Up in Vermont you can get timberland for $1-$3k acre. After you account for the lumber the dirt looks like it has negative value.

Sure, raw land is a liability to a degree - folks could go and hurt themselves on it and sue you, etc.

Tax liability as well. Holding land and doing nothing with it costs money.
