Today’s guest on the Expat Money Show is Brad Warren. Brad helps investors purchase risk mitigated, pre-developed land in high-growth areas. He then assists them with selling their parcels to developers who consolidate that land into larger parcels to build housing, a shopping center, a solar farm, etc.   

WHAT WE DISCUSSED IN THIS INTERVIEW:

  • How land banking actually works, from one of the #1 sellers in Southern California. He’ll explain the fine details so you can understand it, even if you know nothing about buying vacant land out in the middle of nowhere.
  • The #1 top way to buy land and make a huge profit in 10 years or less, with as little as $25 K
  • How to truly tailor a generational and legacy wealth system from anywhere in the world. One where you can set it and forget it
  • Why it’s essentially impossible to fail with land banking
  • How to be patient and mitigate risk 
  • Top 3 ways to not have to dip into your own pockets to buy land and still make amazing returns. 
  • 12 different ways you can invest
  • Global as possible - use these strategies to buy land anywhere in the world.
  • 10 growth factors: some are simple- following the money, applicable to anywhere in the world.
  • A sneak peek into land banking, and how very lucrative it can be when done properly.
  • What happens when you have a research and acquisition department of 8-10 people all working for you, to ensure you come out on top
  • How you can achieve this outcome living somewhere other than in Southern California. What are the prerequisites? What do you need to know before anything else?
