    Make sure you do this with a attorney. Make the deal with the owner. And then get a attorney to draw up the land contract and research the title. DO NOT DO THIS WITHOUT A ATTORNEY.
    Lots of people are offering rent to own. That is a big trap. They can throw you out and keep your money.

    We recently bought almost 4 acres. I understand the idea of wanting flat land, but we didn't have that option in our price range, and we bought a home on a bluff overlooking the Mississippi. However, we have been very creative and we're using the whole space, even though it's slanted in many areas. We have a sloped drain field for sewage, and we created mowed paths in it and planted wild grasses and wild flowers to attract bees, with a water feature for birds and a bench. We planted/are planting more fruit trees in another sloped area. We have some areas where the bluff was cut into, and so it's a completely vertical dirt wall; we are planting climbing hardy kiwi plants there. We planted 14 grape plants on a slope going up. We planted elderberry, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries (and bonus, lots of wild black raspberries already growing here). We planted a hedge of American hazelnuts. In the flatter areas, we have a large fenced garden, and chicken coop (although they free range). We're adding more garden space this summer up on a flatter spot halfway up the bluff, and even edging the borders of the woods with additional plants. Anyway, all that to say... Yes, flat areas are sure easier to get started on and may have more usable space, but other than the woodsy areas we have that are all trees (where we made fun hiking paths for the kids to enjoy), we're using every bit of the land for both enjoyment and food production, and in time, we'll have an abundance of edibles! ❤️ Plus it adds variety and interest to the space, and we get to enjoy a beautiful view too.

    Even if you had great credit the banks don't loan on raw land, even if you put down 90% cash the banks still won't make the 10% loan. The best way to find properties is by contacting land owners through the county assessors records, write them all, once you get a seller talk to them about carrying the paper (owner carry back). There are many reasons why an owner will want to carry or you can convince them that it will be great for them because of multiple factors. 1. Capital gains, if they get the full cash value they may have to pay big time to the IRS, 2. Taxes, you will now be paying the taxes 3. Maintenance, the owner is done taking care of the place that's now your problem. 4. There going to make money on the carry interest rate plus whatever you put down. 5. You can do the title work yourself by checking the county records because that's all the title company is going to do and they usually do a shitty job lol. 6. Write your own contract and terms, you'll find tons of examples in the net. 6. Don't use a realtor, NEVER! 7. GET TO KNOW THE LAND OWNER, FORM A RELATIONSHIP, THEY MAY LIKE YOU AND Want you to have the property for literally hundreds of thousands of dollars less than they could sell it for or whatever the amount involved. They may not like realtors or the property has issues they don't want to deal with and you assure them that if they sell to you you'll take care of those problems. 8. Don't listen to friends or family even your wife if they tell you it can't be done, it can. I've made millions doing the above formula, now stop screwing around and go for it. Your welcome. Oh yeah pray for guidance which is actually the most important tip I have. AMDG

    "Owner carry" is a dangerous way to purchase property. You don't hold the deed, so if the owner decides to take it back at any time, they can. You have no recourse.
    Also, if the owner loses the property through bankruptcy......again, you have no recourse. It's not your property unless you hold the deed.

When I contracted the realtor about it, I was told that the previous owner of the land has passed and none of his children had ever lived in the state. My realtor told me they just wanted it sold ASAP. I made a low ball offer for cash and it was accepted. It was listed at 7.2 acres, I had it surveyed and it turned out to be 8.5. There's a seasonal creek that runs along the back.

Sounds very possible and positive feedbacks I'm reading from people who have done this (and the positive opinion from a real estate agents comment).

      Property taxes fund many of our essential services. Tax lien deals pay this so that the county gets the money it needs. Most of the time the buyer gets it together to finally pay off the lien, but you will get some nice interest. And Robin DeGrace - you can do this all across the country.

    In Becky's defense, she's talking about people who are living paycheck to paycheck with no additional money to save. She isn't talking about financially destitute people. It isn't that hard to read between the lines of the videos title. Did any of you come here seriously thinking you were going to BUY something with no money? Do people even think anymore, or do they just speak off of emotion all of the time?

      So rather than expecting people to be honest and say what they mean, you expect everyone to 'read between the lines'? *_Can't spell lines without lies._* She was correctly accused of clickbaiting. The title is a lie. It says very clearly *One Way Poor People Can Buy Land With No Money.* I'd ask why you feel the need to defend a blatant liar, but that's the society we live in, I guess.

      Clint R Well, actually no, it's the opposite. The nuances you're describing are fairly complicated. For example, no money does not mean some money; no≠some. You don't need to be a linguistics expert to understand that. The problem is that our society encourages people to speak with extreme generalization.

