Is Raw Land A Good Investment? by ShoProperties(m): 7:05am On Feb 27, 2017
Land is one of the most solid investments available. It will always be worth something, and there's little chance of it being stolen. Raw land is undeveloped property with no buildings or other structures -- it is still in its natural state. If you're thinking about investing in it, the trick isn't so much about buying at a good price, but selling at the right time for a good profit. Investing in raw land is for people who can afford to wait years until someone comes calling for the land. It's not a good idea for people who want to do a quick flip or need to develop an immediate income stream.

Location

Raw land values increase at a faster rate at the center of a growing city or around the perimeter of cities. But, any raw land in an area showing population growth is worth investment consideration because such growth attracts developers. The whole idea of investing in raw land is to chose property that will appreciate in value and attract a buyer who will pay more for it down the road.

Raw Land vs Developed Property

Investing in raw land is less costly than buying developed real estate in the same area simply because there are no improvements on raw land. However, banks are a bit more cautious about fronting money for raw land that is not being used for any income-producing purpose and will usually ask for a higher down payment -- sometimes up to 50 percent of the land purchase. On the other hand, mortgage loans typically require a 20 percent down payment or less. Land loans also have shorter maturities -- 10 to 15 years versus 30 years for mortgage loans. You can also expect to pay higher interest rates for raw land than you would for mortgages.

Pitfalls
Be leery of buying from owners who have held the property for only a short time, especially if the owner is a builder or developer. If they're trying to sell fast, it likely means they have inside knowledge that the land isn't as valuable, or won't be as valuable, as they thought. Raise another red flag on any property priced too low for the market. That can mean the land has fallen outside the path of progress. You also need to visit the land itself, even if it means a road trip. Never invest in raw land based solely on photos in a slick sales brochure. Do a thorough investigation and don't allow a high-pressure salesman to rush you into a decision.

Retirement Planning
Raw land is a long term investment, For that reason, it's a good option for people who are least 10 years away from retirement and want to diversify their assets. It's not an ideal investment for pre-retirees who can't hold the property long enough to reap the benefits of rising values.

Egypt does not possess rich natural resources.
Its agricultural area is relatively small - less than 10 per cent of the total land.
Its growth relies on tourism, Suez Canal tariffs, and foreign investment.
Re: Is Raw Land A Good Investment? by Bbdealer(m): 7:27am On Mar 01, 2017

You DON'T try this especially in an urban or developing area, once you got a raw land, you immediately develop it as in put a structure on it, it might just be an incomplete building then you could say it is an investment, very good investment I must say.

Which one is raw land again?

I guess you mean bare land. On the flip side if bare land is now know as raw land then it's safe to say that land with buildings on it is cooked land right.

Smh!

Do you have any idea of how genuine This raw Land in Ibeju Lekki is? Flourish Royal Garden Estate. Although they are So many of these Estates springing up in that Lekki Free trade zone area....And the way they are advertising.....makes me feel concerned that they may be something fishy in their dealings.


Are those estate developers genuine?
Re: Is Raw Land A Good Investment? by Idrismusty97(m): 8:43am On Mar 01, 2017
Yea if you have patience and don't have the capital to develop the land. I remember my mum selling a land she bought N50k ten years ago for over N1.5m last two years. Although the value of money may have reduced overtime but you can attest that N1.5m to a N50k have a very huge difference. If you are a smart land speculator you could know the trend of a particular area and invest in rural areas that will soon meet a population explode. You have to be smart to study the conditions, for example if the FG just constructed a new road or you have info that a road will be constructed, hurry up to buy land around that road. The accessibility of transportation road increases the value of land. You don't necessary have to developed a piece of land in the middle of nowhere, Must place in Kaduna South were completely isolated bushes but now are becoming booming cities as more and more people flood in, you can buy land in such areas and wait for the value to increase.
