Landbanking is not a new concept. Residential and commercial developers, farming and dairy businesses have used the practice for decades. Farmers and dairymen have always been forced to buy land on the outskirts of cities because that's where land was affordable.
Again and again, farmers and dairymen have sold their land to developers as cities grew toward their farms and dairies and then they moved their operations further into the countryside and started again. Many of these individuals are multimillionaires today not from their farming operations, but from buying property in the path of growth, holding, (landbanking) and then selling to developers or builders.
Federal and state government, environmental groups, conservatories, trusts, huge corporations and wealthy individuals have been landbanking for decades. Large, well financed corporations understand that land must be purchased well in advance of projected use because the corporations want to make certain the land is available when needed.
The new opportunity today is that Land Resource Investments, Inc. can provide individuals with a method to take advantage of landbanking just like these large corporations.
