Land Before the Boom
Buying Where the Freeways, Rail & Airports Are Headed.
Every boom has a map. Before the freeway interchange opens, before the rail line and the airport expansion are announced, someone already owns the dirt. This month we’re learning how to read that map from someone who has been buying ahead of the growth for three decades.
TONIGHT’S GUEST SPEAKER
Jet Sison — President & Broker, Capital Holdings, Inc.
Jet is one of the largest private landowners in California’s High Desert (San Bernardino County). She has spent three decades buying land where the freeways, rail and airports are headed, and city officials come to her to assemble projects for major corporations. She’s a passionate collaborator who can be your bank for parcels. An investor, developer and teacher, she’s passionate about the value of land and the role thoughtful development plays in growing communities. Author of Owning Land Made Easy and Sold on Sales, and 2025 Business Woman of the Year.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN
• How to spot the path of growth before the infrastructure lands
• What makes a parcel worth holding — and what makes it a trap
• How seller financing can make land work when the bank won’t
• How to position yourself for the corporate and municipal projects that follow
