Due Diligence for vacant land

[Jessica Muto]

Hello!

I've done some searching for this information on the forums and haven't found it, but if there is a thread or blog answering my question, I'd love to read it!

The question is this: What due diligence must be done before buying a parcel of vacant land? I have some due diligence checklists and I assume many of the items there are the same for land, but are there any items specific to land that would not appear on a checklist for buying a house or multi family? 

I am looking for the best way to find the facts in a timely fashion to make this decision, so if anyone has tried and true strategies or ideas, I am all ears!

Thanks so much in advance,
