hi my name is Lindsey Taylor and I'm
here today to talk to you about selling
your land
most people have bought and sold cars
usually their dealership or a broker
many people have also bought and sold at
least one home in their lifetime but
what about selling land as scary and
unfamiliar as it may sound for most
selling land can be just as easy with
some knowledge of the process and help
from your realtor you can make a
lucrative profit on your land in this
video we will discuss the three
necessary steps to selling your land I
will tell you when to divide how to
price and how to prep your land for sale
so let's get started number one
determine whether to sell whole or
divided once you have made the decision
to sell your land you must decide how
you would like to move forward with the
sale depending on the size of your land
whether a small lot or a hundred acres
you need to decide if you would like to
sell it whole or in several pieces say
for example you would like to sell 50
acres depending on the area you are in
it may be more lucrative to split up
that 50 acres into 10 acre parcels if
you are in an area that is seeing a lot
of new homes being built you stand to
make more money splitting up the land
however if your land is located in a
more remote area large parcels are can
also be sure to learn about your local
land regulations in many counties there
are regulations in place that require
plotting in addition to a survey number
to establish pricing once you have
decided how you will split up your land
if at all you will need to work with
your realtor on pricing as your Realtor
I can help you by providing a
comparative market analysis or CMA
within this report there will be a list
of similar properties and what they have
sold for in the past as well as what
similar properties are currently listed
for a term we often use in the real
estate industry when pricing a property
is highest and best use essentially what
we're asking is what is the best use of
the property when listing it for sale so
consider what type of area your law or
land is located in is it in the city or
located on a dirt road
are there commercial buildings nearby or
residential homes this information helps
you determine the highest and best use
and is vital to pricing your property
correctly and competitively in today's
market prepare your land now that you've
worked out the details of selling your
land it's time to prepare that land for
sale first item on the list
clear any unwanted brush if you plan to
market your land for building purposes
the more you can clean it up the better
removing brush and mowing the grass can
help boost the appeal immediately there
is however an exception to this if you
plan to market your land for
recreational purposes such as hunting
brush and trees may be a desirable
option you can hire cleanup crew or roll
up your sleeves and do it yourself it
all depends on what type of audience you
plan to attract but either way if it
does need some cleanup be sure to make
it look beautiful
