I think an appraiser undervalued our land. How can I find out what land is selling for in my area?

Go to www.switchboard.com and find your nearest 5 real estate agencies.  Call them up and ask them who in that office deals with the most real estate LAND purchases.  tell them what you have (how much land, is it buildable, etc) and ask them to send you "comps" on land just like yours in your area.  Comps (it stands for comparables) will tell you how much land SOLD FOR in the past "x" amount of time and "y" distance from your land.\nNow - take as many SOLD pieces of land that has sold in the past 6 months (longer if you have to) in a close vicinity of yours (I like to use less than a half mile)...  Land is more difficult than houses, but it is still entirely possible.  take as many honest comps (you'll have to sort out the ones the realtor gives you) as you can and eliminate the highest sold amount and lowest sold amount.  Average the rest...  This should give you the best-guess at market value...\n\nBe careful - Don't use the realtor's current listings that are still on the market.  these "asking prices" mean nothing to you.  Only concentrate on how much similar land SOLD for in your area...  you'll get a real good idea of what you can get for your land!!\n\nGood Luck!\n\nA coupl

Have an apraiser come out and take a look at it.  I know that is probably not the answer that you were looking for, but I wouldn't trust someone who has not seen it to know what it's worth.

contact the mayor's office or local city/county treasurer to obtain the list of properties planned for auction. www.housevalues.com or a real estate offfice should inform you of market value, the assssor's office should provide assesment info., county engineeering informs of environmental, flood, and hazardous area, and the county records office informs of existing mortgages. i found foreclosure listings at the HOUSING AUTHORITY. the county auditor should provide bidding information and forms.

You could try going to antique shops and asking them if they know someone who could appraise it, or if someone there would be able to.  The prices for the stuff in antique shops have to be set somehow.  There should be someone there who would know something about it, or be able to direct you to someone who does appraisals.

If its a privately owned plot of land all you have to do is go to the recorder of deeds in your area. From there you can research each past owner. I've done it and its lots of fun! For a public area just go to your local historical society.

I think you may have confused the Tax Collecor with the Property Appraiser Rob Turner.  \n\nYou can find who owns the property by entering the address at the Property Appraiser Web Site I've included below.

Of course you can- this happens all the time.  You can go directly to the owner, if you know who it is, or you can get a special map from your county courthouse that will show you who the land owners are.  Track them down from there.

If you are talking about finding one that is filed you would contact the property appraisers office either on line or in person. This is public record and should be pretty easy to find. You can use the physical or legal address of the property.

Go to your county's property appraiser website and from there you can locate by name or address. That website will probably also have a link for the local tax collector where you can check taxes.

Talk to a local realtor, or a local land surveyor.  The surveyor will be able to tell you how it can be split up into lots for individual sale to maximize your dollar.

Best way is to check recent sales prices of other homes in the area.  Try domania.com.  As for what it will fetch in another year from now, no way to predict.

you go to the county that the camp is in and find the bureau of vital statistics and or the county clerks office .you can find what the recorded purchase price was.to find the original appraised price you would have to know the appraiser.it sounds like if it is a camp that the county might not be that big and you could find out the appraisers i that county.

First,Check with your City Zoning department to see if it is zoned for Commercial use. If so, look for comparable commercial property sales near your area.\nBest person to talk to about this, is an experienced  commercial Realtor. If you don't know one,you can ask for a referral through the "Board of Realtors" in your County,  \n\nLearner
