Many landowners believe that if they don’t own dozens—or hundreds—of acres, their property simply isn’t worth anyone’s time. Small parcels often get overlooked, undervalued, or sit unsold for years because sellers assume there’s no demand.
The truth? Size alone does not determine value.
Why This Myth Exists
Traditional buyers and many realtors focus on homes or large tracts, leading sellers to believe small parcels aren’t desirable. But land investors look at utility, not acreage.
What Actually Matters More Than Size
Experienced land buyers evaluate:
- Location and access
- Zoning and allowed uses
- Shape and frontage
- Holding potential
- Market demand for infill or niche parcels
Small lots can be ideal for recreational use, neighboring owners, future development, or long-term holding strategies.
Why Small Parcels Can Be Highly Desirable
Smaller tracts often:
- Sell faster
- Require lower capital
- Appeal to a wider buyer pool
- Carry fewer ongoing costs
In many markets, small parcels are easier to resell than large acreage.
