JTIn today’s episode, we’re talking with a long-time member of the Land Investing Masterclass, JT Olmstead.

JT is an IT engineer-turned-land-investor who has been pursuing real estate for more than ten years. During the time JT has been involved with the REtispter Community, I've heard him offer a lot of good input and helpful feedback for others in the business. I always thought he had a good head on his shoulders, so I figured it was time to get him on a call so we could talk shop and see what kind of fascinating lessons come out.

One unique thing about JT is that he's not afraid to go after the big stuff. In this conversation, we'll talk about some of the BIG deals he's gone after, some of the unexpected problems that have come up along the way, and what it's like to move earth around and get your hands dirty.

Not surprisingly, he had a lot of sage advice to offer, and I think you'll enjoy it!
