For most people, the first thing that comes when they think about what to do with vacant land is to build a dwelling. Manufactured homes are popular today because they are much cheaper and easier to put on land than custom ‘stick-built’ homes, and the quality and styles available have dramatically improved in recent years.
Tiny homes are another affordable trend, as many seek to not only save money but downsize their lives. Thanks to the pandemic, work from home and creative spaces, as well as weekend getaways are desirable for those tired of commuting and all the hassles involved in working in a city. For those who really want to get away from population centers, prepper hideaways are the answer.
Beyond dwellings, vacant land offers many possibilities, some of which can make you money! With appropriate zoning and land use codes, these include:
- Parking and storing vehicles (big rigs, RVs, boats, trailers, etc.)
- Recreation (camping, hunting, fishing, ridings ATVs and dirt bikes, etc.)
- Horses and/or cattle pastures and stables.
- Conservation and habitat preservation for birds and wildlife.
- Large item storage, even a junk yard.
- Plant nursery.
- Hosting events.
- Leasing part or all the land to others for placement of billboards, cell phone towers, solar panels, wind turbines, etc.
- Leasing to farmers or timber harvesters.
