Greater Vancouver Land for Sale

Buying vacant land in Greater Vancouver is very different from buying a finished home. You’re not just choosing a location, you’re also evaluating zoning, services, topography and what you’re realistically allowed to build. Things like road access, slope, soil conditions, trees, creeks and rights-of-way can all affect your build costs and timelines.

Before you write an offer, it’s important to understand the zoning, any development restrictions, whether services like water, sewer and gas are at the lot line, and what kind of reports or permits may be required. I’ll help you review listing details, available city information and, where needed, connect you with planners, builders or engineers so you know what you’re stepping into. We’ll also talk about realistic build costs, timeframes and resale considerations so the land aligns with your long-term goals.

Financing can also work differently for land compared to a home, and some lenders have stricter requirements for vacant land or construction projects. Together, we’ll look at your plan, budget and options so you can choose a property that fits both your vision and your financing.

Key things I help land buyers review:

• Zoning, OCP designation and permitted uses
• Access, slope, soil conditions and potential site challenges
• Availability of services (water, sewer, gas, hydro)
• Setbacks, easements, rights-of-way and environmental considerations
• Build costs, timelines and future resale or redevelopment potential
