How To Buy Land

Clever Investors Avoid Competition By Doing What All The Others Don't Know How To Do... INVEST IN LAND!There are some things you just must know to be successful buying and/or developing land: Some builders search for property strictly by geographic area. Others search for parcels that would enable them to reach particular buyer sub-markets (housing type, price range, lifestyle, age group). They have to pick through dozens of properties before they find one they think they can develop profitably. In either case, their investigation focuses on obtaining answers to five fundamental but critical questions: How to Subdivide Land? For these issues, you would need to consult the municipality's subdivision and land development ordinance. These ordinances are amended periodically spell out: construction and design standards for site improvements. You'll need to understand requirements for curbs, sidewalks and streets. Next are issues like street lighting, grading and landscaping. Why Location is Important... The answer is very simple - location is the only thing about a property that you can't change. Wait a minute, you say. That's not correct because you can move the house. That's true! Maybe you can (although it's often not feasible and it's expensive to do). But even if you can move the house, you won't change the property's location because you can't pick the land up and move it. It's the land that gives the property its location, not the house. The house isn't permanent. Only the land is permanent. For better or worse, you're "stuck" with a property's location. Location determines many things, including the current zoning, the types and values of properties in the vicinity, and the presence of public utilities. If you're thinking about developing a property, these issues can mean the difference between success and failure. What the Land is Worth? Basically, the value of land for residential development is calculated on a per-lot basis, not a per-acre basis. The reason for this is simple. A 10-acre property may produce 5, 6 or 8 lots, but it won't produce 10 lots. Some part of the property will be "wasted" because of physical and other conditions. Consequently, the ultimate value of the land depends on what the parcel will yield. Hey, There's Plenty More... There's a huge opportunity if you know what you're doing and now you can have the knowledge that winner's put you into the land buyers winner's circle. The profit potential is truly stunning!
