Paved road frontage is worth the most. Gravel access is common and usually fine. Landlocked land with no legal access sells for much less until an easement is secured.
Power at the property line, public water or a working well, and a septic system or approved soil test all raise value, because a buyer avoids those costs.
Small parcels usually sell for more per acre. Large tracts sell for less per acre, even though the total price is higher.
Land near a town, highway or lake is usually worth more than land far from services in the same county.
Zoning decides what can be built. A house, barn or outbuildings add value on top of the land itself, depending on condition.
Unpaid property taxes, mortgages and liens are paid off at closing, so they reduce what you take home.

Start with the USDA state average for your land type using the estimator on this page. Then look at recent sales of similar parcels in your county, check the county assessor's records, or get a written cash offer from a land buyer. A licensed appraiser can give you a formal appraisal.
An estimator gives a rough range, not an exact value. It uses statewide averages, so it cannot see your road access, utilities, exact location, parcel size or buildings. Treat it as a starting point. A written offer or an appraisal reflects your actual property.
