I hope you’re ready for some truth today! Here’s the thing.. As Active Land Investors we see a lot of good and bad advice on all of the land forums out there. Some of it is really good and it inspires us to see that kind of free advice getting circulated. Then there’s post that really set us off. Those are the post that we’re talking about today. When you’re new to this and you’re trying to make a decision on an investment it’s common to seek the advice of people that have already done some deals and get their thoughts. What happens though is you don’t always get the advice from people that know what they’re doing. Join us today and check out what I mean.

I love the title of today’s show for several reasons. The first is that it just came to us during the episode which is always fun but also because it’s a reminder to me that you’ve always gotta have hope and dreams mixed into your business. When you get started with Real Estate Investing you’ve gotta have hope that it’s going to work out and then dedication and focus takes that hope and turns it into a reality. You’ve also gotta have dreams because without those you have nothing to strive towards. Those dreams don’t have to be crazy but you still need a vision of where you want to take your business. So we talk about all that today and ofcourse we try and have a little fun too so join us and let us know what you think!

Not every accepted land agreement you get back from your direct mail campaign is going to be an amazing piece of property. The access will be sketchy at best, the topography will be weird, the surrounding area could be less than desirable. So what do you do? Do you let it go and only focus on the best ones? One of our host does, well at least he did until he talked it through on this podcast. The thing is, even though the land might not be worth your original offer it is worth something to someone so you just need to find the right price to make it worth your while. It all comes down to what you’re comfortable doing and if that means only working the good deals that come back then do that but if you’re afraid you’re missing out on money making deals then you should definitely be thinking of renegotiating.

You ever see those ads or hear those stories about people who make $100,000 on their first deal? Or what about the ones where someone does over 100 deals their first year in business? Those people and stories are definitely motivating but let me assure you that if this didn’t happen to you and you’re still working on smaller deals or maybe only doing a few deals per year, you’re still doing great! The fact is that you’ve taken steps towards a goal that many people will only dream about. Creating a business and building the future you want takes time and as long as you continue to put one foot in front of the other and make progress you’re going to be okay. Just stay focused, keep working and we’ll see you at the top!
