Let’s Talk Land Investing: Strategies, Experiences, and Long-Term Plays

[Sadie Curlee]

Hey BP Community,

I’m curious to hear from investors who are buying and holding land in DFW. What’s your approach, and how’s it been working for you? Are you focusing on raw land, infill lots, or something more niche like agricultural or recreational plots?

Personally, I’ve been exploring opportunities where growth patterns and infrastructure expansion hint at future value increases. It’s fascinating how land can offer such diverse strategies—from flipping parcels quickly to holding for years and letting appreciation do the work.

• How do you assess a piece of land’s long-term potential?
• What are some creative ways you’ve monetized land while holding (e.g., leases, easements, or partnerships)?
• What are some lessons you’ve learned—good or bad—from your land investments?
• Also, if you’ve found certain markets more promising than others, what’s been driving your decisions?
