Land Funding Expert Steve Hodgdon Breaks Down What Really Matters

181: I'm excited to have Steve Hodgdon on the show today. He's a smart guy with years of experience in land investing and real estate. Rather than overpromising, Steve gives straight-shooting advice about the real complexities of this business. (Show Notes: REtipster.com/181 ) We have a free-flowing conversation about some of the less glamorous but oh-so important fundamentals—doing your homework on deals, choosing partners wisely, and how to leverage technology to make better decisions. AI is a big part of the discussion, but he also cautions that the human element is still key to verifying deals, and legwork is still king. Steve's not flashy, but I appreciate his thoughtful approach and how generous he is about sharing hard-won knowledge. Whether you're an operator looking for funding or interested in backing other investors yourself, this chat breaks down some key ideas that any land flipper can apply right away. 📊 Manage Land Deals Like a Pro with Stride CRM Built for Land Investors!
