Food for thought.

Also doing comps vs other parcels of land to come up with some value number.  

I'm working a dead end job in fast food and just tired of living paycheck to paycheck.

Realtors appreciate free food!

I should be able to get $12,000 to $24,000/parcel for the land as a cash sale or I could owner finance that too.  

My advice would be to contact your local city planning department and have them look at your parcel.

Plus, you could deduct business expenses, like gas, some food, home-office shared bills, formation expense, etc.

I might have even sold you a parcel quite awhile back.....that I lost money on.

While land parcel databases are often able to be viewed free and publicly online, towns and counties can be guarded when it comes to releasing their actual land parcel data files (even if they are public record).  

I am from NYC (downtown Manhattan)I am completely new to the investing arena.I am not planning on investing in my local area but am looking for an area to invest in.My challenges are the following:1- I am looking for a niche with a high return (my goal is to cover my expenses, fund my current business (I'm in the food business) and have passive income for later in life.