    I did something similar but with a house. I took advantage of the market crash and bought in 2012. Paid 10k for a livable house in a nice neighborhood close to everything. Today's it's worth 150k but I been buying and selling ever since and my current home is worth nearly a half a million. Best thing I ever did. I used to struggle with rent and had 2 full time jobs now I enjoy my freedom and have no rent or mortgage my home is paid off. I planned it out myself saved 10k took me a year of working hard walking to work and not spending money even on food. Now all I pay is property tax and utilities planing on getting solar panels now. If I need extra money I just rent out a room or driveway. People all around me tried to talk me out of it and called me crazy even my own family. Thank God I did my own thing and trusted myself. Today everyone's asking me how I went from being a dish washer to owning a paid off mansion and living like I'm retired at under 40 so fast. Listen to this woman she's got the right idea. Don't fall into the corporate paycheck to paycheck hell trap that a large majority of Americans are stuck in. You can find cheap houses too in the city and suburbs. The country life is just not for me lmao this works for people who know how to think outside of the sheep heard.

    Becky, I have bought vacant land twice. Both times were financial gold in results. My last purchase I did on 12 acres and negotiated a 10 year 3% loan owner carry. Came with good well and good concrete septic (house burned down)... everything you said is true, I would add a few more things. There is a list of things people need to research before buying vacant land, like>> easements, mineral rights, water rights, building restrictions, property tax rate, agriculture status, drilling well depth/availability to water, I would also recommend visiting the county/city zoning and planning department to learn all about the property before buying. PS I have 77 chickens and love your videos!

      @@KrystalNCMA Depends on where you live- my parents bought great land when we moved to this province, and they dug three wells, none had or held water. The water table was way further down. They had to drill 187 feet down, which was and still is incredibly expensive to do, thousands and thousands of dollars to drill, and the water was not good, full of calcium, really hard lime, needed a waterer softener, etc. My property looks boring with a little trailer and barns, but I have a 100 foot drilled well that has never gone dry, a good septic, fruit trees, mushrooms, greenhouse, and lots of chickens. For that, for the safety of having good water, you could not separate us from our land, not ever. I've filled the pond with a hose and never had that little 2 inch well bore go dry, even for a moment in drought. Priceless. Might be the nicest place in the world, but if you have no water, you have nothing.

Rights Mineral and water rights (ex. you don't want a company drilling for oil on your land and you can do nothing to stop them. the key is having NO SURPRISES after you buy the land.

    I took your advice on finding 'cheaper' land just out-side our county lines; First, I started driving in 20 mile 'grids' each week (joy rides) taking notes on land prices in that area-- and noting how close main roads were to the area, and, I took photos and started making calls on properties we had on the list. Got a feel for what the owners were really wanting and why it was selling.
    2. I looked for land from 2-5 acres. I Google searched and made my list from 'land and farm' sites. I stopped and knocked on farmer's doors and talked to them in fields. You'd be surprised at how much of other ppl business they do know. If farmer John knows Farmer Ken might sell his family old barn land off...he may just advise you call farmer Ken to see if the rumor stands as true! This is how we found out a farmer died, his wife, remarrying, and arguing with an ex-inlaw, over the inherited rights to the land, wanted to sell her part of the inheritance so the arguing would stop. She wasn't farming anymore and just wanted to cash out and run. I don't blame her, but it gave me a good deal!
    Before her family member could give an offer, I got the info and raced to view the land, I found out from the sign in the yard that she had just put it on the market through a farm management company. Only on the market 3 days. I called her realtor and met his son out at the property. He acted like he didn't really have the time of day for us. Not sure why?? But, the next morning, after quickly calling in an inspector to meet us there, we took 3 hours to view the land and discuss our needs and it met all 22 criteria!! We had a go for the land. Location was even 12 minutes closer to our daughter by gaining access to a nearby main roadway!
    I called back her realtor and gave him a full price, cash offer on the 5 acres only and she agreed and signed that night. We had land surveyed for closing a few months later when crops were out of the field (can't survey in a tall corn field). *He was happy to tell his buyer he'd just wrote up the offer and sold the land in under 3 days, and, I was happy because this land was 1/2 or 1/3 price of the land prices in our area

I named it Brambleberry Creek. We are moving there in a few months to start our future! God bless you and keep you happy for a long, long time! Not only did we get 18 acres in the Ozarks, but we got a creek and spring. It's stunning and no building codes since we bought in a township. After a deposit of $2000 with a 10 year Lease to Own Contract it's only $350 a month. But you should know there were much cheaper down payments like $500. Thanks again. You rock!

