A good idea is to look at population growth and aim to invest in states that are projected to grow rapidly in the future.

However, take into consideration that if, for example, the population in a small town is 100, and than it grows by 25 people, that will give you a huge boost in population percentage but might not be your best choice due to the low amount of population.

I would agree that online advertising is the best way to get global.

Ebay, ********** and Loopnet are all good websites to list. Also, I'll mention
a free land listing website, Discount Land For Sale.com

The more listing you make on various websites, the higher the chance of you selling your land. Exposure is the key!

We do most of our transcations by escrow and with full title procedure.

We believe this is the safest method outside of using a lawyer, which costs alot of $$$

Alot of things determine land value.

Location is among the top. Where the land is near, if there is construction in the surrounding area, big city or rural, etc.

It's always good to invest in land on the outskirts of big, growing cities, as the land value is lower than in the city but sooner than later the city will grow to encompass that land.

If a person owns a couple lots, and there are sufficient enough trees, is it possible to get a company to clear the lot for free in exchange for the timber?

What would be the best if the company sells only land?

Hello Bigger Pockets Members!

Nice to be part of such a comprehensive real estate forum.

I hope I can contribute!

What would you guys recommend in getting more members and sellers to sign up for a land only website?
