#45 Turning Dirt into Destination Airbnbs with David Graber

In this episode of Legacy Through Land, Tyler sits down with real estate visionary David Graber to explore how he transformed raw land into world-class destination Airbnbs. From Brandywine Grove to Paradise Lake and his most recent addition The Valen and The Bunker. David shares the mindset, creativity, and courage required to build experiences—not just structures. He dives into the challenges of unique construction, the realities of real estate investment, and the role of storytelling and content creation in bringing a project to life. But David’s journey goes far beyond blueprints and business plans. Tyler and David explore his upbringing in the Amish community, the convictions that shaped his character, and the emotional work of finding his identity outside the world he grew up in. David opens up about early real estate wins, the leap into owning a Colorado ranch, navigating the COVID-19 market shift, and ultimately discovering his passion for creating unforgettable short‑term rental experiences. Packed with wisdom, vulnerability, and entrepreneurial fire, this episode reveals what it truly takes to turn dirt into destinations—and purpose into legacy.
