Land bank purchases are application-based, not offer-based: pick a property from the official list, read that land bank’s program rules (owner-occupant priority, investor policies, renovation requirements), and apply with proof of funds. Title is typically cleared before resale. The process runs weeks to a few months — paperwork, not bidding wars. Our step-by-step buying guide covers every stage.
