Raw land can be a tough sell.

I've also read that this number could be around 1.25% per month with a total annual return of around 16%. 3) True or false... all properties have a 6 month redeemable period before the foreclosure process can commence unless the house is abandoned/vacant raw land... then the investor can immediately start the foreclosure process. 

@Marian Smith I just finished renovations on my current house and my wife would like to enjoy the fruits of my labor for a few years before we sell. 

I assume your lot was raw that never had a house on before your new construction, right?

I have been reading, studying and investing in real estate and it looks like the predominant focus of my investing has to do with structures of some kind, house, commercial, etc, I am also getting more interested in land purchase and sales, whether improved or unimproved.My first question to the group is are there strategies and financial success stories of folks just making a living on selling raw land without a structure; if so, what; if not, why.My second question is what would be the added value for land that had a septic system, pad and electric at the site or if the house was a total loss, has anyone developed any strategies on making money on this or is this something to "stay away from".

He gave me his contact info and we started working on our first deal. after speaking with him a few times he started giving me info about what kind of property the thought we should be looking for. he wanted to find some raw land and sub-divide the lots into a community and sell the lots out one by one.

Hi there all,It will never cease to amaze me the raw intelligent  you all have. 

Get the raw data and you do not need fancy "evaluation tools"!

I have read about raw land investing, tax liens, mobile homes, becoming a very small-scale private lender, notes, etc.

Good Afternoon everyone,Alright so here is what is going on: I have a potential seller looking to sell me a piece of raw land that is .78 acres large.
