A short YouTube vlog by Mark J. Podolsky (the Land Geek) giving a practical tip on how to do a basic title search for raw land deals. He explains that a title search checks for breaks in the chain of title, recommends using a cheap abstractor on Fiverr for small/simple deals (mentions a $5 service), and advises using a title company for more complex transactions. The video also includes a shout-out to reviewer Seth Williams and ends with calls-to-action to download his resources and subscribe to his podcast.

Hey, it's Mark Podolski, the lane Geek with thelanegeek.com let's have another virtual cup of coffee together. So now I'm just drinking coffee, you know, like corporate coffee. It's not that great. I started this morning with my bulletproof coffee, but now it's a little bit later in the morning. I thought, ah, just have another cup especially for the coffee talk video. All right, let's get to it. First, I want to send out a big shout out, a big thank you to blogger Land blogger, real estate blogger extraordinaire Seth Williams. He did a thorough review of the Investors Toolkit, which is our flagship home study course, Soup to nuts. Everything you need to know to learn how to start buying and selling raw land pennies on the dollar and flipping it for crazy profits. And Seth was kind enough to have like a 20 minute review of the course and go through it. I'm going to link to it below. It's Fantastic and on YouTube. Alright, tip of how to do your own title search. It's a very complicated issue and when you're first starting out, I don't necessarily recommend your first few deals that you do your own title search. In fact, if you do a little search on fiverr.com There's a guy, I don't even link to him, he's an abstractor, he'll do your title search for you for $5. For $5. Now if it's a more complex deal, obviously go through a title company but for five bucks and it's a smaller deal, you can't beat that. And basically what a title search is is it's looking for any breaks in the chain of title. So from the very beginning of time, and that's really it, we just want to make sure we have nice, clean, consistent transfers of title from one entity to the other that we can track and that the person that is actually selling us our property owns that property. And there's been no break in the chain of title. So for $5 you can get that information. Saves you a lot of time and anxiety as far trying to do it yourself. Anyways, if you want more tips, tricks, techniques on how to make an incredible income actively and passively buying sorrowing raw land, go to www.thelandgeek.com, download the passive Income Blueprint, get the ebook how to Avoid the three Fatal Land Buying Mistakes and of course subscribe to the podcast and get that always informative and engaging podcast delivered each week to your email inbox.
