What If You Could Own Land for Less Than a Car Payment?
You've looked at stocks. You've researched rental properties and REITs. But there's an entire category of real estate investing that's been invisible to most people — land through tax sales and auctions.
Dawn bought her first parcel for $100. After fees, her total out-of-pocket was around $500. She still owns it today.
That's not a typo. That's the opportunity.

Meet Dawn Brown Garrett
Dawn Garrett is a DMV-based real estate advisor with 25+ years of experience helping buyers and sellers use property as a wealth-building tool. In 2020, during the pandemic, she discovered land investing through tax auctions and online platforms — and used her real estate expertise to build a portfolio of parcels purchased for as little as $100.
She still owns that land today and continues to buy parcel by parcel. This ebook is the guide she wished she'd had when she started — and her approach blends education, strategy, and real-world experience to help everyday people make smart moves.
