“2021 is looking to be an equally impressive year for land investment. In particular, my firm has seen significant interest in rural land for residential use. This makes sense given the impact of the pandemic, and some of the large societal changes it’s spurred. As people anticipate being able to work from home on a permanent or semi-permanent basis, they are interested in relocating away from cities and suburbs to more rural areas where they can reconnect with nature and more easily isolate themselves from others.
