13 Questions to Ask When Buying Land

- Buying land and want to know what questions to ask? Then this video is for you!
In this video, I highlight and review 13 very important questions everyone should ask when buying land anywhere in the U.S.
No matter if you're buying land in California, buying land in Colorado, buying land in Texas, buying land in Florida, or any other state.
Buying land is nothing like buying a house and you'll need to understand the important differences between the two or you'll end up making a huge financial mistake.
Helpful Resources:
Environmental hazards search: enviro.epa.gov - also check your state’s environmental website.
Easement search: check your local assessor’s office website to start
Google earth or google maps: use this to get a wide overhead view of the land you’re considering to buy to spot features, characteristics, or issues faster than on foot.
Realtors: Find a local realtor that focuses on buying and selling land. A realtor who mainly focuses on buying and selling houses will likely not be very helpful.

i am getting land for rv people to use //
thank you so much for sharing the summary!
Nicest video on land purchase so far! Really impressed!
Thank you!
Thank you
As a long-time practicing attorney who has had to deal with real property issues, I found your video to be a great starting point for the non-lawyers out there contemplating any real property purchase. It's the exact same advice that I would give as an initial matter.
I love this information.
Thanks Wayne! for the affirmation.
I am currently looking at land and this video was helpful in focusing me on the important issues. Thanks
You might want to research (General Civil Orders of July 4, 2014 & June 10, 2014.)
Lawyers are forbidden to practice law over here at united States Republic of Al Morocco/ THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
All info. No fluff. This is exactly how these kinds of videos should be edited. Thanks so much!
This helps so much when I save money to buy some land thanks

So true. I’m in Japan and although laws are completely different, the same concepts apply.
It’s especially true trying to start an organic farm next to a non-organic farm that sprays pesticides. You’ll never get organic status. Laws may be less strict in the US but still, even in the US I wouldn’t want a house that gets collateral crop dusting.
Thanks for producing this video. These are certainly good questions. As an individual that has researched and purchased land over the last 15 years, I offer a few more questions:
1. Is there a POA (Property Owners Association) related to the land? Much like a HOA (Home Owners Association), the POA will likely have annual dues and restrictions placed on the subject parcels.
2. Are there water rights attached to the land AND / OR can you purchase and append water rights to the land? In Eastern Washington, we have a desert-like climate. Growers require irrigation, either from canals or wells. In the case of canals, the land owner needs to have water rights (measured in acres) in terms of the quantity of water that can be lifted from a canal for irrigation purposes.
3. Has any easement on the land been improved by a neighbor with the intention of claiming Adverse Possession? I emerged from a legal battle with a neighbor that had built into an easement that was beneficial to me and a burden to him.
4. Does the land have geographic features that will be a challenge? Example: low areas may experience seasonal water flow. This could result in the necessity for bridges, culverts and / or a high-clearance vehicle.
5. What are the anticipated future property taxes? Although the taxes may be low now, if there are plans to increase the size of local government (thinking of government schools), the property taxes may rise astronomically. Case in point -- one of my parcels experienced a 40% tax increase in a single year as a means to pay for one additional line item related to government schools.
Great additional questions to have in mind. Thank you for taking the time to add those and give an example.
Excellent information. Your information is more valuable than the one shown in this video. The video has basic information that any property buyer will know eventually, but your information is priceless. The information you shared is usually obtained too late by the buyer.
Amazingly helpful

For resources and links to help you get answers to some of these questions, check out the description section of this video. A good land focused realtor should be able to help you find answers to these questions too, so don't hire just any realtor, get one who focuses on the buying and selling of land.
