What is Land Banking?
Land Banking (land investment) is the practice of acquiring land and
holding it for future use.
Historically, countless fortunes have been made in Land Banking by individuals who understood the concept of buying and holding pre-developed land in the path of growth. They did nothing more than buy and hold land in growing regions. Imagine buying land on the outskirts of London, New York, Tokyo at prices 50 years ago and what it is worth today.
World Famous Land Bankers
Worldwide famous personalities have made fortunes by investing this way. For example; Rockefellers, Donald Trump, Richard Branson, Howard Hughes, Walt Disney, Li Ka-Shing, Mori family (Mori Trust) to name but a few.

Good Timing for Land Banking
So when is the best time to invest? Invest while prices are still affordable, where there's room for growth, and where the potential for profit is greater. This is buying land at the pre-developed stage. One could compare purchasing land at the pre-developed stage to purchasing at wholesale, while purchasing land at the developed stage to purchasing at retail.
Land banking is timeless. The power of land is universal. The pressure of an exploding population on unimproved land places the owner of that land in an enviable profit-making position that will never again exist. Once the land is improved, the original opportunity is gone.
