Buyer-first land wholesaling for home builders

Chris Koerner on The Koerner Office Podcast — The Most Profitable Side Hustle to Start With No Money

Find home builders with a defined buy box, locate matching off-market landowners, negotiate a price below the builder's target price, and assign the contract to the builder without usually purchasing the land. The profit is the difference between the seller's contract price and the builder's purchase price.

Problem: Builders need suitable land in specific locations, sizes, and price ranges, while landowners may want a quick sale without brokerage fees and a long listing period. The wholesaler connects the two sides and coordinates the transaction.

For: Small and regional home builders, including builders producing move-in-ready homes on scattered lots, as well as selected land investors and brokers.

Examples

Four Jacksonville, Florida lots were contracted for $37,000 after the sellers had reportedly paid about $800 per lot; the lots were later sold for more than $180,000, with approximately $140,000 in profit claimed.

Chris Koerner on The Koerner Office Podcast — $532K in One Month Selling Land They Didn't Own

Act as a middleman in land transactions by locating land opportunities, securing a contract with the seller, and connecting the property with a buyer or builder for a profit.

Problem: Creates a transaction between land sellers and land buyers without requiring the wholesaler to visit the property or own the land.

For: Landowners who want to sell lots and builders or other buyers looking to acquire land.

Examples

A first-time operator acquired a property for $1 million, found a builder willing to pay $1.11 million, and received a $110,000 wire 30 days later.
