The Land.com Network
The Land.com network owns Lands of America, Land and Farm, and LandWatch, the three most visited land listing websites in the country. On each of these sites you can search by state, price, and acreage. You can also search by map, which lets you browse a specific area as you zoom in or out. Results update as you manipulate the map.
Pro tip: Save your search so you get notified when new listings match your criteria.
A note on realtor listings: agents on these sites sometimes make it difficult to see all the property details upfront because they want you to engage through them first. When you buy from a land investor directly, there's no commission, no middleman, and you can talk to the property owner, ask questions, and visit whenever you want.
Realtor.com
Realtor.com lists every property currently on the market with a licensed agent in the US, making it comprehensive even though it's not land-specific. You can search by location, price, and lot size. Their News and Insights section also has useful market trend information for researching specific counties.
LandFlip
LandFlip.com specializes in land for sale, land auctions, land for lease, and FSBO land across the US. Their network includes LotFlip, FarmFlip, RanchFlip, CommercialFlip, and AuctionFlip. Most listings are from professional investors, so listings are typically detailed and transparent. LandFlip has strict posting policies to ensure listing quality. You can search by location, price, and acreage.
Before you buy any land online, make sure you verify who owns the property, check for back taxes or liens, and confirm the zoning. These are the three most important steps in protecting yourself as a buyer.
