How I Find Hot Vacant Land Markets in Minutes (Step-by-Step) » 1453

About this episode

Joe McCall shares his step-by-step process for identifying hot vacant land markets using various tools and data analysis.

Success leaves clues. When I’m looking for vacant land markets, I don’t try to guess where the next hot area will be. I follow the money and look for where people are already buying land. I start broad and quickly narrow things down from the country to the state, county, and eventually the specific zip codes where deals are happening. Using tools like LandWatch, Redfin, Zillow, ChatGPT, and the Land Portal, I can see where properties are selling, what acreage buyers want, and what they’re willing to pay. Think of it like fishing with a depth finder. I don’t want to throw my line into empty water and hope something bites. I want to see where the fish already are. Once I find those pockets of demand, I can build a targeted seller list, make intelligent offers, and focus my marketing where I have a much better chance of doing deals. What’s Inside:  —How I narrow my search from states to counties to hot zip codes —Using recent sales activity to see where buyers are spending money —How I use AI to quickly analyze land sales and pricing data —Why targeted seller lists beat spray-and-pray marketing
