Because of current building cost, I would never buy a piece of land WITHOUT a structure of some sort on the property already! It’s cheaper to renovate an existing house than to construct a new home from the ground up! Often I found dilapidated properties that were described by the seller as as needing a “gut renovation” that I purchased and got away with a cosmetic renovation! Why does this happen? Because sellers know very little about the absolute minimum to bring a property up to code. The best deal I’ve made so far was buying a 1/2 acre of land that was zone for RV’s, dropped 7 RV’s, payed for 3 light-posts to bring power in (each post was 6k) water line was already on the demarcation of the property so I had a plumber branch it outI Purchased 7 used RV’s...applied for a mobile-home license!! The whole project with the land was 49K, sold the whole thing for 93K in less than 6 months! Robert from daytradingwiththelight
exactly, plus with gas prices the way they are right now the price of just hopping in your car and driving to the more rural areas will break the bank.
Oops, I see that this video WILL address my question (above). I read thru all the comments before I watch the video entirely bec I learn so much from commenters as well
I am sooooo grateful for you taking time to create this video. I have a long way to go as to not knowing nothing about buying land but I am determined to buy my first piece of land. I want to have something to pass down to my children and most importantly "off grid and out of the matrix" I hope to talk to you. Blessings and Love 🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾
Easements are pretty common in rural areas. I dont think it's a deal killer but you are absolutely right about it forcing you to deal with another individual who may make themselves a pain to you if they desire to do so.
Yep, they are common but i just prefer to not have to deal with others. If I was buying land to homestead in or build a traditional home I would be more open to it, but i wouldn't want to have my glamping guests to have to cut through someone else's land to get to mine.
@@KeepItTiny the more I thought about this, the more I remembered how many lost air bnb guests of mine have ended up asking neighbors. Probably less than one percent but still. I know they find it annoying but they accommodate my financial affair, thankfully.
Hello I'm really interested in buying a pace of land to start a glamping business. The land buying part is all new to me..... Thanks for the transparency.
Hey! Thank you you’ve been so helpful! Could you do a video about how to access certain information? Like best places to find land online, history, easements, ect?
Damn, your third plot of land? thats so cool, it was hard enough for me to find and secure my first. One day, after my land is fully built out I will start looking for my second.
I would think flood prone areas would be well suited to glamping. Usually they are next to wild areas and rivers/lakes. Glamping situations are generally going to be more likely in warmer months when flood risk may be less. Glamping structures can more easily be raised on a platform. And most importantly, the cost would be much cheaper for the land.
You've got a high tolerance for risk lol. Mine is super low. I hear flood zone, i run for the hills! Everything you said is true though. The land would be cheaper, and the the structures could be raised. I just worry too much and know it would be too scary for me.
@@KeepItTiny there are many "recreational" properties here that are not zoned for living on but can be camped at for up to 6 months a year. They are usually 10%- 20% of the cost of a buildable lot. Usually right on the river. People just come for the vacations ect... Might be a lower cost of entry for those who can't afford the higher cost of buildable land. In many ways, marginal land like this fits the bill for a low budget glamping side hustle.
Great video the only thing I would be aware of regarding using the listing agent to write a contract for you is you will have zero representation which means no buffer of liability from the your agents broker. Listing agents only represent the seller. Also your not saving any money because the seller at least in my area pays out the commissions. Therefore you would be forfeiting your agent’s commission to the sellers agent while having no representation.
I'm falling in love with your excellence, presentation style and meticulousness... at least in a TINY way. I will be signing up soon. Proud of your work!!! We appreciate the sharing.. Continued blessings and success!!🥰🥰🙏🙏👍👍
GrowThink has a business plan for sale for RV parks. Cannot vouch for it bec I’ve not researched it yet. It’s in my que to research. But it’s there for others. I’m interested in camp grounds but maybe RVs will be allowed too, idk. Still trying to understand what I want to do and what’s possible at land prices near-ish me bec I think my first one I should be able to go see the land and interact with clients so I learn faster.
As a licensed broker in Louisiana... here commision is paid from Seller's profit at close of escrow and surveys are typically paid for by Buyer as part of their due dilligence during inspection period.
I disagree buyer should get their own survey done and not accept any other survey... that way there can be NO DISPUTING a survey of the SELLER after buying the land.
im loving this info, thank you! im gearing up to get land for a home...im in the research stage... im thinking of going manufactured home tho, any advice on that would be cool..advice from the comment section also welcome...some of you may have already went this route and have some tips also.
Hey I will do research and maybe do a video on manufactured homes but my biggest piece of advice is to put the company first. Buy from the best company, not for the best home you think you want. A lot of manufactured home companies pop up, make a ton of claims, then when they deliver the home it’s not all it’s cracked up to be.
@@KeepItTiny Happy new year! thank you for your response and your advice is appreciated, I plan to do as much due diligence as I can to get the best deal and home....I have a home in mind so I will be investigating the building materials and process as best I can
Some manufacturered homes can be better built bec they are assembled in a factory with controlled weather. But be careful with glues in woods and joinery and plastics and stuff bec you can get really rotten indoor air pollution that damages your health.
LOL, yep, you need boots!!! When I was deep into my search i just kept the boots in my trunk and would pop them on right before checking out the land and trying to walk as much of it as I could. Then I would just leave them in my trunk for next time. This way I didnt have to get dressed or "ready" to see land and could go right after work or at a moments notice
In my experience LandWatch is pretty good for looking for raw land. Audree, if you ever need help looking at land deals or funding your project(s), I’d be more than happy to have a conversation.
Do you mind telling me where in upstate you got your land ? I’m in north jersey not far from the city and have been thinking about Catskills NY as well as poconos in PA
Trust your own research. Buyer beware stands when purchasing land. When buying land as is means the buyer has to check all these details about the parcel of land to satisfy themselves not the seller.
You can not buy land / inheritance. The word MORTGAGE is clear as to what it says; MORT = Dead , GAGE = Pledge. Dead Pledge is Mortgage, and that’s why you give those Unconstitutional FRN’s FEDERAL RESERVE NOTES and try to call it a dollar. Silly you, you might want to look up the word DOLLAR.
Put your money where’s your mouth is tough guy, lets shoot an interview where you educate me and my audience 😁 (my email should be in the video description near the bottom - looking forward to our chat )

