LAND VALUES

The average value of land is rising at the fastest rate since 2014. The price of bare land rose by almost 4% in the first quarter of this year, while annual growth hit 14%.



A continued lack of supply and strong demand from a wide range of purchasers - particularly from lifestyle and conservation-motivated buyers - continue to support prices.



As inflation soars, investors are also key buyers as they seek out tangible assets that act as an insurance against such rises. As ongoing economic uncertainty continues, land values are expected to rise even further.
