How to Comp Land in Seconds with Land Portal’s AI Report Tool
If you’re investing in land, one of the most important (and often time-consuming) steps is comping properties accurately. Traditionally, that meant digging through Zillow, cross-checking acreage, filtering out bad data, and second-guessing your final number.
Now, Land Portal has completely changed the game.
With the AI Comp Report, you can determine a realistic market value for vacant land in about 60 seconds, using real sales data, predictive pricing, and automated outlier removal.
Watch the full walkthrough video above to see the process in action, then follow the step-by-step guide below to start using it yourself.
Step 1: Log into Land Portal
Start by logging into your Land Portal account.
Once inside the platform, you’ll have access to nationwide parcel data, mapping tools, and the AI report features used to comp land quickly and accurately.
Step 2: Navigate to the Property You Want to Comp
Using the interactive map, zoom into the state, county, and area where your subject property is located.
In the video example, a 5.69-acre property in Butts County, Georgia is selected.
Click directly on the parcel you want to analyze to view the Property Card.

Step 3: Open the AI Comp Report Tool
Once your property is selected, look for the AI Report section.
You’ll see two AI-powered options:
- Slope Report
- Comp Report
For pricing and valuation, click Comp Report, then hit Send Request.
⏱️ The report usually generates in about one minute.


Step 4: Understand What the AI Is Doing for You
While the report is generating, it’s important to understand what Land Portal’s AI is actually analyzing behind the scenes:
- Finds nearby sold comps with similar acreage
- Prioritizes distance and acreage similarity
- Removes outliers (subdivision lots, overpriced anomalies, underpriced anomalies)
- Weighs comps instead of simply averaging them
- Accounts for wetlands, flood zones, slope, access, and physical attributes
This is the same logic experienced land investors use, just automated and accelerated.
Step 5: Review the Comp Report Summary
Once complete, open the comp report directly inside Land Portal or download it.

Once your AI Comp Report has generated, this is where the real value shows up.
The report is intentionally laid out from high-level overview → valuation → supporting data, so you can understand the property’s value in seconds and then dig deeper only if you need to.
Below is a breakdown of each section in the exact order it appears on the report.
1. Comparative Analysis Overview (Top Section)
- Property image and location
- Acreage
- Physical land attributes (wetlands, FEMA, slope, elevation, road frontage)
- Direct property link inside Land Portal
- Use code (agricultural, rural, etc.)
- Acreage
- Last sale price and date (if available)
This section sets the context for everything that follows.
Before you even look at price, you know what type of land you’re evaluating and where it’s located.

2. Slope Analysis & Slope Estimation
Next, the report moves into slope data, which is especially important for buildability and usability.
You'll see a percentage breakdown of the land that is:
- Flat (0–0.5%)
- Minimal slope (0.5–5%)
- Moderate slope (5–10%)
- Steep (10–15%)
- Extreme (15%+)
This gives you a quick read on how usable the land actually is, without manually analyzing topo maps.

3. Slope Analysis & Slope Estimation
This is the centerpiece of the report. The Cost Estimation section shows:
- Total TLP Estimate Price
- TLP Estimate Per Acre
TLP (The Land Portal) Estimate is Land Portal’s proprietary AI valuation model.
It uses:
- Public record sales
- MLS data
- Weighted comparable analysis
- Automated outlier removal
In most markets, this estimate lands within roughly 10% of true market value, giving you a strong, data-backed pricing baseline.

4. Market Price Per Acre Comparisons
Directly beneath the TLP estimate, you’ll see multiple price-per-acre benchmarks, including:
- Average price per acre (all similar properties)
- Average price per acre (county-wide)
- Average price per acre (ZIP code)
This section helps answer an important question quickly:
Is this property priced below, at, or above its local market?
It also helps you adjust expectations depending on whether you’re pricing aggressively or conservatively.
5. Similar Plots (Comparable Sales Table)
Next comes one of the most powerful parts of the report: the Similar Plots table.
Each comparable includes:
- Acreage
- Distance from subject property
- Total sale price
- Price per acre
- Sale date
- FEMA status
- Road frontage
- Wetlands percentage
- Slope percentage
- Clickable link to full property details

This table allows you to:
- Manually check the AI estimate
- Identify the strongest comps
- Ignore weaker or less relevant sales
Every row is clickable, making it easy to drill deeper without leaving Land Portal.
6. Distribution of Prices (Scatter Plot Visualization)
At the bottom of the report, you’ll see a scatter plot visualization.
This chart shows:
- Each comparable sale as a dot
- Acreage on the X-axis
- Price per acre on the Y-axis
- Your subject property’s estimated price clearly highlighted
- Average price lines (county, ZIP, and similar properties)

This visual makes it easy to:
- Spot outliers instantly
- See pricing trends
- Confirm whether the estimate “makes sense” at a glance
It’s one of the fastest ways to build confidence in your pricing decision.
Step 6: Analyze the Comparable Sales Used
Scroll down to the Similar Plots comp table to see exactly which properties the AI used.
For each comp, you’ll see:
- Acreage
- Sale price
- Price per acre
- Distance from the subject property
- Sale date

Every comp is clickable, allowing you (or a realtor) to open MLS details and inspect each property individually.
This transparency is what makes the report so powerful, it’s not a black box.
Step 7: Validate the Cost Estimation (Optional but Powerful)
Use the Cost Estimate section of the report to test against traditional manual comping using Zillow.
Here’s what happens:
- Zillow comps are pulled manually
- Subdivision outliers are identified
- Older and less relevant comps are filtered out
- Final price ranges are compared
In multiple test markets (Georgia, Tennessee, South Carolina), the AI pricing consistently lands within 3–5% of realistic market value, and often saves hours of manual work.
Step 8: Use the Report for Offers, Pricing, or Realtors
The AI Comp Report isn’t just for internal use.
Investors are using it to:
- Price offers more confidently
- Set realistic resale prices
- Share valuation data with realtors
- Support negotiations with buyers or sellers
Because all links are live, realtors can click directly into the comps and verify the data themselves.
