A First-Time Land Buyer's Guide
The mistakes new land buyers make most often, and how to avoid them.
Land isn't priced or evaluated like a house
There's no standardized comp tool for land the way there is for homes. Expect to do more of your own legwork, using county GIS maps, zoning offices, and local agents who specialize in land, to sanity-check a price.
Common first-time mistakes
Skipping a survey, assuming utilities are available because a neighboring lot has them, and not confirming legal access are the three most common issues that surface after closing rather than before.
