The Transaction
Fair market. No negotiation. Done.
URBAL pays the county-appraised fair market value for the qualifying parcel. The price is set at qualification and does not change. At raise certification, the transaction closes — no drawn-out rezoning battles, no contingency on a third-party buyer, no negotiation. URBAL handles all entitlement, Form-Based Code approvals, and pre-construction coordination. The seller's obligation ends at closing.

Local Economic Catalyst
Your land triggers $5B of local investment.
The full $5B raise is released into the county's construction economy the moment the raise closes. The bank managing the escrow is selected by the county — competing institutions bid for the right to manage the largest single construction fund in most counties' history. Surrounding parcels typically rise with the announcement. Your land sale enables all of it.

$100M for Children
Every child in your county gets a 529 account. Before a stone is cut.
On Labor Day, URBAL announces the winning county. $100M in 529 custodial education accounts is divided equally across every child currently enrolled in county public schools. The accounts go to the children and families — not to the county government. Your land sale is what makes this possible.
The Legacy
Not a warehouse. Not a subdivision. Five centuries.
CNC-machined Bedford Indiana limestone. Tongue-and-groove joints, no mortar. A structural design life of 500 years — not a marketing claim, but what limestone with no mortar joint achieves. Mortar degrades. The joint does not. 25,000 people will live on your land. Their children's children's children will too. The town is car-free, stone, and built to outlast everything that currently surrounds it.
25,000 residents
A full community. Dense enough for culture. Small enough for belonging.

The full process.
Site requirements
Site requirements
Greenfield. ~1 square mile. County-controlled.
The qualifying parcel is a contiguous greenfield site of approximately 1 square mile (640 acres) within a county that has cleared the URBAL qualification process. The land must be free of major environmental encumbrances and reasonably flat. URBAL does not require existing infrastructure — roads, utilities, and town services are built as part of the $5B construction plan. Brownfield sites and existing developed parcels are not qualifying.
Letter of Intent + county qualification
LOI is non-binding. Qualification is the county's process.
The first step is a Letter of Intent between the landowner and URBAL — non-binding, establishing the parcel boundaries and the basis for the county appraisal. County qualification runs in parallel: the county submits its candidacy for the Bunch site, and if selected, proceeds through URBAL's diligence process. The landowner is not a party to the county qualification — it runs independently. The LOI converts to a binding purchase agreement only after the county is confirmed as the winning site.
County appraisal — the price is set once
No negotiation after LOI.
URBAL uses the county-ordered independent appraisal to set the purchase price. The appraisal reflects fair market value for the raw agricultural or greenfield land as it stands — not for the developed town it will become. The price set at the LOI stage does not change at closing. There are no renegotiation provisions, no earn-outs, and no contingencies tied to URBAL's financial performance. The seller knows the number before the raise starts.
What happens during the raise
12 months. Landowner is not party to raise activity.
After county selection, URBAL runs 12 consecutive monthly raises over the following year. The landowner's purchase agreement is in effect but the transaction does not close during this period. The landowner continues to hold and use the land. At raise close on Labor Day — when all 12 raises independently clear $5B each — the transaction closes, the payment is made, and construction begins.
What happens if the raise doesn't close
Purchase agreement terminates. No transaction. No liability.
If any of the 12 raises fails to reach its threshold, all 12 escrows refund to pledgers, and the purchase agreement between URBAL and the landowner terminates without penalty to either party. The county agreement also terminates. The landowner retains the parcel. There is no break fee, no deposit forfeited, and no obligation to re-enter any future raise. URBAL begins a new raise cycle with a different county selection process.
What URBAL builds on your land
One square mile. Stone. Car-free. 500-year design life.
A complete URBAL town: 12 neighborhood units (URBs), each 720×720 ft, built in four classical typologies. An outer perimeter wall of 264 unique stone facades — each section designed by a different classically-trained architect. An inner wall ring holding 22 clinic buildings and 100 physician LLCs. 24 named Spice Tray corridors of third-place businesses, cafés, arts, and culture. A car-free surface — no road grid. An overhead gondola network connecting the town to the rest of the Bunch. Everything constructed in CNC-machined Bedford Indiana limestone, no mortar. Designed to stand 500 years.
