See why it scored the way it did
The Land Report explains the score, section by section: water, soil and room to grow inside the property lines, flood and safety, drive times, value, and what to ask before you buy. It's written for your family's plans. See a sample report: the same land, written for two different families, with two different answers.

Why is so much of this free?
When you're ready, we introduce you to one local Homestead Land Specialist: a real estate agent who knows country land. Once our founder is licensed, if you buy through them, their brokerage may pay us a referral fee at closing. It comes out of the brokerage's side of the sale, so it costs you nothing extra, and you're never required to use them. We'll always tell you. Scores never change because of who represents you or who your lender is. [EXPERT REVIEW: referral-fee rules vary by state.]
Not sure about land loans? Land usually needs a bigger down payment than a house, and lenders who know rural land (Farm Credit associations, USDA programs, local banks and credit unions) are a good place to start. Verify terms with your lender. A planning and research service, not legal, lending or real estate advice.
