Buy building land in the canton of Basel-Landschaft: undeveloped plots

In the canton of Basel-Landschaft, the official geodata analysed show 2'488 undeveloped plots in building zones across 86 municipalities (data retrieved 11.11.2026).

Of these, 1'455 plots carry the mark «Aerial image checked: nothing noticeable». On the evaluated aerial image (swisstopo, flight year 2024), no building and no installation was detected on the plot (except small structures under 12 m²), and no building of 12 m² or more is recorded in the official cadastral survey (status 29.10.2026). Trees and shrubs are possible; in this evaluation, vegetation does not lead to the classification «to be clarified on site». The check is automatic, on our own infrastructure. Every plot is checked on the aerial image and in the official cadastral survey. In two randomly drawn samples of 150 plots each, separate image evaluations supported the finding in 86 to 95 % of cases, depending on the counting method (status 04.11.2026; method: bauland-scout.ch/en/methode.html). The mark is an indicative value and does not replace a site visit or information from the building authority.

Basel-Landschaft, with Liestal as its capital, links the suburban municipalities of the lower Baselbiet with the Jura valleys further up, along the Ergolz and the Birs or in the Laufental. The language is German. Building zones are found in the urban fringe as well as in the villages of the side valleys. For a building land search in the canton of Basel-Landschaft, Bauland-Scout uses cadastral survey and zoning data from geodienste.ch at plot level. You can find building land among undeveloped plots identified in the official data we analyse, whether or not they are advertised. Where there are enough sales, the dossier includes a price guide as an average from the cantonal land price statistics. Questions about building rules go to the municipal building authority, questions about ownership to the land registry office.

The pages for individual municipalities are in German.

Official federal map viewer

Bauland-Scout brings together official geodata and filters out the undeveloped building zones. It does not replace the cantonal geoportal (GIS) or the PLR cadastre: legally binding extracts, the zoning plan and certified cadastral extracts (cadastral surveyor or land registry office) are available from the official authorities.
