  From my real estate agent contact: 1)Many land sellers are now looking for cash because it is such a hot commodity on Long Island 2)We need to be able to close on our first land financing quickly and then move on to the construction financing. If everything works out, we will have the resources to do a cash deal for the next land purchase and be a more competitive buyer. 3)I am being set up for automatic emailings of MLS listings, but she is working on building relationships with banks so that she will know about land coming available before the general public 4)5 other buyers have come to her for land listings also
