I recently corresponded with a land broker from Richmond named Shields Jett. After checking out his website (http://ww2.jettlandandrealty.com/) and blog (http://jettlandandrealty.blogspot.com/), I thought I’d do a quick supply-side survey of large acreage land tracts in Louisa and Fluvanna counties…the main buffer counties between Richmond and Charlottesville. Here’s what I came up with. This is by no means exhaustive, but I’m confident that it covers 90% to 95% of the available acreage tracts. I have not tracked supply-side data over time, but my gut tells me that there is more land on the market now than in the last few years.
