Best ways to find vacant lots to build on

[Casey Gray]

I'm trying to get my feet wet in REI by helping my mentor in anyway I can. He is looking for some vacant lots to build on as he exits flipping and enters into development. He has tasked me with finding vacant lots however possible. I figured what better place to ask than the BP community.

So my question is what are some of the best ways to find vacant lots below market cost? MLS, Craigslist, driving around, or auctions? Thank you for your input.

You named some,,, driving and researching vacant land against property records, out of area owners, direct mail efforts and delinquent property taxes are a big producer for me.....

And of course, checking for utility availability and existence is key factor! Happy Hunting!!
