Urban sprawl and its market consequences

Cities spread outward like an oil slick. Urban sprawl is the flight of residents to the suburbs in search of peace and their own garden. The market consequences are twofold: on the one hand, demand for cheap agricultural plots near the city grows, quickly gaining in value. On the other hand, the cost of living increases gigantically due to commuting. When investing in the suburbs, it is crucial to find land directly from the owner, bypassing the chain of intermediaries, which allows you to keep the margin. It is worth remembering that peripheries without good road infrastructure can quickly become a trap.
