Information Buyers Need for Vacant Land

Vacant land is different from an established home, so buyers may need specific information before deciding whether to enquire.

Your listing can include relevant details such as:

Land Size

Clearly state the available land area and provide accurate measurements.

Location

Explain where the land is located and highlight relevant nearby amenities or transport connections where appropriate.

Property Features

Include information about the block, access, orientation and other relevant characteristics.

Planning and Zoning Information

Where applicable, provide accurate information about zoning, planning or development considerations.

Services and Access

Include available information about utilities, road access and other relevant property services.

Only provide information that you can verify and that is appropriate for the property.

Present Your Property Clearly

Pricing and Presenting Your Land

The way residential land is presented can influence whether potential buyers decide to enquire.

A clear listing should make the important information easy to understand.

Use Accurate Information

Make sure the land size, location, price and property details are correct.

Use Useful Images

Where appropriate, include clear images that help buyers understand the land and its surroundings.

Explain Key Features

Highlight relevant features of the property without making claims that cannot be supported.

Make the Price Clear

Present your asking price or pricing approach clearly so potential buyers understand the sale terms.
