Learn the land business from someone still doing it
Most people teaching real estate stopped doing real estate. I'm underwriting lots, signing construction contracts, and funding builds this week — and what I learn doing it is what I teach.

Education & mentorship
Why learn it from me
I'm in the deals, not just talking about them
Everything I teach came out of a parcel I underwrote, a contract I signed, or a mistake that cost me real money. The curriculum updates because the deals do.
I've sat in every seat
Land strategist, builder, and lender. Most operators know one leg of the stool and guess at the other two — which is exactly where deals die.
You can see the work
Brightview Homes builds it, Springwell Capital finances it, and the brokerage lists it. The businesses are the proof; the teaching is the byproduct.
No guru math
No income claims, no rented Lamborghini, no "students made six figures." You'll get the actual numbers on actual deals, including the ones that didn't work.
The curriculum
Four things that decide whether a deal makes money
Everything I teach lives in one of these. Get all four right and the deal works; miss one and the other three don't save you.
Read the dirt
Zoning, lot of record, septic vs sewer, utilities at the road, wetlands, fill and soils, access and easements. How to tell in fifteen minutes whether a parcel is a deal or a trap — and how to price it the way a builder prices it, backwards from the finished home.
Structure the build
Fixed price vs cost-plus vs GMP and who carries the risk in each. Draw schedules that stay ahead of the spend, change orders in writing, and the five questions that expose a padded bid before you sign it.
Stack the capital
Construction debt, bridge, DSCR, and how draws actually change your interest bill. What lenders are really underwriting, what kills a file, and how to sequence the debt to the exit instead of the other way around.
Plan the exit first
Sell, hold, or refi — decided before you break ground. Appraisal risk, seasoning rules, DSCR at 1.0, and the refi myth that traps twenty percent of your cash in a property you can't get out of.

How it works
Free tier
The weekly letter, the YouTube channel, and the downloadable playbooks. Everything I can teach one-to-many, I give away — it's how you find out whether my thinking is worth paying for.
One deal, torn down
A focused working session on YOUR deal — lot, capital stack, build, and exit — ending in a clear go / no-go and a written plan. Bring the parcel; we run it live.
Done-with-you programs
A cadence rather than a course. We work your pipeline together over months — Build-to-Rent Blueprint for portfolio builders, Land-to-Loan for the full operator cycle.
Agents: trained free
If you join the team at LPT, the new-construction and land training is part of the deal — I'd rather teach you and share the deals than sell you a course.
The programs
Start where you are
Every rung is built from live deals — the same playbooks running inside Brightview and Springwell right now.
Guides, the letter & the channel
Deal breakdowns, the build-math worksheets, and the land playbooks. No email wall on most of it.
- ▸The weekly letter — one real deal, torn down
- ▸Build-on-your-lot and fix-and-flip guides
- ▸The deal-screening checklist
Deal Architect Intensive
One deal, pressure-tested end to end — lot, capital stack, build, and exit — ending in a go / no-go and a written plan.
- ▸Live teardown of your actual parcel
- ▸Capital-stack and exit modeling
- ▸An action plan you can execute this month
Build-to-Rent Blueprint
Done-with-you for investors building dedicated rental product — from lot selection through stabilized, financed rentals.
- ▸BTR site and product selection
- ▸Construction-to-DSCR financing path
- ▸A working cadence, not a video library
Land-to-Loan Operator Program
The full cycle with me alongside you: find the lot, structure the acquisition, finance the build, execute, and exit or hold.
- ▸Find → structure → finance → build → exit
- ▸Direct access to my process, not a course portal
- ▸Brightview and Springwell resources behind you
The programs
Who this is and isn't for
- ✓You have capital (yours or an investor's) and want to deploy it into land or new construction
- ✓You've done a deal or two and keep hitting the same wall
- ✓You're an agent who wants to actually understand what you're selling
- ✓You want the operator's answer, not the influencer's answer
- ✕You want passive income with no work and no capital
- ✕You're looking for a guarantee or a track record of student earnings
- ✕You want someone to do it for you — that's a build contract, not mentorship
Or skip the coaching and hire the machine
Not everybody wants to learn the business — some people just want the outcome. Those doors are open too.
Straight answers
Questions I get
Why teach at all if the deals are working?
Two honest reasons. Teaching forces me to keep my own process written down and defensible, which makes me better at the deals. And the people who care enough to learn this end up being the people I want to do business with — several of my students become clients, partners, or agents on the team.
Will you tell me what my specific deal is worth?
In a deal teardown, yes — that's the whole session. What I won't do is give you personalized investment advice or a guarantee. I'll show you how I'd underwrite it and what I'd do; the decision stays yours.
What does it cost?
The free tier costs nothing and always will. Paid programs are by application because the fit matters more than the fee — apply and we'll talk about scope and price before you commit to anything.
I'd rather just hire you than learn it.
Fair, and often the right call. Sell your land through the brokerage, build through Brightview, borrow through Springwell. The education exists for people who want to run the play themselves.
Educational content only. Nothing on this page is investment, legal, accounting, or tax advice, and nothing here is a promise of results or earnings. Real estate outcomes depend on the market, the capital, and each person's own execution.
