Some investors buy undeveloped land with the intention of either holding it for long term gain, or with the idea of improving the land and selling it at a profit. Many people buy land with the believe that someday, on this land, they will build their very own retirement dream home. Others are looking for recreational land for the family to use in the years to come for their private enjoyment.
Unfortunately, there are many pitfalls to buying land.
One of the biggest pitfalls to buying land is life itself. Divorce, a death in the family, enheritance, or even just a change in circumstance can derail all the reasons for purchasing the land in the first place. All that is left is a pile of dirt with your name on it. Your only reminder of ownership is the tax bill that is received and has to be paid each year.
Another pitfall is buying on emotion. The countryside is filled with landowners that purchased their land on emotion. Many of these landowners have owned their property for many years without ever once setting foot on the land. For most, life got in the way and their priorities shifted. For many, even with the passing of time their land has appreciated very little in value. The neighboring landowners in simular situations did little if anything to develop the area and improve anyone’s land value.
Many landowners are holding on to properties for no good reason. They’re spending thousands every year paying taxes, HOA fees and maintenance costs on a piece of dirt that isn’t doing anything for them. We’ve worked with tons of happy clients, and we want to work with you too!
Do any of these situations sound familiar?
- Do you own off the grid land in the middle of nowhere that you can’t sell?
- You are holding on to a piece of land, with no concrete plans for development?
- Tired of paying taxes year after year?
- Do you own raw land, that needs to be leveled or cleared?
- Have you tried working with an agency, just to have your property sit on the market for months at a time?
- Have you inherited a piece of property you aren’t interested in keeping?
- Do you want a simple and fast process, without expensive fees and commissions?
