Meet The Dad Who Made $250K Profit with Dirt in 12 Months
In this conversation, Dylan walks Clay through how he went from sending blind offers on direct mail to closing development deals worth $300-400K net — including a 22-acre subdivision he closed on seller financing, a rezoning project he personally drove around with the landowner, and a survey hack deal where he split off 30 acres from someone's homestead. He also breaks down why he focuses exclusively on Wisconsin, how local relationships with landowners, realtors, and title companies have become his biggest competitive advantage, and why he'd go all in on cold calling if he had to start over today.Follow Clay's SocialsLinkedin | Instagram | Twitter | Youtube Scale beyond hustle 🚀Learn to use land as wealth, resilience, and legacyRegister for the Next Landman Challenge on March 9:https://landman.io/challenge-fast-track-register-now?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=audio&utm_campaign=landman_challenge---[Join the Landman Accelerator]: GET YOUR FIRST OR NEXT LAND DEAL IN 90 DAYS > 🔥 CLICK HERE TO LEARN MORE👉 [FREE] JOIN NOW our Land Flipping Network in Skool + Our Landletter (Newsletter) + FREE Course for beginners > CLICK HERE 🚀 Work with Clay and the Landman team to build a 6-figure land flipping business in less than a year > APPLY HERE!👉 Apply to Get Funded On Your Next Land Deal: ...

Nick Le and Renny Benitez started Prime Terra Properties out of Dallas with no systems, no structure, and no real process, just handwritten mailers and a proof of concept that land investing could work. Last year they 5X'd their business. This episode is about what actually changed.In this conversation, Nick and Renny walk Clay through how they moved away from cold calling and into a texting-first operation, why they stopped chasing assignments and started buying properties outright, how they found a realtor in Mississippi who gets deals listed and under contract in under 60 days, and the texter-caller hybrid role Nick's brother fills that has brought them five deals this year alone.
