Whenever I meet prospects who want to.buy land, the first thing I ask them is the purpose of the land.

I ask them if they are buying to build or buying to keep.

One of the ways to make money in real estate is to buy and keep, then sell later after it must have appreciated.

It's called land flipping.

land flipping is a type of real estate investment that involves buying land at low price and selling at a.higher.price after some years when it must have appreciated.

To make money with flipping, you need to take these 3 things into consideration.

1.LOCATION

Location is very key when taking a decision to buy land for Investment purpose.

key features to look out for are;

locations in emerging markets where real estate development are fast coming up .

Research has it that locations that are fast developing has higher potential for faster real estate appreciation.

locations where industrialization and commercialization are concentrated.

locations where government attention is focused.

locations close to universities,Airport , train terminus , free trade zones ,seaport and oil refinery.

A good example is the Ibeju Lekki area of.Lagos state

2. PRICE

Watch out for low cost lands or properties

What makes a smart land flipper is the ability to identify potential high viable areas and buy lands while the prices are still relatively low.

You find these when properties are at thier pre launch state or are.being sold on promo .

when a property is just about to be launched, you find real estate development Companies offering few plots of such properties at below market price.

Another period to watch out for are special seasons like Christmas, Ileya, Independence and black friday, you see properties being offered on promo( reduced prices).

3.TITLE

Avoid properties with inconclusive titles like excision in process so that.when you want to flip or sell ,you won't have to deal with title issues.
