I want to zoom out and give more context on why this book exists and where it actually came from. I bought my Paonia homestead at roughly $710,000. On paper, that number alone scares most people out of the idea of land ownership. But through creative structure, deal design, and income strategy, I was able to practically pay it off in about 18 months. That didn’t happen because I was lucky. It happened because I learned things the hard way. Before that deal, I got kicked off my dream permaculture farm. Not metaphorically. Literally displaced. Each time was expensive, destabilizing, and humbling. I made early mistakes around ownership structure, leverage, timelines, and assuming “it’ll work out” without control. Those lessons burned years and a lot of money. Over the last five years, I’ve been deep in real estate full time using creative financing. Seller financing, structuring deals, finding hidden leverage, and understanding how money actually moves. I ran a real estate investment company, and I’ve seen hundreds of deals from the inside. I’ve watched what works, what quietly fails, and what traps people financially for decades. This book is me compressing all of that into one place. Not theory. Not motivation. Not influencer nonsense. It’s everything I would hand to a younger version of myself before he made six-figure mistakes, trusted the wrong structures, or assumed banks were the only option. If you apply even part of what’s in there correctly, it can literally save you hundreds of thousands of dollars over the life of a homestead. The goal isn’t just buying land. The goal is buying land without becoming land-poor, without losing control, and without setting yourself up for stress you didn’t see coming. That’s why I wrote it. That’s why I stand behind it fully. And that’s why I say, without exaggeration, it’s worth its weight in gold for the right person.

I want to loop you in on something I’ve been building quietly for a long time. My new book is officially live on Amazon. Right now, it’s available at early access pricing for this community: - Paperback: $19 - Kindle: $9.99 This price will increase to $29 very soon once this early promo window closes. I’m opening this up to the Skool community first because this book exists for you. And I want your help pushing it forward in the first 30 days. Here’s why this matters: Amazon heavily favors books that get real reviews early. Reviews in the first month directly affect visibility, rankings, and whether the book ever gets shown to people outside our circle. If this book has helped you, challenged how you think, or clarified your path forward, a short honest review makes a real difference. What this book covers This is not theory or hype. It’s a practical framework built from real-world experience. Inside, you’ll learn: - How people are buying land without banks or traditional loans - How seller financing actually works in the real world - How to evaluate land, risk, and long-term viability before you buy - How to structure deals that don’t destroy cash flow - How to build toward a homestead or resilient property in phases - How to avoid the costly mistakes most first-time land buyers make This book is meant to save you years of trial and tens of thousands of dollars in bad decisions. How you can help 1. Grab the book at the early access price 2. Read it (or skim what’s most relevant right now) 3. Leave an honest Amazon review once you’re done That’s it. This is one of those moments where community effort compounds. If we push this together now, it gives the book a long runway and allows me to build the next pieces that stack on top of it. i’ll drop the Amazon link below. https://amzn.to/3No6qu5 Thank you for being part of this early and helping me grow it.
