Whenever I buy land, I get annoyed by how frustrating the process is. The problems I see are that people's descriptions are often inaccurate and it takes time (and often a TP) to find out things like:

- Am I buying the land outright or renting it?
- Is the land really "waterfront" or "in a quiet residential sim" or "on flat green land" etc?
- Is there a covenant and what are the basics (e.g. gothic theme only)?

I would like to see this information available in the search listings and be able to narrow my search by these parameters. For example, if I am looking for a property to "buy" (not rent) on "snow terrain" in a "non-residential" sim, setting those terms would help me get what I want faster.

At the moment, there is a lot of land for sale with inaccurate descriptions and it's very hard to find what you want and I am sure many people get bored of looking and give up - or get impatient and make the wrong decision which they regret later!

Does anyone else have any ideas for improving the way land sale listings work?
