DISCLAIMER & DISCLOSURE

Educational Purpose Only

All content, courses, digital downloads, tools, checklists, calculators, community discussions, videos, and written materials provided by Land Specialist Academy are created and delivered for educational and informational purposes only. Nothing published on this Site, within any course, or within the LSC community constitutes:

• Legal advice or a legal opinion
• Financial, investment, or accounting advice
• Engineering, geotechnical, or environmental consulting
• A real estate appraisal or formal property valuation
• A recommendation to buy, sell, or develop any specific property

If you require any of the above, consult a licensed professional — an attorney, CPA, civil engineer, licensed appraiser, or licensed real estate professional in your jurisdiction. 

No Guarantee of Results

Completing any Land Specialist Academy course, earning the CLS™ designation, obtaining LSC membership, or using any LOT LOGIC™ tool does not guarantee:

• Approval of a building permit
• A successful land purchase or sale
• Development viability of any specific parcel
• Any specific level of income, commission, or financial return
• Approval by any government agency, jurisdiction, or regulatory body

Land evaluation involves a complex set of variables including local regulatory conditions, environmental constraints, soil conditions, utility availability, market conditions, title issues, and many other factors that cannot be fully assessed by any checklist or educational framework alone. Individual results will vary significantly based on the property, jurisdiction, and actions taken by the user.

Operating Entity, Broker License, and Credential Disclosure

At the time of authorship of Feasibility First™, Bulletproof Your Build™, and LAND RUSH™, Don Leske held an active Managing Broker license in Washington State and was an active land developer. His license status is subject to change as he transitions from active brokerage to full-time teaching. All course content, books, tools, and frameworks were developed during his active professional career and reflect that experience. Credential status at the time of your purchase may differ from credential status at the time of writing. Land Specialist Academy and Landcor LLC are under no obligation to update published materials to reflect changes in Don Leske’s license status.

Real estate laws, zoning codes, environmental regulations, utility requirements, permit processes, and jurisdictional requirements vary significantly by state, county, city, and municipality. Nothing in any Land Specialist Academy course, tool, or community discussion should be relied upon as reflective of the laws, regulations, or requirements of any jurisdiction outside Washington State. Users outside Washington State are specifically advised to verify all regulatory, legal, and procedural information with qualified professionals licensed in their jurisdiction.

The CLS™ designation awarded by Land Specialist Academy is a professional education credential. It is not a government-issued license, a state-recognized certification, or a credential required by any regulatory body. It does not authorize the holder to perform licensed activities — such as real estate brokerage, engineering, or appraisal — for which a separate government-issued license is required.

Testimonials and Member Results

Any testimonials, case studies, deal examples, or member results shared on this Site, in courses, or in community discussions represent the individual experiences of those members and are not typical results. No representation is made that any user will achieve similar results. Results depend entirely on the individual's skill, effort, market conditions, the specific property evaluated, and numerous other factors outside Land Specialist Academy's control.
