  Landwatch.com has always been the popular spot to find the type of land you're looking for. Source: about 3 years ago

  Probably depends on location. I did a comparison for two different counties in WV, one county Zillow shows more listings, landwatch.com 2nd while the other county Landwatch.com more listings. land.com and landandfarm.com fewer listings. Source: about 3 years ago

• Moving to WV soon! Asking local folk to please share your mountain genius (north-central WV)

  Thank you so much for the tips about the grade. I also didn't know about landwatch.com so that's an amazing resource. You win three juicy pieces of watermelon and some honeycombs because that's what I have beside me. :) All yours. Source: over 3 years ago

• Moving to WV soon! Asking local folk to please share your mountain genius (north-central WV)

  One caveat about looking for land to build on: Be aware of the grade. There's lots of times when I look at a property for sale on landwatch.com and think, 'wow, great price!' but then realize it's on a near vertical ridgeline or something with no road access, etc. Source: over 3 years ago

• How much would a regular land lot cost around Silicon Valley versus New Jersey near New York City?

  Is that the best website for finding land lots or average price of regular land lots in an area? Someone here also mentioned landwatch.com. Thank you. Source: over 3 years ago

• How to find nice scenic land and what features to look for, using only online tools?

  Found it on landwatch.com great site and I still use it to watch properties in the area. You can't set up alerts but you can bookmark a search and return to it without joining the site. I just always had a tab open in my phone. It beats doomscrolling. Even once you narrow down your search online, you're going to want to see these places in person. Nothing will give you the feel of a place like having been... Source: over 3 years ago

• Best website to find off-grid land? [Question]

  On landwatch.com there are others who do owner financing as well. We do not need dozens of acres, though I would love to have that. I have seen some places for sale that are seller financed with 0% interest as well, but those are few and far between. Source: almost 4 years ago

• Best State for Off-Grid?

  Good advice being given. landwatch.com for looking up properties. Check the county website for building codes. Go out to areas that might fit your needs. Rinse, lather, repeat. Took me years of searching to find what I was looking for. Landed in Apache County, AZ. Source: almost 4 years ago

• Best place to find land?

  Oregon and Washington are both very expensive states to purchase land. You'll definitely want to get on landwatch.com and use their sorting options to narrow down which parts of those states are affordable for you. And then, of course, plan some trips to those areas so you can be sure you'd want to buy land there (from a distance if necessary) and also so you can talk to planning and zoning in those areas to see...

• My boss said that my accent made me sound unintelligent and that I should try to change it

  If you really want to homestead on the cheap check out landwatch.com that's where I got my parcel in N NV. Source: about 4 years ago

• Likelihood of No-Permit Off Grid Cabin in Colorado?

  For fun, I just ran Black Hawk through landwatch.com and came up with several in the 4-acre range. Prices are starting at about $35,000 for a couple and going up to near $70,000. People define things differently, so I'm not sure what your affordable is. If I had $50,000 to spend on 4-5 acres, I'd still go south and get something with proven water. Far more private, far easier to turn into something special. Source: about 4 years ago

• How do you feel about corner crossing?

  I think the primary issue here is Wyoming's unusual checkerboard layout, alternating public and private land in such a way that results in large chunks of land (10k+ acres) that a landowner perceives to de facto privately control all of (and control access), when actually they only own 50% of it. If you look at landwatch.com or similar you'll see ranches marketed in this way. Source: about 4 years ago

• Any tricks to finding available land?

  I've been searching Craigslist, LandsofAmerica.com, landwatch.com and haven't been able to find what I'm looking for. I've checked local papers in the areas I want to live in, but no listings for land for sale. Any other ideas? Source: over 4 years ago
