Today, I’m thrilled to dive into the topic of raising private capital, also known as deal funding, for your land flipping business.
This isn’t just about peddling plots of land; it’s about a transformative strategy that could massively impact your financial landscape.
Initially, it’s key to pinpoint the type of land that could quick-start your journey—the kind that’s easier to negotiate, buy, and sell.
For beginners, let’s talk about why rural recreational lands, spanning 20 to 50 acres, are the gold standard in starting your land flipping venture in areas like the South and Midwest.
Shifting gears to joint ventures, there’s an electrifying approach that can bolster your land deals without fronting your own capital.
It’s about presenting a compelling opportunity to a partner who can fund the deal while you handle the sweat equity—marketing and closing the sale.
As deals progress, the terms evolve to favor you, showcasing the dynamism and scalability of using other people’s money.
Now, let’s look at how efficiency and a consistent track record in flipping land can tilt profit splits significantly in your favor.
Advantages of Rural Recreational Land
When starting your land flipping journey, I recommend focusing on acquiring rural recreational properties between 20 and 50 acres, specifically in the South and Midwest.
I’ve found these types of properties to be the most straightforward to buy and sell due to several advantageous factors, such as:
- Simplicity of Transaction: The due diligence period is generally shorter compared to residential properties.
- Flexibility of Buyers/Lower costs: They often have less stringent closing terms, making the process smoother.
- Ease of Negotiation: If a property has been untouched and is not a primary concern for the seller, it’s much easier to negotiate a favorable purchase price.
- Lower costs: Generally speaking, the South and Midwest are cheaper to work in than the West Coast or the Northeast. Your closing costs may be $500 in Arkansas as compared to $5,000 in Connecticut.
Control Over Sales Process:
- Buying and reselling, as opposed to wholesaling:
- Allows you to better control the marketing.
- Lets you choose the right agents.
- Opens up superior exit strategies.
- Increases access to a broader buyer pool, enhancing the chance of finding premium buyers.
The Power of Using Other People’s Money (OPM)
I’m thrilled to share the game-changing benefits of using OPM, also known as LandVerse Deal Funding, in the land flipping industry.
This strategy is a cornerstone of building a successful business in this space and securing profitable deals.
Here are some things worth keeping in mind when working with deal funders:
Overview of My JV Strategy and Splits:
Deal Progression | Profit Split |
---|---|
Initial Deals | 50/50 |
After several | 60/40 |
Subsequent Deals | Up to 90/10 |
The key to using OPM effectively is to establish a successful Joint Venture (JV) relationship.
Over time, as trust is built and deals are closed promptly, the percentage of profit I take home can increase significantly.
One of the amazing aspects of OPM is that there’s no need for credit checks or income verification.
As long as I bring a solid deal to the table, I can control sizeable assets and stand to make a substantial profit when the deal closes.
What Is Expected From JV Partners:
- Bring lucrative deals that make sense financially.
- Handle all marketing and ensure properties sell quickly.
- Provide daily updates leading up to property acquisition. Communication is key.
My Incredible Results with JVs:
- Secured millions of dollars in land deals.
- Delivered over 50% returns to investors.
- Consistently demonstrated that no investor loses money on deals with me at scale.
By engaging in JV partnerships, I’ve transformed the way deals are funded and created a path for accelerated wealth building.
Remember, it takes the same effort to close a large deal as it does a small one—sometimes even less. This is why diving into big deals from the start is a sound strategy.
Finding a good deal is the golden ticket, and I am committed to making each JV partnership a resounding success.
Structuring Joint Venture (JV) Deals
When partnering on land deals, clarity in the JV structure is key. I’ve fine-tuned this approach in my days of raising private capital for flipping land and it works wonders.
Here are my compiled tips:
- Property Selection: I target rural, recreational properties between 20-50 acres, especially in the South and Midwest. These properties are ideal for flipping because they require less due diligence, have easier negotiations, and have quicker closings.
- Deal Funding: It’s a 50/50 split to start, but this can be adjusted based on the sale’s timeliness. The faster a property sells, the better the terms become. For example, starting from 50/50, my splits improved with volume and performance, eventually reaching 90/10.
- Role Clarity:
- My Role: I bring in the funding. I’m all about putting up the cash.
- Your Role: You handle the marketing and ensure the property sells within the agreed timeframe.
- Profit Sharing: The profit share adapts over time. More deals and faster sales mean a greater share for you – that’s your incentive to churn deals quickly.
- Due Diligence: When you bring a deal to me, ensure that it’s already vetted. I expect you to have spoken with brokers and locals confirming it’s a profitable flip.
- Communication:
- Pre-Closing: Update me daily on progress.
- Post-Finding: Present a full deal breakdown – the cost, sell price, marketing strategy, and more.
Progression of Profit Splits in JV Deals
When I first started in the land flipping industry, I began with a standard 50/50 split on the profits with my funding partners.
This was just the entry point though.
Performance was key. The quicker a sale I could make, the better the terms became moving forward.
- Initial Split: Started with a 50/50 split with my initial funding partners.
- Performance-Based Adjustments: As I proved my reliability, the split shifted to 60/40 in my favor.
- Building Trust: Consistent deal closures lead to an even more favorable split of 90/10—me keeping the lion’s share.
It’s crucial to understand the dynamics here, as my progression wasn’t a matter of chance but a reflection of my ability to sell properties rapidly and effectively.
The deal structure evolved, and here’s how it happened:
The strategy I applied isn’t just unique to me—it’s replicable. Whether dealing with a $500,000 transaction or a multi-million-dollar one, it’s all about bringing value-rich deals to the table.
The beauty lies in the fact that no credit checks or income verification stands in the way—just pure deal-making prowess.
And let me be clear, in all my time working with JV partners and raising capital for land deals, not once did an investor lose money with me.
Yes, sometimes a deal will return less than expected, and there are occasionally deals that don’t work out. But in the aggregate, no investors I’ve worked with have ever lost money working with me at scale.
Here’s a concise breakdown of my approach:
Step | Task | Result |
---|---|---|
1. | Find and confirm a lucrative land deal | Verified opportunity |
2. | Initiate a JV deal | Agreed terms |
3. | Market and close the property sale efficiently | Increased profit share |
4. | Consistently repeat the process | Progressive financial growth |
Remember, consistency is key. By repeatedly engaging in land flipping, especially when you do rigorous due diligence and bring fully vetted deals, wealth accumulation over time becomes not just a possibility, but an achievable reality.
Throughout my journey, I’ve raised millions, never leaving an investor at a loss. The principle is straightforward—bring in solid deals, focus on execution, and wealth follows.
The power of JV with Partners cannot be overstated; it’s the scaffold to towering financial peaks.
To my potential partners, it’s not just about bringing a deal; it’s about bringing a winning deal.
Ensure that all due diligence is done on your part so that when a deal comes my way, it’s nearly ready to be funded.
This approach has helped me build trusted relationships with funders and has been instrumental in scaling my land flipping business to immense success. Let’s keep wheeling and dealing!
Profit Split Progression | Description | Goal |
---|---|---|
50/50 | Starting split arrangement. | Equity Growth |
60/40 to 90/10 | Improved terms with success. | More control |
