In this episode, Dan and Mason paint a clear-eyed picture of today’s land market—where the frenzy has faded, and the fundamentals matter more than ever. They break down what it really means to operate in a “normal” environment again, where easy flips and 30-day cash cycles have given way to longer holds, smarter buys, and sharper execution.

You’ll hear how the land boom from 2020 to 2023 rewired investor expectations—and why that era of “easy money” was the exception, not the rule. From bulk acquisitions to better debt structuring, they reveal how top operators are adapting to slower demand, leaner margins, and a market that now rewards skill over speed. The conversation dives into strategies for maintaining efficiency, setting realistic hold periods, and building consistency through notes, long-term portfolios, and value-add opportunities.

They also unpack how the most resilient investors are creating advantages by mastering their product knowledge—understanding soils, zoning, utilities, and subdivision codes in granular detail—and by cultivating strategic partnerships that turn complexity into opportunity.

Tune in to discover what it really takes to thrive as the market normalizes, why less competition means more opportunity, and how disciplined, data-driven investors are building durable wealth—one informed decision at a time.
