Land, rural, investment or unusual property — send us the details and we'll return a considered range with the comps we used.
Permitted uses, zoning and development potential set the ceiling on value.
Road access, power, gas, water and septic are checked against the comparables.
Recent land, acreage and rural sales, adjusted for size and location.
A realistic range, and the buyers most likely to pay it.
"Their valuation came within 1.5% of our final sale price. Incredibly accurate." — Jamie R., Calgary
A quarter section and a lot at the edge of town attract different buyers. We compare yours with sales of its own kind.
Zoning, services at the lot line, and comparable land sales.
The home, water and septic, and the drive to town.
Soil quality, cultivated acres and sales of similar parcels nearby.
Access, water frontage and how the land can be used.
Zoning, density and the cost to service the land.
These are the questions a serious buyer — and their lender — will ask. Answering them up front keeps the value where it should be.
The zoning district, what it permits, and any area or community plans.
It decides what a buyer can build or run there.
A registered road or access easement, and whether it is open year-round.
Land without legal, year-round access sells at a steep discount.
Well records, flow and water quality, or a municipal or co-op connection.
Buyers and lenders ask about water first on rural property.
The system type, its age, and when it was last inspected or pumped.
Replacing a septic field is a major cost that buyers price in.
Whether power and natural gas reach the property line, or are already connected.
Bringing services in from the road can be expensive.
Registered interests on title, such as easements, rights-of-way and caveats.
Pipelines and utility rights-of-way limit how the land can be used.
