From House Hacks to Land Flips: Dylan Rusch’s Strategy for Scalable Real Estate Wealth

Dylan Rusch went from rookie house hacker to full-time land investor in just a few years — and in this episode, he breaks down the exact blueprint he followed to do it.

He started by buying duplexes with just 5% down and converting them into short-term rentals. One unit that used to bring in $500/month? After Dylan’s strategy, it earned over $5,100 in its first month as an Airbnb. Using HELOCs before moving out, he created a rinse-and-repeat system that outperformed traditional rentals and gave him serious momentum.

But the real pivot came when Dylan discovered land investing — a strategy that’s lower maintenance, scalable, and perfect for anyone looking to build wealth without tenants, toilets, or turnover. In this episode, he shares:

• His "House Hack Burster" method that made duplexes cash machines
• Why he transitioned to land for more flexibility and time freedom
• How he uses tools like Land ID and Land Portal to analyze properties
• The power of minor subdivides to boost value without heavy regulation
• How he markets land before he even closes using Facebook and builder networks
• The way he gives private money lenders 10% returns — sometimes in under 3 weeks
• Why a $6K–$10K marketing budget is more than worth it

If you’re looking for passive income, off-market land deals, or want to partner with Dylan, this episode delivers real strategies, not just theory.
