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.
Every Michigan land bank sets its own eligibility, application, and post-purchase rules. Here are the ones we’ve read from each official program page — always confirm the current terms with the land bank before you apply.

16,344 land bank properties are currently listed across the 11 Michigan land banks we track, with asking prices from $100. Inventory changes monthly; this page refreshes from official sources nightly.
Each Michigan land bank runs its own process, but most purchases start with an application to the land bank rather than an offer through an agent: pick a property from its list, show proof of funds (and usually a renovation plan for structures), and close directly with the land bank. Many prioritize owner-occupants.
Land banks aren't brokers and don't list on the MLS, which is where Zillow and Redfin get their data. Each land bank publishes inventory on its own website — LandBankSearch aggregates those official lists into one searchable map.
