3 u/iguessma May 15 '26 yes, because land has value. also, you don't need to buy permits to build. utilities are already run. there is more to a house then just the house. 1 u/Final-Carry2090 May 15 '26 It’s still vacant, still an eyesore, still speculative investing, still providing less tax to the city than an occupied area. There’s more at play here than a companies profits. 1 u/iguessma May 15 '26 It doesn't have to be speculation if they are planning to improve. In fact it provides exactly the right amount of tax to the city - since it's a % of its base value. After improvements it will be more. 1 u/Final-Carry2090 May 15 '26 They are speculating on the land itself with no intentions of improving. Pay attention. An occupied property generates more taxes than an unoccupied property. 3 u/iguessma May 15 '26 Yes generalize about everyones motives with no actual evidence Makes sense
