Want your own little slice of heaven out in the country, away from the crowds and demands of everyday life? Here’s what you need to do to buy a perfect piece of land!

1. Decide what you want. Do you want something that’s a world away from the city, that’s as wild as wilderness can be? Or are you looking for something that you can eventually build on? Get clear on what you want from a piece of land now because it will change what you look for.

2. Get your finances in line. Financing a land purchase isn’t quite as simple as a home. It’s easiest to have cash to buy land since it can be difficult to get a loan, especially if you want to buy a lot that’s completely undeveloped. But with good credit, a large down payment, and a clear plan for the land, you can get financing.

3. Find an agent. As a buyer, you can work with an agent that can help you navigate through the different options!

4. Understand utilities and roads. Your agent will help explain this, but some lots will come with utilities available and already piped in. In other lots, you’ll need to figure out water, sewer, electricity, and internet. And if you’re looking somewhere really rural, you might have to build out a road too. That can get pricey fast, so you’ll have to build any excavation and building into your budget.

5. Choose a property and submit an offer. Once you find a property you want, you’ll work with your agent to submit an offer. With a little luck, you’ll soon be the owner of your very own country's haven.

- Appraisal

A real estate appraisal exists to establish a property's market value -- or the likely price it would bring if offered in a competitive open market. Mortgage lenders require appraisals to provide the lender with assurance that the property can sell for at least the amount of money that it is lending. It's easy to confuse an appraisal with a comparative market analysis, which tells us how your home stacks up to others in your area; or even a home inspection, which assesses the physical condition of the home.
