He Bought $10M of Land Using This Strategy

In this episode of The Real Estate Investing Podcast, Ron and Daniel Apke welcome Andrew Short back to the show after an incredible six months of growth. Since his last appearance, Andrew has acquired more than $10 million in land by shifting almost entirely into the world of subdivisions and entitlements.

He explains why moving away from high-volume land flips and focusing on fewer, larger deals has completely transformed his business, allowing him to generate significantly more revenue with a smaller team and less day-to-day stress. Andrew shares how paying market value for the right properties, building strong relationships with surveyors, engineers, agents, and capital partners, and focusing on creating value instead of simply buying cheap land has changed the way he approaches every deal.

Throughout the conversation, Andrew gives an inside look at how he evaluates subdivision opportunities, structures long-term purchase contracts, and manages the entitlement process from start to finish. He also discusses why he believes subdivisions represent one of the biggest opportunities in land investing today, how investors can begin transitioning into larger projects, and the importance of understanding a property's highest and best use before making an offer.

Whether you're already investing in land or looking to take your business to the next level, this episode offers a practical look at how one investor scaled from smaller flips to multi-million-dollar development opportunities by changing the way he views land.

Watch the full episode to hear Andrew break down his subdivision strategy, share real-world deal examples, and explain how he's building a lean, scalable land investing business around higher-value opportunities.
