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.

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...

Obtaining a real estate license as a hobby?

Hello, I am 24 years old - 2 years out of college and I have my main job. I was looking to get a real estate license (in California if location matters) as a hobby/for fun since I like real estate ever since I was in high school. In the past 2 years, I would go to open house in the weekends to look at homes for fun. I don’t plan to practice real estate full time as I have my main job but I am curious are there any benefits to this? In the future, I plan to own multiple properties and have rentals, so I was wondering if getting a real estate license can help me with it?

Advice? Moved out of my primary residence and now renting

I moved out of the house I own in August 2021, I lived there for 8 years, I have been renting an apartment the past 3 years and renting out my house. My current tenant is moving out in September. I seem to have just missed the living 2 years out of 5 years rule for being exempt from capital gains tax and my house being a primary home. Any advice on what the best thing to do would be moving forward? Continue to rent out my house? I'm happy with my rental, but wouldn't mind buying another property down the road. I could sell my house down the road and try to do a 1031 exchange? Moving back in my house isn't ideal because it's an hour away from where I currently live. I could take a HELOC perhaps and try to buy another property and continue renting for the long term? I do have a 2.4% mortgage rate on the house so I don't mind keeping it for a while. Thanks for everyone's advice. submitted by /u/Ok-Top-7859 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.co...
