If you're still playing on the land market following 2020 rules, you're going to lose.

In this week's Landline Live, I break down exactly what's happening in the 2025 land market and how strategic investors are adapting to higher rates, tighter margins, and smarter deal structures.

Here's what you'll learn:

✅ Why the land market is stabilizing — not collapsing — and what that means for your strategy

✅ The deal structures actually working right now (hint: owner financing and note deals)

✅ How we're structuring terms: 5-10% down, 12-14.5% interest, 5-10 year amortization

✅ Why promissory notes beat land contracts every time — and secondary buyers agree

✅ Live deal review: Brian's 40-acre Florida survey hack and how to pivot when subdivision limits change

✅ The regions where growth meets affordability in 2025

We just got two note deals under contract last week. We're closing about 40 deals over the next four weeks. And we're offering terms on most of them because we know it moves properties faster — often for higher prices.

Traditional lending is difficult. Buyers are asking for terms. Sellers who offer owner financing attract more buyers and sell faster.

Quality over quantity. That's the play right now.

This isn't tactics from five years ago. This is what's working today in a stabilized market.
