Land vs. Residential: Where Are the Hot Leads?

Land vs. Residential: Where Are the Hot Leads?

If you're reaching out to distressed property owners, I've noticed something interesting—land often generates more hot leads than residential properties. Why?

People tend to be less emotionally attached to vacant land compared to their homes. Selling land is often viewed as a purely financial decision, whereas selling a house can bring up memories, family ties, and other emotional barriers.

In my experience, land deals tend to move faster because of this. Less emotion, more action. But hey, that's just what I've observed!

What about you? Have you seen the same trend, or do you think residential properties are still the better route?

Let me know your thoughts—prove me wrong!

    I agree in some sense. Some land deals can take over a year to close based on due diligence, testing, zoning etc. 

    It's not really which one is better it's more like what's working better for you. Some swear by land, some don't even want to touch it and stick with existing residential.  

    Most of us just do both. 

    I WILL SAY there has been a huge uptick in Gurus selling land courses and land software lately...

    Solid points @Stephen Morales

    It's a great reminder that the "better" strategy often depends on individual goals and market conditions.

    Would love to connect!
