Land banks’ flexibility to respond to local challenges and opportunities sets them apart from other entities. Throughout the decades, land banks continued to evolve and respond to meet the changing needs of the communities they serve—more important than ever given present realities of the real estate market and community and economic development challenges.

In 2023, Community Progress conducted the biennial State of Land Banking Survey to understand where the land bank field is now and where it is headed. Our new publication, The Road Ahead for Land Banks: Opportunities for Growth and Greater Equity, highlights key survey findings alongside case studies and context from our extensive experience with land banks across the country.

  • Hear about innovative programs land banks implemented to advance equity in addressing vacant, abandoned, and deteriorated properties
