Why Would Someone Lose Their Property?

Why would someone lose their property?

I have been investing in raw land since 2001, and the question I hear all the time is WHY? Why would someone lose their property? How do they get to the point of losing a great piece of property that I can buy for pennies on the dollar and turn around and make a HUGE profit on it?

Too often, people think there must be something wrong with the property. Why else would anyone let a valuable piece of property go? The truth is, that is almost never the case.

There are a lot of reasons why somebody would lose their property. Maybe they are going through a costly divorce. Maybe they live out of state and they are never going to use that property. Maybe they bought it for speculation like a legacy investor and then decided, “You know what? This is just a big mistake.” Maybe unfortunately, their parents died and they inherited the property and they actually have no emotional attachment to it and they get the tax bill and think, “This is not an asset. This is a liability. We are never going to use this property.”

There are lots of reasons someone would lose their property. There are as many reasons why people don’t want a property as there are people. There is typically nothing wrong with that property, the owner simply views that piece of land as a HEADACHE. Not only can you make a HUGE return on investment with buying and selling raw land, but time and time again you will discover that you are actually helping out the seller by relieving them of their headache.
