LAND

Land does not produce income until some use is found for it.  The sooner it is put to it’s “highest and best use”, the faster the value of the land will appreciate.  A wise investor generally has a plan as to how the land will be used, before he buys.  If it will take several years to develop these ideas, he will “land bank” the property, by leasing it to a farmer, or by farming it himself.  Anyone who bought farm land in the path of progress 30 years ago has rich children now.  Any property that is on a main traffic corridor between two towns will generally be a safe bet. 

Property that is already zoned for the higher use can be sold or leased for a very high price.  It is difficult to find raw industrial or retail land around South Florida for less than $800,000 per acre – a 5-acre lot on US1 at SW 130^th Street is under contract for $25,000.000!

If you want to buy land, and have the “staying power” or the clout to improved zoning, we will be glad to help.  Even new investors can generally obtain first mortgage loans of up to 50% of the appraised value of the land.  We would refer an investor to reliable financial and legal professionals, and help you find exactly the right property as well.  Please click the “Purchase” page, and/or contact us:
