I appreciate your advice
First of all, what the fuck, how are people paying 1.2k lease per nectar and are still able to make a profit of it (this is possible if you plant vegetables, but most farmers dont do vegetables).
I am trying to clarify that atm. In my research, I saw wildly different numbers from $30 to $160 per 1000 m2
Even if you only rent out 50% its still 500$ per month
$20/mo per 50m2 is $5K… which is nice like you said
I would try to market this as a “DIY” garden.
There are actually a lot of projects like that. They unofficially partition the land into 500 m2 parts, arrange water and electricity (some don’t arrange that either), and they sell. Thy call them hobby gardens. Do you happen to know about them?

for $4?

I’m just dreaming. Let’s say I created a nice community here and offered cool activities like woodworking, gardening, meditation, yoga, massages, weightlifting, social dancing, soccer or some sport, community dinners. I don’t know the cost* of doing all that but say I get on Booking for $10/night. Hosting 1 person per 100 m2 means 250 people :D I think it would be a no brainer to pay $300/mo for all those activities. Depending on the quality of the community, people might be willing to pay up to $1000/mo imo.
*toilet & shower, sleeping tent, mattress & pillow & bedding, solar panel & powerbank, desk & chair, co-working tent, transportation costs, security, food, drinking water… I’d have to somehow transport poop out of here or make poop disappear
Alternatively, I might want to do this in mediterranean region. It would be easier to market, right? Idk if I can rent someone’s land to do this tho?

250m2 of permanent structure is legal. Non-permanent structure (tiny houses with wheels, tents) of any size is also legal.
Hypothetically maximum residential development here might be something like 25,000 m2 of apartments, which can be sold for +$1000/m2. That would be very be illegal. Also, this area would be zoned as industrial, not residential (after 2040-2050)
I’m just dreaming here. Let’s say I created a nice community here,
- nice people,
- healthy lifestyle and cool activities (woodworking, gardening, meditation, yoga, massages, weightlifting, social dancing, soccer), Then let’s say I did good marketing. Idk the cost* of doing all that but let’s say I put this on hostelworld and booking for $10/night. If I host 1 person per 100 m2, that would be 250 people :D

Usually people in villages want to move to modern areas. Villages are old, boring, ugly, etc usually
Works of industrial zone live in residential areas near the industrial zone. You could see that area in the picture below if you zoom

There’s no natural disasters here but I’d have to have political connections and be rich if I wanted to do something like this without getting hurt in this country. I rather have less to lose and do something more modest
But out of curiosity, how would the investment numbers look like? They invest 1m on land and get 60% of the returns and I get 40% for the next 20 yeas for example?

Hey wanna be my marketer? :D

Are you interested in helping with this challenge? :D
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
You bought a bunch of land with no plan for it??
It is common in this country to invest in land. I should have invested in US tech but I was young and not well informed
Any thoughts on figuring out longer-term plan?
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
I might be wrong but this area’s land is quite wet. There’s even a small swamp in middle of my parcel. There’s a big river 1km away
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
There’s a solar farm 1km away. I heard here it would require like $1m of investment and it pays for itself in 7 years but that’s above my pay grade AFAIK
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
Yes I can build 250m2 of house here but that would kill land’s future investment potential (organized industrial area expansion is the development play here)
So instead I plan to use tents to host people if I ever do something here
Though, I guess I can build sheds if they are easy/cheap to remove. I don’t know much about construction

any ideas on what i can do about that?
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
:D
I know its value if I did what others did. There are many projects in my area.
I am just trying to make my project different so I can have something I can market on the internet. This way I can sell for a higher price.

Pretty land is definitely rare here. I’ve never seen a similar project that is green, but I don’t know what it means financially to people.
People drive for 2 hours to go to green areas for picnic for example. Almost all buyers of this type of land grew up in a flat and they overvalue greenery compared to someone who grew up in a house with backyard.

I told her my plans but I also found the concept unbelievable at first. Free labor? But people volunteer to experience different cultures or different ways of living and such. I met many volunteers
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
if it’s just random $10k properties,
For my case, that number is $5k
you may be able to land some random customers
I’d need 50 customers at that price
in the woods
Climate is dry so there is no such thing as “in the woods” here. “In the woods” areas are valuable here (at least emotionally). People drive for 2 hours to go to such areas here for picnic
The problem IMO is differentiating the land from alternatives. Otherwise people wouldn’t pay 3x or even 2x probably. Why would they?
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
i can use workaway and such.
i met a volunteer who offered to volunteer for this project. she studied agriculture something in uni and has a farming license.
cost of hosting 10-15 volunteers would be like $1k/mo here.
but i guess it wouldn’t be smart to rely on that. i don’t even know what i’d want them to do at this point tbh
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
this one is agricultural land
i wish it had zoning :)
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
sales records are private here and people usually don’t want to share that info
i could call 100 realtors and ask if they sold any “pretty” land, and if one of them sold such land, i could try to learn its sales price
maybe i could use AI to “modify” this land. and use that as marketing material and then do surveys to at least come up with a worst case number?
thoughts?
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
what would be the cheapest way to figure out if such people exist?
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
but that is my assumption. maybe it is not worth $2x/m2. maybe it is only worth $0.5x/m2

i think their purpose isn’t to farm. their purpose is to have a good time. they can do that better if their land is pretty
how do i figure out the supply and demand of pretty land?
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
This is agricultural land. People are not allowed to build houses on this land. I have nothing to do with housing market issues
If I wasn’t nice, I’d tell you to go back to reddit

Would you want to help me with this project? I can tell you what I’m doing and ask for your perspective.
I can ask my old professors if they know any US-EU based companies that need cheap talent.
I have a great background on paper.
At worst I can try to find investors. Guy I talked to said it would be easy to get investment. He didn’t choose that path because they asked 40% for $100K. I could start with this version, and then learn how this works, and then do it in another country solo
