What is a land bank?

A land bank is a public entity that acquires vacant, abandoned, and tax-foreclosed property, clears the title, and returns it to productive use — usually by selling at deep discounts with conditions like renovation commitments or owner-occupancy priority. They are not banks in the financial sense. Read the full explainer: what is a land bank? Or find yours with the land bank locator.

Land bank directory FAQ

How many land banks are there in the United States?

There are 354 land banks across 33 states and Puerto Rico, based on the national directory maintained by the Center for Community Progress. Most were created under state enabling statutes passed since 2009, and new ones form every year.

Which states have the most land banks?

Ohio (72), Michigan (55), Kansas (40), Pennsylvania (38), Georgia (31) lead the country. Land banks concentrate where state law enables them and where vacancy is highest — the Midwest and Northeast.

Do all land banks have properties for sale?

LandBankSearch tracks live, property-level inventory for 70 land banks — 75,130 properties right now — and lists every other land bank here with its official website so you can check directly.
