Definition

An infill lot is a vacant parcel in an already-developed area—like an empty space between existing buildings. It's surrounded by existing development, which means utilities are nearby, roads exist, and there's established demand. These lots are often hidden gems for development.

About this term

Infill lots represent opportunities to develop in already-established neighborhoods. They often have utilities, road access, and existing zoning. Development can be faster and more cost-effective than greenfield development.

Pro Tip

Infill lots in growing areas appreciate rapidly because they're scarce. If you find one in a desirable location, you've found a valuable development opportunity. Scarcity drives value.

Example

A vacant corner lot in downtown between existing commercial buildings ready for new construction.
