The Land Buying & Selling Event is a curated, in-person event created for people involved in buying, selling, investing in, developing, building on, or providing professional services related to land.
Organized by G1 Lands, the event brings landowners, buyers, investors, developers, builders, and land professionals into one focused environment.
It is not a general real estate expo.
The event is built specifically around land opportunities, land education, development and planning considerations, professional connections, and direct conversations between people involved in land-related decisions.
Why Was the Land Buying & Selling Event Created?
Land transactions can be more complex than conventional residential real estate.
A person buying a house can usually evaluate the building, neighbourhood, price, condition, and financing. A land buyer may also need to consider:
Current zoning
Official Plan policies
Access and road frontage
Municipal or private servicing
Environmental conditions
Conservation authority requirements
Existing permissions
Development potential
Planning and approval processes
Financing options
Legal considerations
Long-term intended use
Landowners also face challenges when preparing to sell. They may not know how to explain the property’s planning context, organize the available information, identify suitable buyers, or position the land for investors, builders, developers, or end users.
The Land Buying & Selling Event was created to bring these different parts of the land market together.
What Happens at the Event?
The structure of each event may vary, but the Land Buying & Selling Event is generally built around four areas: land opportunities, education, professional connections, and networking.
Land Opportunities
Attendees may learn about selected land and development opportunities being presented or marketed through the G1 Lands ecosystem.
These may include:
Residential land
Agricultural land
Commercial land
Industrial land
Development land
Mixed-use opportunities
Land banking opportunities
Joint venture opportunities
Selected commercial real estate opportunities
The availability and type of opportunities will vary by event. Every property should be evaluated independently, and any zoning, planning, servicing, approval, or development information should be verified before a decision is made.
Land Education
The event provides an opportunity to learn about subjects that can influence land decisions.
Topics may include:
The difference between zoning and development approval
Official Plans and municipal planning context
Due diligence before purchasing land
Legal review and transaction structure
Financing land acquisitions
Servicing, frontage, and access
Environmental and conservation considerations
Development processes
Landowner preparation
Buyer and seller expectations
The purpose is not to promise an outcome. It is to help attendees understand the types of questions that should be asked before buying, selling, financing, developing, or marketing land.
Professional Connections
Land decisions often involve several professionals.
Depending on the property and the intended use, a buyer or landowner may need to speak with:
Real estate professionals
Lawyers
Mortgage and financing professionals
Planners
Surveyors
Engineers
Architects
Environmental consultants
Accountants
Builders
Developers
Construction and servicing professionals
The event creates a setting where attendees can meet businesses and professionals involved in different parts of the land decision-making process.
Participation by a professional, speaker, exhibitor, or sponsor does not constitute a guarantee or endorsement of their services. Attendees remain responsible for reviewing qualifications and obtaining advice appropriate to their circumstances.
Land-Focused Networking
The event also provides space for direct conversations.
A landowner may meet a potential buyer. A builder may connect with a land source. An investor may meet a professional who can help review an opportunity. A developer may learn about a property or relationship relevant to a future project.
Not every conversation results in a transaction, but focused networking can help people better understand the market, clarify their requirements, and identify the next appropriate step.
Who Is the Event For?
The Land Buying & Selling Event serves several groups within the land ecosystem.
Land Buyers and Investors
The event may be relevant for people looking to:
Purchase land in Ontario
Explore development land
Review agricultural or rural properties
Consider land banking opportunities
Find land for a future home or business
Understand land due diligence
Meet professionals involved in land transactions
Buyers should come prepared with a general location preference, budget range, intended use, and timeline. These details make it easier to have useful conversations.
Landowners and Sellers
The event may also be useful for landowners who:
Are considering selling land
Own inherited land
Hold agricultural or development-potential property
Need better exposure to land-focused buyers
Want to understand what information buyers may request
Are unsure how to position their property
Want to speak with the G1 Lands team
Landowners should avoid assuming that future development, rezoning, severance, or higher-density use will be approved. Those possibilities require proper verification and, where applicable, professional and municipal review.
Developers and Builders
Developers and builders may attend to:
Explore acquisition opportunities
Meet landowners
Review possible project locations
Connect with investors and professionals
Learn about regional land activity
Discuss construction and development considerations
The event can support early-stage conversations, but it does not replace detailed feasibility analysis, planning review, financing assessment, or legal due diligence.
Land and Development Professionals
The event provides a focused audience for businesses whose services support landowners, buyers, investors, developers, and builders.
This may include lawyers, planners, surveyors, engineers, mortgage professionals, lenders, accountants, architects, environmental consultants, builders, and other industry participants.
Professionals may participate as attendees, exhibitors, sponsors, speakers, or partners, depending on the opportunities available for each event.
How Is This Different From a General Real Estate Event?
Most real estate events cover a broad range of topics, including residential sales, mortgages, renovations, property management, or general investing.
The Land Buying & Selling Event has a narrower focus.
Its central subject is land.
That means the conversations are more likely to address:
How land is evaluated
What buyers should investigate
How landowners can prepare to sell
How zoning and Official Plans affect decisions
What development potential actually means
Which professionals may be needed
How buyers, sellers, developers, builders, and investors connect
This focus helps create a more relevant environment for people with specific land-related goals.
Does the Event Provide Legal, Financial or Planning Advice?
No.
The Land Buying & Selling Event is an educational, networking, marketing, and opportunity-focused event. It does not provide legal, financial, tax, engineering, surveying, investment, or municipal planning advice.
Speakers and participating professionals may share general information within their respective fields. Attendees should obtain independent professional advice based on their own property, transaction, financial position, and objectives.
The event also does not guarantee:
A land sale
A buyer match
An investment return
A development approval
A rezoning
A severance
A future property value
A planning outcome
The purpose is to create access to information, opportunities, and relevant conversations—not to promise a particular result.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Land Buying & Selling Event only for experienced investors?
No. The event can be useful for experienced participants as well as people beginning to explore land. First-time buyers and landowners should come prepared to learn, ask questions, and speak with appropriate professionals before making decisions.
Can I attend if I have land to sell?
Yes. Landowners and sellers are part of the event’s core audience. You can attend to understand the selling process, meet land-focused participants, and discuss your property with the G1 Lands team.
Can I attend if I am looking to buy land?
Yes. Buyers can attend to learn about the land market, review available opportunities where presented, meet relevant professionals, and discuss their buying requirements.
Are properties sold directly at the event?
The event may introduce land opportunities and support buyer-seller conversations, but transactions are not guaranteed. Property decisions normally require further discussion, documentation, verification, due diligence, and applicable professional review.
Can professionals exhibit at the event?
Participation opportunities may be available for land-related businesses and professionals. This can include exhibitors, sponsors, speakers, and strategic partners. Availability and participation terms should be confirmed directly with the event team.
Is development potential the same as development approval?
No. Development potential describes a possible future use or planning opportunity. It does not mean a project has been approved. Zoning, Official Plan policies, servicing, technical studies, municipal review, and other requirements may affect what can ultimately be permitted.
Final Takeaway
The Land Buying & Selling Event provides a focused environment where Ontario’s land community can connect around opportunities, education, professional knowledge, and direct conversations.
It is designed for people who recognize that land decisions require more than a property listing. They require clear information, appropriate due diligence, the right professional input, and conversations with people who understand land.
Whether you are looking to buy land, sell land, explore development opportunities, meet professionals, or become part of the wider land ecosystem, the event provides a focused place to begin.
