Welcome to Eat, Sleep, Invest. This week Bryan Driscoll sits down with Mark Podolsky. Mark is a real estate investor who buys and sells land. He has made over 6,000 transactions and uses land purchases to make passive income without the headaches of rental properties.
Before Mark entered this market, he was a frustrated and unhappy investment banker. He got advice from a co-worker buying land as a side hustle, and eventually, Mark quit his nine-to-five job to invest full-time. Now he turned deals around in 30 days or less and has the time and financial freedom to live the life he wants and help others do the same. Bryan and Mark discuss:
