The fastest way to lose momentum and money in this business is to get buried in the chaos that happens after you put a property under contract. Most investors think losing a deal comes from bad marketing or weak negotiation, but more often it happens because nobody is truly owning the closing process. Title delays, missing documents, confused sellers, nervous buyers, and endless back and forth can quietly kill what should have been an easy five- to twenty-thousand-dollar payday.

That’s why I brought my friend David Olds on to talk about what really happens behind the scenes and how to finally fix it. David is a longtime investor who built a transaction coordination company designed specifically for the problems we face as land investors. What shocked me is how simple he’s made this for anyone in real estate and how inexpensive it is when you structure it the right way. The truth is your time is far too valuable to waste chasing title companies, tracking paperwork, or herding buyers and sellers. When you hand this off, your deals close faster, smoother, and with almost zero stress.
