Ep138 Mark J. Podolsky (AKA The Land Geek) is widely considered the Country’s most trusted and foremost authority on buying and selling raw, undeveloped land within the United States.  He has been actively investing in Real Estate and Raw Land since 2001, and has completed over 5,000 unique transactions.  Mark’s company, Frontier Equity Properties, LLC, is an A+ rated BBB real estate company.  Mark has achieved this level of success largely due to his core business philosophy – “Happy Customers Guaranteed.”  Mark is the host of one of the top rated podcast in the Investing Category on iTunes aptly title The Best Passive Income Model.  He is also the host of the Land Geek Podcast- Work Smart. Earn More. Learn How.

3 Key Points:

  1. The raw undeveloped land market is an untapped real estate niche that if bought and sold correctly, can generate considerable passive income.
  2. Selling raw undeveloped land doesn’t require rehab, renters, renovations, or rodent control. It can be done from a computer anywhere.
  3. Life is a numbers game. Don’t be fearful and take risks when you can.
