Why would somebody want to purchase an extra lot?

I live in a subdivision. When I bought the house, it was the last one in the subdivision but they have since built on. I ended up with a huge yard and extra lot. I get calls and texts several times a week of people asking to buy the extra lot. I don’t understand why anyone would want to buy it or how it would work. The land is now between houses. Can you tell me why anyone would want to buy an extra lot in the middle of a neighborhood?

How can i get out of a buyers agreement?

I met with an agent, explained I didn't want a long term agreement, maybe till school was out, as I was only looking at size, areas, prices right now. She said standard was 6 mo. I said I preferred shorter, she said it's what we agree too ( as in she and I make our own terms). I signed the agreement, ask for a copy, she said she would scan then in and email it to me. 10 days later, I'm requesting a copy again. She gave me an excuse for not getting it to me. When I received it, it said 6 mo. Not what I requested. I then questioned her and she said no less than 6 mo as that was what all their office's do. But it was to late to redo the time on it. I don't want to work with her. She will not get my listing, nor will her office. But she says I'm locked in until after the 6 mo. Which means the fall and I can't sell in the fall, it will be off season for selling a family home.

Should I use my friend as my realtor?

I have a good friend that's a realtor. I really like her as a friend, but I'm worried about working with her. I think it could change our dynamic and might ruin the friendship. That said, I also think if I choose a different realtor, she could be so hurt that it ruins the friendship. What should I do?

Can I get a loan without escrow?

I don't like that my loan automatically has this forced escrow account. Can't I just pay my property taxes myself? I'd rather I kept all that money myself so that I can get interest on it rather than just put it in the account that my mortgage company has and it sits there.
