Buying a piece of land in Washington is a dream come true … until it’s not.
When purchasing property, most buyers don’t know what they’re getting into – what they can and can’t do with the land, what county zoning codes and regulations permit and prohibit, what burdens might be attached to the property, and what the property’s true value and resale value are.
