In a concise 60‑second video, Anthony—who claims to have coached over 300 people and managed seven‑figure land deals—explains his quick‑screening process for identifying a good land‑flipping county, using Putnam County, Florida as an example. He first checks population density on the free Statistical Atlas, looking for a range of 50–400 people per square mile; Putnam sits at 99, which meets his criterion. He then gathers market data via Landsat (a $99/month service) or, for those with limited capital, the free Zillow site. The key metrics he highlights are roughly 1,185 land listings, a median of 207 days on market, and a median price of $20,000 per acre—meaning a typical 5‑acre parcel costs about $100,000, fitting his investment model. Anthony notes the video is a compressed overview and points viewers to a longer, one‑hour breakdown available in his free community, encouraging them to join for deeper instruction.

Here's why Putnam County, Florida is a good land flipping county explained in 60 seconds. My name is Anthony and I've coached over 300 people and oversaw 7 figures in land deals. Now, choosing the right county is the most important step, so here's what I look for and how. What we're going to do first is we're going to go to Statistical Atlas, which is free, and we check out the population density. And as I take a look here, I look for Putnam County, Florida, and I see it's 99 people per square mile, which is comfortably inside the 50 to 400 target, at least what I look for when teaching people who are just starting out. So then we switch over to Landsat, which paid at $99 a month, but it has most of the things that we need in one place. And you can do this part manually with Zillow for free if you're short on capital. That's completely fine. But for this short video, we can immediately see around 1,185 land listings, median days on market around 207 days, which also includes outliers, and the median price per acre is a healthy $20,000 per acre, which puts the 5 acres in the $100,000 range, which checks out in my book. But please keep in mind that I'm compressing this process for a short video, and I have a 1-hour video breakdown of this in my free community. So check out my profile page if you want to join. I'll see you in there.
