Where would be the cheapest place in the US to buy a huge amount of undeveloped land?

I am an avid mountain biker, and one of my more far-fetched dreams is to open a full on giant mountain bike resort. These types of places already exist, it's not a new concept. I would just open up a new one with a bunch of fun trails, my own personal touches, and maybe allow vendors to set up shops and sell the latest gadgets.

Now, I understand there are prime real-estate spots, etc. but lets say I wasn't worried about that and just wanted a crap ton of undeveloped land for as cheap as possible, anywhere in the US, something like 5-10 square miles of undeveloped land. How much would it cost? Where (location wise) would be the cheapest place to buy it?

Realistically that would be too much for me to buy myself of course so I would have to find investors. Investors would say "location location location. You need things such as places to eat, sleep, other activities such as kayaking for the kids, etc. so you would also have to open hotels, restaurants, this isn't roller-coaster tycoon you know."

I understand there is a million complexities involved with opening something like that, I just am curious how much the cheapest big ass plot of land would cost.

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...

Question With Tricon "Pending ID".....

My wife and i, along with 2 other peopl applied to rent a house, and our application says "Approved, Pending ID". Anyone else know what that means? Do we pretty much have the place or are we missing something? submitted by /u/Itskrueger [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1orixqj/question_with_tricon_pending_id/

Aren't comps/CMAs useless with buyer credits at close happening now?

I'm looking into buying a new construction townhouse in my HCOL US city. I'm seeing builders offering interest rate buydowns worth $20k-$60k on $800k homes (rather than just lowering prices) in order to keep their comps high for their other units, now that buyer demand has been declining. I asked my agent about these, and he said these buydowns aren't even the full story: buyers can write all kinds of other credits into an offer, like their closing costs, prepaid sewer fees, etc. Apparently cash buyers can just write in a "buyer credit at close" for any amount in their offer. So a new townhouse that appeared to sell for $800k in the MLS might have actually been a cash offer with a $100k+ buyer credit at close, meaning the buyer only spent $700k or less in total, but to the rest of the world they can only see the $800k! So that made me realize I can't trust comps/CMAs for other new construction townhouses. The sales prices could be way lower than they appear...
