Charlotte Land For Sale

Many buyers are seeking Charlotte Real Estate with several acres. Yes, as Charlotte continues to grow this becomes more and more of a commodity. many people do have trouble understanding the value of land. Yes, it is confusing but if your are seeking such real estate then you really need to understand the market value of Charlotte property.

Let's say that you have 5 acres of land in Charlotte. This could be one home. Let's assume it will be in an area with million dollar homes (such as Myers Park or Ballantyne).  The value of a lot would be closer to $1,000,000 with an older home with a value of $200,000.  The seller is not going to "sell" the property based on the value of the home.  You will be paying the premium for the land. 

Typically, the value of the land (when properly utilized) is 20% of the total value of the expected/typical home in the immediate area/neighborhood.

A single lot in South Charlotte sells for about $200,00.  That could be for a lot as small as .5 acres!  If that 10 acre parcel could support 20 homes than the lot would be valued at 2,000,000! Now if you owned 10 acres of land with a small farm house, would you sell it for $200,000 or $2,000,000?  Keep in mind that $200,000 a lot is typically for after the land is developed and ready to build.  You can not expect the buyer to pay developed lot priced for raw land but the value is there.

Now keep in mind that Charlotte Real Estate property value is based upon "current" market value of the land. What would a willingf seller be will to accept ad a willng buyer be willing to pay for the property?  Prices for Charlotte Land for Sale vary dramatically; the actual sales price is based on many factors.  I can help sort through the complexity of varying land values in the greater Charlotte Real Estate market.

Charlotte Foreclosures

As the Charlotte Real Estate market continues to evolve the builders are evolving with it. The sub prime neighborhoods are going through a rough transition at the moment but there will definitely be opportunity here in the not so long term. Since the builders were "stuck" in many of these sub prime neighborhoods they stopped building. Basically the supply outpaced the demand (nor sub prime lenders). Charlotte New Home Builders stopped building and now the neighborhoods are transitioning. The investors lost a mint. This occurred because investors accelerated the problem. They purchased new homes in these neighborhoods and added renters into the new neighborhoods. Many renters do not care and destroy the homes and the neighborhoods follow.

As they investors leave along with the sub-prime borrowers, a new and more stable Charlotte neighborhood is taking root. Charlotte Foreclosures spell opportuinty!  Who would have guessed the lack of mortgage availability would improve our real estate market but it really is. Home ownership is still available to anyone but you now actually must be responsible and pay your bills.

The demand for Charlotte homes is still very strong and the best deals sell quickly. Visit my Charlotte Real Estate website today and begin learning about our great city.