Your attention to detail is on point, there's a lot here that you're pointing out that I missed in my search for land. Thanks for the great video!
Glad it was helpful!
love the free info your page gives out
I'm happy to help
You're so right, even going to look at land gets costly after a while.
exactly, plus with gas prices the way they are right now the price of just hopping in your car and driving to the more rural areas will break the bank.
Could you do a video on how to identify a real estate agent who truly knows raw land sales? Is there such a thing?
Oops, I see that this video WILL address my question (above). I read thru all the comments before I watch the video entirely bec I learn so much from commenters as well
Thanks for posting. I don't know why I hadn't already thought about flooding. Ohe and the FEMA map is really helpful.
hey I'm happy you liked the video - be sure to check the fema map for EVERY piece of land you're thinking about buying.
First Street Foundationalso has an equation/map system called Flood Factor that’s useful for at least houses. I’ve not tried it w raw land yet.
Can you make a video on utilities? I feel lost on septic etc!

Welcome aboard! I got a ton of content on buying land that will def help you out.
As a licensed broker in Louisiana... here commision is paid from Seller's profit at close of escrow and surveys are typically paid for by Buyer as part of their due dilligence during inspection period.
One cool, maybe its a regional thing.
@KeepItTiny Could be. Louisiana known for doing things differently :)
Thanks for a great video! I learned so much about the ins & outs of buying land. Especially, about agents!
I disagree buyer should get their own survey done and not accept any other survey... that way there can be NO DISPUTING a survey of the SELLER after buying the land.

@@jessicadentalaid4728 Yes I agree and thank you!
Seems like alot of good information in this video
What if you are looking to put a home on about 1 acre lot? Should you purchase the land separately?
Thanks for this info. It's my damn dream to find a husband and build a tiny home on a piece of land.
Thats an amazing goal! I'm sure it will happen for you. Thanks for watching the video and i'm glad you found the info helpful.
@@KeepItTiny - Thanks, lovely!!
I disagree with the land survey part you always want to survey the land yourself so you can accurately identify your property from neighbors !!
A different video you had said you wore waiders...i didn't. The land was a little hilly i visited. I need boots!
LOL, yep, you need boots!!! When I was deep into my search i just kept the boots in my trunk and would pop them on right before checking out the land and trying to walk as much of it as I could. Then I would just leave them in my trunk for next time. This way I didnt have to get dressed or "ready" to see land and could go right after work or at a moments notice
What are the best sites to look for raw land?
In my experience LandWatch is pretty good for looking for raw land. Audree, if you ever need help looking at land deals or funding your project(s), I’d be more than happy to have a conversation.
Thanks!❤
Would love to know what kind of microphone you use. Do you have a link?
Do you mind telling me where in upstate you got your land ? I’m in north jersey not far from the city and have been thinking about Catskills NY as well as poconos in PA
Land house combo loan is possible too.
How about soil test ordered for septic?
Absolutely worth it! I left that out of this video but I think doing your due diligence would be helpful.
Trust your own research. Buyer beware stands when purchasing land. When buying land as is means the buyer has to check all these details about the parcel of land to satisfy themselves not the seller.
2:17 What sites do y'all like/recommend?
How i could find cheap land like canadian citizen?
So you didn’t have your own realtor to visit land?
I need help. Some one on one. Please. I’m in Arkansas
The only mistake you made is you stayed in New York
I'm never leaving! Don't listen to the media, New York is beautiful and a great place to live.

It's obvious that you have no clue how agency works or who pays for the survey. Bought one property, and now you're an expert.
