At one time land investment was just for the wealthy. Today, there are a number of companies serving smaller investors select plots of land to buy, and investments typically start at about $10,000 offering following types of plot of land available across the UK -

Brownfield Land: Brownfield Land is the common term used for previously developed land i.e land that is or was occupied by a permanent structure. This land is often smaller, resulting in High Rise Development e.g. old petrol station and factories.
Greenfield Land: Greenfield Land simply refers to land that has never been used for development eg Farmland.

Greenbelt Land: Greenbelt Land is largely undeveloped or sparsely occupied land, which historically has been set aside to contain development, prevent towns merging and provide open space. Greenbelt boundaries can change in response to the requirements for additional housing in a controlled manner.
Be it a farmland, greenbelt land, greenfield land or brownfield land, buying plots of land for sale has the potential to make stunning returns quickly. Infact prices of land in UK have increased by a stunning 926% in last two decades.

Also as this rise is based on sound fundamentals and an increasing mismatch between demand and supply of housing dwellings there is little risk involved in it.
