Before you buy land.

Land comes with questions a house does not. Check these first.

Access. Is there a legal road or easement to reach it?
Utilities. Is power, water, or septic available, and what would it cost to add them?
Zoning and restrictions. Can you use the land the way you plan to?
Survey and title. Confirm the boundaries and that the title is clear.
Flood and drainage. Check whether any part of the land is at risk.
Taxes. Ask about property taxes and any exemptions that apply.
