·32 min·2 clips

Their 17-year-old son negotiated nine land properties for $2,700 and sold them using multiple strategies.

Mark Podolsky, known as The Land Geek, hosts this episode featuring his star students Try and Quinn Vu from Secure Land Co. The couple shares their journey from corporate careers to generating over $20,000 in monthly recurring revenue through raw land investing. They began with Podolsky's 12-week Flight School program in fall 2022, attended a live bootcamp, and then enrolled in a year of one-on-one Epic Coaching. Their initial challenges included skepticism about sending mailers and navigating hiring, sales, and scaling their business. The Vus highlight a favorite deal where their 17-year-old son negotiated to buy nine properties for $2,700, handling due diligence and selling through various methods. Another pivotal moment was a bet with their daughter that led to ten sales in one month, earning the family two cats. They credit their coach, Tate, and the Land Geek community for providing mentorship and normalizing the entrepreneurial mindset. A key insight is shifting from needing 100% information to acting with enough data, using a large margin of safety to mitigate risks. The couple emphasizes that small wins and consistent action, like participating in every community call, build momentum. Their business now supports a lifestyle with about 90 days of travel per year, including a summer in Europe, while managing a remote team across different time zones. The tone is conversational and motivational, blending personal storytelling with practical business advice. Listeners interested in real estate entrepreneurship, side hustles, or escaping corporate jobs will find this episode inspiring. Those seeking highly technical investment strategies or skeptical of business coaching programs might want to skip it.
