I think it can be over complicated. Do not buy land locked parcels which means there is no road access and you would need to go and get an easement. Just so you know zoning is something that can be changed and many rural areas at least where I am are open to things like that. Theres a lot of researching for you of course in what you are building how you are building etc, but the biggest mistake I see people making is not moving forward. The market is going crazy, the housing market is not the only market with less options, there is also less farmland and also less land going for reasonable prices. If you find something that you want, has good access and can afford it outright or get it at a payment you can afford I reccomend moving forward. Where I live and sell land is some of the cheapest land in the country and I spoke with a realtor and they are listing land at 8 times the price that we are with owner financing. For example if the land is 1000 and acre, which it is close to that down here when you pay cash, this agent said that they are listing .22 acres for 8k without owner financing and it is just a parcel of raw land. The tides are turning and with home ownership out of the question for most people, why wouldn’t you actually go live your dreams out on land. I know people living in their RV’s in the cities and it makes more sense to have a place to own where you can go park before these prices go out of this world. I couldn’t believe what she said and before you think it could be prime real estate, we have parcels listed right by there with access to electricity and did not price it that high. Times are changing friends. Feel free to check out waypoint land sales if you do not believe me about it being affordable. Plus land does not lose value it only gains, so it’s one of the safest places to invest in! Stay prepared and strong for what is to come!
