Is there a current code for an extended trial with landportal.com? I’m thinking there is one for 30 days or maybe even 90 days that maybe Clay indicated in recent podcast - I’ll have to go back and listen.

I have an active land investor in Florida, Arizona & Texas as top markets but also does deals in Tennessee, Carolinas, Utah or other growing areas with faster entitlement timelines. We can do projects smaller than 50 acres if utilities and zoning allow higher densities. And larger than 200 acres if deal works. We will pay market for raw land (typically agricultural or rural zoned) with residential or light commercial GP designation. We do meet acquisition terms including extended escrows of 24 to 46 months, with 120 days due diligence and deposits released every 120 days throughout escrow. Owner carry with release provisions over several years has worked well also - we pay annual deposits to seller who releases portions of the land to us each year. If someone has land under contract we can JV at 50/50 or if you have a lead that needs closing we can JV at 75/25.

Comps are not opinions. They are constraints. If your pricing is based on broker sentiment, gut feel, or loose Zillow matches, you’re guessing, not comping. Most bad land deals come from three mistakes: - Cross-band comping: Using small-acre comps to price larger tracts (price per acre drops as acreage increases). - Bad proximity: Pulling comps 15–20+ miles away where values can swing 30–40%. - Mismatched characteristics: Access type, utilities, slope, wetlands, flood zones, water frontage, these can completely change value. A real comping system enforces rules: - Same acreage band only. - ~5 miles proximity whenever possible. - Matching physical and legal characteristics. - <3 valid comps = renegotiate or walk. - Every comp documented with why it’s valid. - Larger buys audited before offers go out. Quick audit: - Same acreage band? - Close proximity? - Matching access & characteristics? If you can’t answer yes to all three, you’re not pricing — you’re hoping. Have you ever mispriced a deal because of bad comps? Yes or no.👇🏻

First month scaling with a VA: 30,000 texts sent, 61 gross leads, 10–12 qualified, 1 contract (buyer lined up). Not terrible, but far from efficient. My qualification rate was under 20%, my texter pushed junk leads, and I wasted time comping low-motivation sellers. I fixed it by creating a qualification rubric, adding a 15-min daily lead review call, and setting a hard KPI: 1 qualified lead per 800 texts. Now the CRM is clean, the VA knows exactly what to push, and I’m only working warm leads. Goal this month: 3 contracts, higher average profit, and no wasted texts—track KPIs and let the numbers show you where the leaks are.
