The Best Way To Sell Vacant Lots For-Sale-By-Owner | South Jersey ...

Selling City Land, For-Sale-By-Owner, Is It Possible?

Maybe so. Here are some thoughts as a Realtor.

  • Showing is easy. You do not need to meet buyers at the property; they?re going by themselves! It is not like showing a building where you have to pick up the childrens toys and pizza boxes before showing.
  • If there is a lot of new construction happening in the area, builders, purchasers and realtors are all driving around. Make it easy for them to reach you.
  • Some Customers wanting to build will call you; others won?t call. They won?t call because they want help in choosing a a vacant lot , knowing setbacks, knowing costs, and so forth. They require advice; and they get it free thru their Realtor.
  • Builders in the area will have an interest. Some will call you, others will tell their Realtor to have a look at it for them.
  • Realtors are always looking for land for their customers. As a Houston Heights Realtor, I?m frequently hunting for land for builders and customers. If a Realtor calls you, speak with them. It cannot hurt, and may lead to a sale.

Ways to sell the land yourself?Tips from a Realtor.

Consider the following ideas. These are time-intensive, but it?s what a good realtor would do.

  • Ensure the land can be found on the Web. The internet is where most individuals start their search and do their research
  • Call each builder working in the area. Call them numerous times. They?re all ADHD. They need to be to juggle the numerous tasks involved in building a a new home or multiple houses. They tell you they?re going to look at it and then call back. They?re going to forget. Call them again! Email the survey, plat, pricing, whatever you have.
  • Call each Realtor selling new homes in the area. Most likely builders will buy land through their realtor.
  • Call on every construction site in the area. You can get this information through the permit department if you do not want to walk through mud to talk to them. Do they need more land?
  • Do all these things, and then do them again. A builder who just sold his last house is much like an addict. He has to have his next fix; his next project. He?ll be in sad shape without it. One month he may feel too broke to contemplate it. The month after next, he?s actively looking.
  • Talk to builders. What would they build on it? Generate ideas to talk to next guy. Does he know anyone who could have an interest? Does he have a client for a custom home who is searching for a lot?
  • Do not be a Stealth Seller. Get out there and push it!
