    Your series of tips are coming in quite handy....they do a great job of filtering out "BS" property sales.

    What does the 7% indicate? How would that influence decisions made on the property? Would there be a percentage that would be a red flag for example?

    Good teaching on how to use the county topography map, I like how you measured the hill height.

    Hello I saw all your videos they were very helpful but if I do decide to move forward on buy a piece of land how do I do the purchase? Give the land owner a call make and offer n pay all the back taxes and liens do I need a lawyer or what ? Can you please let me know … I’ll really appreciate thanks!

    • @CompassLandUSA

      Hi Robert! Glad you found our videos helpful! that's pretty much it. you can give the owner a call and see if they're willing to sell. you may need a lawyer or paralegal to help you draft contracts and an agreement to buy the land. once you have signed contracts you can forward them to a title company to facilitate the transfer. i wouldn't recommend transferring the property yourself, unless you're really sure of what you're doing, because that could create issues with the title. good luck!

    How did you get the 7%? Please if you could explain that if possible?

    • @CompassLandUSA

      For sure! To find the slope of something (in this case the surface of the land) you need to first identify 2 points on your surface, in the video we used the property edges per the county GIS map.
      Between these 2 points, you need to find the total change in height ('rise') and the length between the points ('run'). The formula for slope is rise divided by run. We will multiply the result of this by 100% to get our slope as a percentage.
      slope = rise / run = 20 / 257 = 0.07782101167 * 100$ = 7.782101167 %
      I rounded down to 7% in the video for simplicity. Does this help clear things up?

    What is the use for finding out the topography?

    • @CompassLandUSA
      @CompassLandUSA  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Contour maps (or topographic maps) make it possible to show the height, shape, and the steepness of the terrain you'll be building your future home on, on paper. Building planners use this to understand the terrain and make informed decisions regarding land use, resource management, and infrastructure development.

    Where can I research to see up and coming development in the area???

    • @CompassLandUSA
      @CompassLandUSA  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You can find out about future real estate developments in your area by checking with your local city planning department or municipal government. They often have information about upcoming projects, zoning changes, and development plans. You can also keep an eye on local news sources, community meetings, and real estate websites for announcements about upcoming developments. Additionally, reaching out to local real estate agents or developers may provide insight into future projects in your area.
