Land bank directory FAQ
How many land banks are there in the United States?
There are 351 land banks across 32 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 (71), 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?
No. Some hold only a handful of parcels or focus on demolition and side-lot transfers rather than public sales. LandBankSearch tracks live, property-level inventory for 48 land banks — 80,719 properties right now — and lists every other land bank here with its official website so you can check directly.
What is a land bank?
A land bank is a public entity that acquires vacant, abandoned, and tax-foreclosed properties and returns them to productive use — usually by selling them at low prices with conditions like renovation commitments or owner-occupancy priority. They are not banks in the financial sense.
