In this episode of The Real Estate Investing Podcast, Ron Apke sits down with Adam Reilly, a student of Land Investing Online and a fellow land investor, to dive into his inspiring journey. Adam shares how he transitioned from his engineering background into land investing, motivated by his grandma’s real estate experience and his thirst for freedom. He reveals how he discovered land investing through countless podcast hours and ultimately joined the course in February 2024. Within just one month, Adam closed his first deal—a $70,000 property he flipped for $130,000, netting an incredible $45,000 profit! This smooth and successful start set a high bar for his budding career in land flipping. Adam also opens up about the challenges he faced, including stepping outside his comfort zone to develop sales skills and maintain consistency through ups and downs. He credits the Land Investing Online community and course for helping him sharpen his processes and build confidence in analyzing deals. Looking ahead to 2025, Adam has ambitious goals: targeting larger deals, closing 1-2 deals per month, and hitting a $150k annual profit!
