Land Portal: https://go.retipster.com/landportalspecial/yt-TqIwFprshmU (REtipster Affiliate Link)
What if you could search for vacant land based on what's actually growing on it? Land Portal just added a cropland and land cover feature that shows whether a property is farmland, woods, or pasture, right on the map.
In this video I turn on the cropland overlay, click through a few parcels to see what crops are on them (corn, soybeans, winter wheat), and walk through the new land cover section on the property card. I also explain where the data comes from (the USDA Cropland Data Layer), how accurate it is, and I test it on a few fields near my house that I drive past all the time.
Then I show the new land cover filter for building mailing lists. If you're a land investor who wants to skip farmland, or a farmland or timberland investor who wants only those properties, this is a fast way to narrow your list before you send a single letter.
Full disclosure: I'm a Land Portal affiliate, minority owner, and advisor.
