You see competition isn’t related to just other investors as one may think, you have many outside influences to compete with who are naturally going to be more educated, more adapt to conceptual thinking, also they are probably better funded than many of you and they have more experiences with buying predeveloped land for profit.

Let me begin by asking you a question, “have you ever driven by a plot of land day after day, wondering why it is so vacant in an area, then one day out of no where a giant superstore or chain retailer suddenly appears?” Do you really believe that these stores recently made a purchase to build there because new growth was in the area?

The answer to the second question is No! These stores have done research dated 10, 15 even 20 years prior to the development. They use land banking as a standard business practice for several reasons. Some of the biggest factors are they knew the growth of these cities were coming, they also knew the value of the land would significantly increase.

With that said they have the ability to fund the deal by leveraging the equity of the asset and only accumulate enough debt for the build out and construction, Once completed it’s business as usual, just as a homeowner handles expenses and debt so do the retailers.

This is just one of your many competitors, you also have Government agencies that use land banking for the same reasons, wealthy investors who know the value of owning real estate in a major path of growth. Also you have builders and developers who land bank for the entire business model.

Asset acquisition firms as well as hedge funds use land banking as a tool to resell shares for profit and return as the projects begin their development phase. Education institutions, banks, corporations. You see until you are tuned into the entire of why land banking these issues wouldn’t come to mind.

The most important thing to remember is that these competitors are also your best friend because when you beat them to the purchase they become your newest buyers. If you have enough desirable land for the building project you may be able to earn profits from leasing, renting, joint ventures and partnerships.

Use your intelligence and sources to find out how to start beating these big fierce competitors at their own game so you can win and profit in the end. Why recreate the wheel use a proven business method to create wealth and financial security in your life.

Land banking is one of the oldest forms of real estate investors, I recently started a great read called “Pay Dirt” It takes the science of land banking and puts you the reader in the drivers seat for education.
