Remember when land buyers pick a target, they have TONS of work to do getting that property from dirt to payday, so they know their purchase choices, and they have a war chest usually stacked up ready to go.

Then you can determine if you made a profit, loss or broke even.Determining your sales price can only be determined by the market. 

I randomly picked three OTC parcels in an Arizona county and did some basic research.

This helps you determine what offer makes sense to you.

Lenders usually determine whether properties are lendable based on the debt service coverage ratio. 

Trial and error help you to determine your list.4.

It kind of feels like the rest of the market - you kind of have to pick a lane between cash flow and appreciation. 

Once this is determined you can select the best neighborhood and asset that fits your capabilities.