    I live in the Missouri Ozarks. My property has very hilly to moderately level land. I have to say that hills can be a godsend as gravity is your friend. Not having enough money to drill a well and given that every state around Missouri allows fracking, I was concerned about the contamination of the Midwest aquifer. Eventually, that water would be unfit to use for animals, people, or plants. I opted to catch the rain for my water supply. I catch water on the hill above my cabin which collects into a 2500 gallon cistern. The water gravity feeds down to where I need it without electricity, pumps, or moving parts of any kind. Without my hill and in the event of losing power which we often do (we once lost power due to a storm for 4 days), I would have NO water. My simple system cost about 1/4 of a well, is better water, and no matter what happens I have had it when others did not. So when Becky says buy level land, I would disagree. Hilly land is usually cheaper, makes for better views, and usually comes with a forest. I heat with wood so my water and heating bills are zero. Jes' sayin'. Each situation is different and good luck to everyone in your land search.

      Will it ever go back to clean water & clean air? I doubt that big business will allow that. I live out in the country but that doesn't stop them polluting the air, polluting the rivers & polluting people's brains so they all think Fracking is no big deal.

    Some chickens and rabbits and a big vegetable garden , solar and a well is all I would need

As for looking an animal in the eye before killing them, nobody does that. If you can and you feel good about it, you have more problems than the choice of eating meat or not eating meat.

    OK, I was reading the comments. The title should have said Buy Land When you Don't have much money. Of course it's buying hence money is needed. Down payment, title fees, court fees, deed fees, insurance, money for the well, money for septic tank, money for electric hookup, money for a road to the property or at least a gravel truck or two. So there is money needed. The video shows you how to buy from a person without going through a bank and big mortgage. I have done this before and it works, but yea, you need close to $20,000 for all of the above and to make it ready to put a home on it then you need to build the home or put a trailer or tent.

      A well-thought-out reasonable response! Yes, it is a LOT more expensive than most think and there is no way around that. Even if you didn't account for the things mentioned here (which you definitely SHOULD) there is going to be fencing (and cross fencing) if you want animals, materials to build if there is no building and lots of red tape (and the corresponding fees) to build. If there is already a home on the land, and they are selling for cheap, it probably needs repairs.

At the end of the 5 years she got a divorce and needed to be able to buy a house so we had to come up with 33000 in just one months notice, luckily I had a nice 68 Camaro and was able to sell it to come up with the money in time or it would of been a bad decision with a waste of 5 years worth of payment and a lot of remodeling time and cost

      I moved away from there 7 yrs ago. it was always expensive, but to the point to ridiculous now. I've lived all over the country. Back east, in the south, and in the west. The west is by far my favorite and I've lived in California, Utah, AZ, and Colorado. I lived in SE Denver. Colorado is okay, but it's not all that and a bag of chips like many of the people in the state act like it is. It has some nice areas and some really run down areas just like everywhere else I've lived. I'm more a water sports person and I've been to all the surrounding reservoirs and I wasn't that impressed compared to living in CA and AZ. definitely isn't worth what they are asking for housing.

      @@megostop9650 I hate it here & I'm a native, yes it's expensive & not worth it. I want to leave & really don't know where to go, but I'm so glad that you did this video. The cold weather really hurts my body & it's just too Crowded. I'm in South Denver.

    I know a guy that went with owner financing. He made on time payments for 10yrs or more and then the guy was buying from got foreclosed from his bank. The guy paying the real owner didn't even know the property was in foreclosure till the filing and 6 months of payments due to the bank. Get you a lawyer if you want to go this way and protect yourself.

    Yes. A drilled well is best, or a dug well and a septic tank or septic bed are 2 expensive must haves. If they are in place you are blessed!

    Thanks for the great advice! I looked about 40 mikes away from where I live and was able to find a piece of raw land with water share. He is Financing it for me with a very small down under 3k. I would never have thought to do this but here I am, just divorced and single mom and property owner! Putting a used mobile home on it in a few month. May not be much but it's mine.

      Whoa! Sounds like your X took you to the 'cleaners'. As a 'divorced' mom of two whose dad didn't think he had to pay child support -- and knew that their mother didn't need him -- I did pretty much what Becky suggested. But I did it more than thirty years ago. So, not all women are gold diggers or leeches. Just as all men are not wankers, losers, users, or sad dads. And 'sometimes' a single mom might just be a widow. smh

      I'm not sure why you assume that a divorced female with kids means that she is an unwed mother...
      Not sure where you're getting this from and also where your bitterness is coming from.... something is not right... the resentment you have towards a stranger does not make sense
