A few months back I found land for $10,000 in Spring Texas on e-bay, but did not have the savings back then and have had no luck finding similar values so far. I am just looking for a basic .5 acre-or-larger lot to invest in (and later build a home on). Are there any online sites, real-estate, auction, or otherwise that would sell land in that price range (that wouldn't be more than 30 miles outside the city), for a clear title?
Dude ... you have to have been smoking something illegal there. I recall buying one fourth acre without city water or sewer [roads, power and telephone only] in Detroit's far suburbs [maybe only 30 miles out] in the late 1960s for $7,000.
