In this conversational excerpt, Speaker A contrasts the saturated market of house wholesaling with the vastly under‑exploited market of land flipping. He emphasizes that there is far more land than houses, and many landowners—often inheritors—are either unaware of how to sell land or avoid listing with realtors due to past experiences or misconceptions. This creates a large pool of uncontacted sellers and a significant opportunity for investors who can employ specific strategies to acquire land directly, bypassing traditional agents. Speaker B echoes the surprise at the lack of competition in this space.
There is so much land that there is literally only limitations of what you place on yourself. Like that, that's how I see this business.
Yeah. Yeah. It was interesting too, because before we started recording, you were saying like, one of the things you said stuck out to me. You're like, man, I don't know why people aren't in this business. Or you said something, something similar to that, right?
Exactly. Yeah. Wholesaling houses is cool. Like you can make money doing it. Extremely saturated from my opinion. People still making money, but it's like with land. There's— there is far more land than there are houses. Far more land. Like, so much more land than there are houses. I can't even put it in context for somebody who's not in a land flipping business to understand how much land actually exists. And there are so many people who inherit it, and they're like— like, literally, this guy was like, look, I've never sold land before. He's like, I don't really know how to sell land. He's like, I have a lot of money. They didn't want to call the agent. He's like, I don't know how to sell land. Like, there are so many people who have land, they're like, I just want to sell, just nobody contacted me. I'm not going to take actions to go list it with a realtor because I heard, you know, other people might have whatever their experience might be with realtors. Nothing against realtors, but it's so much land, it is so much opportunity. There are so many specific strategies that you can do.
