How much can you get out of raw land? It’s different from your usual real estate investment asset but our guest Mark Podolsky (AKA The Land Geek) has found a way to maximize opportunities from raw land and create passive income. Mark is considered the country’s most trusted and foremost authority on buying and selling raw, undeveloped land within the United States. For almost two decades, Mark has been actively investing in real estate and raw land and has completed over 5,000 unique transactions.

Mark hosts The Art of Passive Income podcast and he’s the author of Dirt Rich: How One Ambitiously Lazy Geek Created Passive Income in Real Estate Without Renters, Renovations, and Rehabs. Having escaped the corporate world and solo-economic dependency himself, Mark works as a coach and mentor to help others achieve their financial freedom goals. He is dedicated to teaching current, relevant, “real-world” investing methods to his students.

Join us as he shares his insights about raw land as an asset. He dives deep into acquiring land and how versatile it can be during a recession. Tune in!
