Buying Land in Today's Market! Justin Hollandsworth Bought His First 70 Acre Farm in OHIO - Here's How!

Are you feeling discouraged with today's land markets? With the drastic rise in prices, competition, and limited inventory, it's easy to lose sight of your end goal. Listen as Justin Hollandsworth shares land buying experience from start to finish. In this episode, we discuss saving for land, using your 401k to buy land, what makes a good parcel hunting, how to write an offer like a pro, and much more. Justin is the Co-Producer/Staff Coordinator at Whitetail Addictions, an Affiliate Coordinator at Lone Wolf Custom Gear, and the Vice President of Operations at Acoustic Ceiling & Partition. He has been a Whitetail Addict from Ohio since his grandfather introduced him to the sport at seven years old.  Justin always had a deep passion for shooting a Pope & Young class whitetail one day as a teenager. Getting frustrated with the sport, his interest swayed towards other hobbies in his early twenties. He sensed something was missing in his life, and he eventually found his way back into hunting.
