Show Notes: https://retipster.com/256-jon-jasniak/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=ywkY8Hen_F8 In this episode, I sat down with Jon Jasniak, a land investor who does things differently. Jon built a $13M+ land empire by specializing in large-scale land deals, subdividing properties, and selling with seller financing. He even bought an entire town in West Texas (yes, really). We talk about how he got started, why he left a $200K engineering job, the power of Facebook ads, big wins and costly mistakes in subdivisions, and how he plans to scale to $100M. If you’re into land flipping, seller financing, or developing property at scale — this is a must-listen! 0:00 - Meet Jon Jasniak 1:11 - Why he quit engineering 3:13 - First land deal success story 4:45 - Family pushback on land investing 5:33 - Buying 53 acres for $8.5K 6:55 - How he finds deals (mostly on MLS) 7:55 - Mail strategy for 100+ acre parcels 8:52 - Best states for land development 10:28 - Why he sticks with Texas 12:09 - Using Facebook ads to sell land 13:06 - Tracking Facebook ad performance 14:55 - Typical subdivide deal size 15:35 - Moving away from small flips 16:53 - Minor vs. major subdivisions 18:33 - The real risks of big subdivides 20:19 - When he’s lost $30K on a bad deal 21:42 - His path to a $100M land business 23:53 - What a 30%+ EBITDA looks like 25:16 - Subdivision mistakes to avoid 27:37 - How he deals with county disputes 28:35 - Pros and cons of seller financing 29:53 - Why down payments matter 31:54 - Selling notes and working with buyers 32:25 - Buying Cornutis, TX (the whole town) 35:36 - How he found and bought the town 38:32 - How Cornutis makes money 41:15 - Is Cornutis a vanity project? 43:32 - What he’d do if land stopped working 48:06 - The power of creative attention 49:30 - Why he questions land flipping now 52:08 - Hobby vs business mindset in land #landinvesting #landflipping #realestatestrategy #retipster #sellerfinancing #landdevelopment #subdividingland #johnjasniak #landdeals #rawland #facebookadsforsellers #realestatebusiness #landflipper #texasrealestate #investinginland #cornutis #entrepreneurmindset #cashflowfromland #realestatepodcast #retipsterpodcast *📊 Manage Land Deals Like a Pro with Stride CRM* https://go.retipster.com/stride/yt-ywkY8Hen_F8 *Land Portal: The Data Edge Every Land Investor Needs* https://go.retipster.com/landportal/yt-ywkY8Hen_F8 (REtipster Affiliate Link) *🙋🏻‍♂️ Get the REtipster Newsletter (It's FREE)!* https://welcome.retipster.com/newsletter/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=ywkY8Hen_F8 *🚀 Land Investor’s Action Plan (Free 5-Day Course!)* https://welcome.retipster.com/5-day-email-course/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=ywkY8Hen_F8 *⚠️ Land Buyer’s Survival Guide (Free 5-Day Course!)* https://welcome.retipster.com/survival-guide/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=ywkY8Hen_F8 *👉 10X Your Income from Land Investing* https://welcome.retipster.com/webinar-invite/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=ywkY8Hen_F8 *😀 Join the REtipster Forum!* https://forum.retipster.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=ywkY8Hen_F8 *🛠️ All My Favorite Tools and Resources 🛠️* https://retipster.com/resources/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=ywkY8Hen_F8
