Uses for Empty Land
After reading Rich Dad Poor Dad, I got to thinking about cash flow. Some of the books in the series discuss the idea of owning real estate, and making money on rent.
I thought it would be interesting to explore some ideas on what to do with empty land.
Business Ideas that require minimal building. Possibly just restrooms, and roof or small buildings. Most ideas probably require water and electricity.
Minimal Construction
Specific Ideas Based on Location
City Areas
Small Suburban Lots
Large Farm Area
It seems that there are many ideas for land in city and farm areas, but a more challenging type is a small lot in a sparsely populated residential neighborhood.
Of course some ideas can be combined, and some are mutually exclusive. What else can be done with an empty lot? Post your ideas in the comments.
