offers • ~1 contract per 20K texts Goal:$100K/month gross → ~$20K/month operator take-home after OpEx and taxes. Would you mind sanity-checking whether these funnel assumptions look reasonable from your experience? Particularly curious if anything jumps out as unrealistic in the SMS → offers → contracts math. Appreciate any quick feedback. 🙏

@James Gross - Love seeing the reverse engineering of an outcome. The assumptions are mostly solid. Might tweak the close rate a little. We see 30-40% of contracts fall out for one reason or another. Bad perc tests, title issues, sellers who get cold feet. If you want certainty of 5 closed deals, aim for 8 to 10 contracts. Your $20K spread assumption is solid for rural parcels in the $40-80K range. One tip: track every fallout and why. That data is worth more than any marketing tactic.
