Point: Distressed Properties, Counterpoint: Undeveloped Acreage

Become versed in the benefits of investing in undeveloped land for sale versus mortgage foreclosures. Making informed choices will generate the biggest return on investment. Despite the popularity of foreclosure properties, undeveloped acreage may offer greater financial rewards.

Many people have made money through “flipping” distressed properties such as foreclosures. This process can involve a lot of time, work and chaos. Even after you make repairs, you may have a tough time reselling, as some prospective buyers balk at former foreclosed homes.

Contrastingly, undeveloped acreage requires no repairs or maintenance. The return on an investment can be greater, while the headaches are held to a minimum. You can make a profit on your investment simply by waiting for your “location, location, location” to emerge as primo real estate.
