From Bush to Gold:The Power of Owing Land

[SUPERSAIAN]

I wanted to buy land not for investment, but for ownership. It's always been my dream to create my own ecosystem, a self-sufficient system with solar energy, smart agriculture, and similar innovations. Land is essential for designing other hobbies. Who knows, I might even own land one day. If I buy land and love it after years, I won't consider selling it, it's my land.

Land ownership is not a requirement for life,but it is a smart foundation for financial freedom.Investing in Lands is one of the smartest investment,that makes you turn money into something permanent and valuable.Land is not an expense,it is an investment that outlives you.The best time to buy land was yesterday,and the second-best time is today.Land waits for no one  the earlier you buy,the better for you.

This is indeed a great investment, probably the best one. However, some precautions are needed, because there are recurrent costs involved. Governments charge taxes from land owners and the fee is usually paid yearly. So always make sure the land you acquired is going to generate income somehow in order to allow you to pay the taxes and still profit something in the end. Otherwise, it won't make sense to hold a land to only have expenses in counterpart.

Moreover, someone who doesn't pay the taxes over his lands can even lose his land to the government after some time.

Land is more expensive now viewing the value and high purchase, the bushes and other areas mentioned are sold for expensive amount now. In my locality the value is very high, in many years to come the value will get higher compared to now but I’m wondering why will anyone sell when they can hold. The more higher purchase the more value increases, I think population also contributes to the value basically in order to find shelter land is involved secondly investment scheme also needs purchasing of land.

Or maybe say due to inflation? Lol. But I think the value of a land can still depend on the location. If it is close to the city or crowded areas then the price can be expensive but cheaper if it is from far away or isolated areas, especially if there is a lot of bush because the buyer is still the one that will clean them. Some will sell because it makes no sense to just hold forever. For what you are investing anyway? For the profit, right? We can also sell at unexpected time for some reasons.

Owing land is honestly one of the smartest moves anyone can make. Land doesn’t lose value in fact, it keeps rising in value with time. If you buy a plot of land now , it means you’re securing your future because the price you pay today will look small in a few years and even if you don’t have any plans for it immediately, it’s still adding value for you.
And when you’re ready to use it , that’s when you’ll see the benefits. Because you can re-sell it at double or even triple amount, then you can use the money to start up a business, buy your dream car , upgrade your life or even invest in something bigger.
What I’m trying to say is Land is that one Asset that waits for you if you own it , add values and gives you better options.

The funds to buy land is the issues. The place where you intend to buy such a land must meet the amount you intend to spend unless you aren't ready and that's why Bitcoin long term DCA strategy of investment assures that you own that land anywhere you want in a decades time.

There are obviously risk involved, but there should be no rush when going into land based investment because the trouble from buying from the persons or having the fake documents or buying in a place that may not be inhabitable in coming years due to very serious hazardous reasons is worse than the benefits you intend to get if all things work according to plan.

Come 2026,Invest in Land because it's the One Asset the World Can’t Make More Of.

There’s a popular saying: “Don’t wait to buy land. Buy land and wait.”
Why? Because land is the one asset on Earth that is permanently limited.Perhaps,GOD isn't creating more of lands.Every other investment  companies, buildings, even cryptocurrencies can increase in supply.But Land is fixed.

Imagine your favorite city 10-20 years ago. Think of all the empty spaces, thick bushes, or faraway areas people never cared about. Fast forward to today  many of those places are now estates, businesses, highways, shopping centers, and expensive neighborhoods.Someone bought that “empty land” then.
Someone else is wishing they did now.The more you delay, someone else takes the spot you should have claimed.

Many people think land investment is only for the wealthy but the wealthy became wealthier because they invested early.Because they know the game is ownership not hustle.
You buy more gadgets,they keep buying lands.
Check this out,the wealthy aren't buying lambos, they're buying acres.Even bill gates is now the biggest farmland owner in the US.

Even the government treat it as a cheat code that's why they purchase it,seize it and protect it.

The world cannot produce more land, but you can secure your share of the little that exists.Land is not just a purchase
it is a legacy,It is security,It is freedom and It is the foundation of wealth.
If you want an investment that grows while you sleep,invest in land.

Your comparison with Bill Gates is a mistake in your argument, because it is clear that the reference does not make sense, Bill gates is a successful businessman in his field, and now why he bought so much land is for his business, there is a saying that in the next few years there will be a food crisis, and those who have land will be easy for them to plant and do business with their agricultural products, I think that's the way of thinking, not meaning like in your argument where you buy land and then wait for the price to increase in the future, that is old-fashioned thinking.

There are many reasons why you should buy land today, including strategic land needs to be an option, and do you have access to future development? if the land you buy today will become a landfill or be affected by landslides, won't the land become very cheap?

However, we also need to consider the location of the land. If it's not located close enough to a densely populated city or village, the price will never be high because there won't be enough buyers in that location. Therefore, we need to ensure this before buying, because land located close to a densely populated city or village will continue to experience price increases due to the large number of people who prefer to live there. Furthermore, land close to cities can also be used as future business opportunities, so it's natural for prices to fluctuate. It's clearly better to buy quickly before someone else grabs it.

