Land in South Carolina

Janel Reaves
Posted

I have a family member who is selling their land in a very small town in of South Carolina.  She wants it to stay in the family, so she is selling it for a low price (so no loan is needed). However, I do realize we will have to pay taxes on the land. I'm trying to figure out if it's worth it?? I was thinking we could put a small house or trailer on the land and rent it out. Any thoughts?

Land can be tricky to value.
See if something similar has sold in the area and for what price?
What is the tax value listed as? This can be a starting place but can be way off.
You could get a BPO (Broker Price Opinion) from a realtor.
