Land development can be one of the most profitable—and risky—strategies in real estate. So how do you actually make money while managing long timelines, rising interest rates, and unpredictable markets?

In this episode of the Real Estate Educators Podcast, Kevin Amolsch sits down with Brandon Cobb to break down how he structures deals to generate cash flow at every stage of development.

Brandon shares his journey from medical device sales to building a $22M/year land development business, why most investors underestimate the importance of cash flow, and how to survive when deals don’t go as planned.

They also dive into AI agents and how they’re transforming real estate businesses—from automating operations to increasing revenue.

If you’re interested in land development, scaling your business, or leveraging AI, this episode is packed with actionable insights.
