Mapping Case Study: How to Build a Lead List Using Layer Library

In today’s competitive property development market, technology isn’t just helpful—it’s essential. Developers and investors are under constant pressure to identify opportunities quickly, act decisively, and stay ahead of the competition. This is where the Acres Layer Library becomes a game-changer.

With the Layer Library, property developers can not only pinpoint optimal building areas but also build targeted contact lists of landowners within a defined area. This case study walks you through how home builders can leverage this tool to streamline their outreach and maximize efficiency.

Step 1: Access the Layer Library

Begin by navigating to the Layer Library on the Acres Map. The Layer Library is a comprehensive database that integrates national and local data layers, offering insights into zoning, parcel boundaries, infrastructure, and much more.

Whether you're targeting urban infill opportunities or rural developments, the Layer Library is your one-stop resource.

Step 2: Select Parcels Using Filters

The Layer Library’s power lies in its flexibility. By selecting parcels anywhere in the country, users can apply filters to narrow down their search based on specific criteria, including:

• Location: Focus on areas of interest, from bustling metro regions to up-and-coming suburban zones.
• Size: Identify parcels that meet your project requirements, whether it’s a few acres or large tracts of land.
• Zoning: Quickly determine parcels with the appropriate zoning for residential or mixed-use developments.

This ability to overlay data and refine your search ensures that you’re spending time on the properties that best match your project goals.

Step 3: Retrieve Owner Contact Information

Once you've identified the parcels of interest, the next step is to access detailed owner information.

Acres simplifies this process by aggregating public and private records to provide accurate and up-to-date contact details for landowners. Instead of spending hours manually sifting through records, home builders can instantly pull the information they need to initiate meaningful conversations with property owners.

• Save Time: Automate the process of identifying and researching land opportunities.
• Be Strategic: Use filters to focus only on properties that align with your business goals.
• Build Relationships: Access direct contact information to establish connections with landowners and kickstart negotiations.
• Stay Competitive: Harness cutting-edge tools to stay ahead in a fast-paced market.