The world cannot produce more land

The world can produce more land, new islands can and do appear occasionally.  Also land can be created for a variety of reasons and all continents have some movement from this fluid nature to even the land itself.  However it is incredibly slow process, tectonic shifts in the world land mass.
   So yea I agree in general the rate of production is far less then the rate at which demand grows in most parts of the world though that change might also be too slow in your life time.  Mostly that would mean your own usage is most important of all to determine success and profit.

Land is more productive and practical but gold would be more transportable and fungible, they both have advantages. Gold has no yield, it has to be judged carefully and never held too much imo as everyone needs a positive yield of some kind.

I mean, do the wealthy always target land as an investment asset in the property category? I don't think so. Rather, the wealthy invest in potentially livable space, even though they technically don't own the land on which they build.

Yeah, property must be still a hot investment option in many countries. Not just wealthy but everyone in my country dream about owning a land and then a house to live in. If they already own a house, they still look for more properties for investment purposes. So, real estate seems like never ending hot trend in my country.

The Burj Khalifa was built on only ~30 hectares of land, boasting 160 floors⁽¹⁾, with apartment prices ranging from $500k to $70m USD⁽²⁾. That's even more expensive than green land in poorer countries.

It is expensive because middle-east is also a high-end country as far as I know and there are many people, tourist, business means that came here, so spaces are in-demand. It is not comparable to the poor country like there in your example. Another thing is that, you are comparing a land to a building. Of course, building is always expensive. There is no need of explain why it's so.

If you want an investment that grows while you sleep,invest in land.

I agree about this but people shouldn't make this as a competition with bitcoin as both are good investments and there can't be more bitcoin's mined other than the 21 million that's set until 2140. The value of land grows over the period of time and it's true that even you only sleep on it, the price of it will increase depending on the development of the area where you've bought it. So, be wise as well if you're investing in land that you're buying where there's movement and development and not from some top of the mountain unless you'll make some rest house there where others could rent it out when they want to breathe some fresh air.

Land is one of the necessary assets to have in life as an investment because it can be passed from generation to generation and its value increases, not devalues, over time.

Population growth and urbanization are making the available land expensive, so the rich are the ones who are seen to buy and build on the land the most in developed places than the poor people.

However, what I know is that, development will reach every corner of the world. Those places that are yet to be developed, will someday develop, giving those who have money to buy in those places to build and have their dream house or companies.

It sounds strange when I hear people say they pay tax on land. This is not the case in my location. Land owners could use their property for personal or business dealings and they are not mandated to pay property tax. It is only highbrow areas in the capital of my country that pay property tax and the amount is small.

They will pay business tax on the profit of the venture situated on the landed property. Investing in landed property in some countries is very profitable since they don't have land or property taxes for owning the asset.

Land prices never fall every year, but they do increase, especially if they're located in areas with the potential to become densely populated. Investing in land isn't bad, and if you have extra money, it's worth it. Our parents told us that buying land won't result in a loss.
Land and gold are two assets for the future. Land is an asset for retirement, while gold, in my opinion, is a reserve fund that can be used at any time.
The problem is that it takes a long time to wait for price increases, and selling land doesn't always sell as quickly as sellers expect cash, even if banks are willing to buy.

Bitcoin hasn't increased, but crypto might.

There is no any advice that will make me to change my mind to buy a land. There is something you need to know about problems before owing a land.

Land isn't liquid to give you money immediately. If you buy a land today and you want to hold it for 10 good years, it's possible that the price will be worth 5x the price you bought it but let me tell you, it's going to be a problem if you want to sell that land immediately and get 5x payment, people that will come will want to buy it less, unless you sell it when it's demanded that's the only time you get the price you want.

If you buy a land and refused to check it time to time for long period of time, you may find out that another person has reclaim your land. You can buy Bitcoin and leave it there for 15 years without touching it but you can't do that with a land. A lot can happen to your land within that period of time.

Investing in things that adds value over time is one thing that should be done this is the secret of the rich and wealthy in society.land is one this that always appreciates because because just like Bitcoin it's a fixed asset in today's world and time investing in land is one thing that is profitable especially in the the developing countries were the need of a home is a necessity. If you invest in land today that land can appreciate by a hundred percent in two to three years time depending on the location of the land.

[beerlover]

One thing that you need to keep in mind that "eventually land will run out so I better get more land" is not a smart investment for a human life. I can understand if we had centuries to wait, but for the time being there is no need for it.

Because lets look at USA, they rather live in a small New York city for 10-20 million people all together in cramp up tall buildings then need more land, they demolish buildings to make taller ones. So, it's clear that we can definitely see land be enough for people until we die. We are not going to buy some land where nobody lives, and hope that the world grows to that, sure that will happen in a few centuries but not while we are alive and we are not growing that much horizontally, we do it vertically.

I personally continue to seek profits from crypto investments and trading, as well as from my current job, so that I can buy the land I have long dreamed of. This is because I also see that owning land is like the pinnacle of material or physical investment. We know that the richest people in the world own vast amounts of land that I could never even dream of owning. Land will also be the most valuable asset in the future for our children, who will certainly need land for their homes or even for agriculture, which can generate more profits than the land price itself, which continues to increase every year. Land prices in my country increase significantly every year. I recently realized that land prices in my country are among the cheapest compared to other countries. I think that someday land prices in this country will be as high as in developed countries. Therefore, the opportunity to buy land is only available now and must be done as soon as possible. As the human population increases, a piece of land will become more and more valuable.
