@David_Charts @mattyglesias It really is not that simple to sell land- takes several months to close even for the most urgent acquisition of commerical raw land with no unusual circumstances... Add to that the small pool of potential buyers and fluctuating business cycle, can take several years to sell.
@David_Charts @mattyglesias (currently in the process of selling a small parcel of farmland for datacenter development, offer accepted in March, sale will close in Nov, even though the buyer is in a hurry to build)
