If you buy forest or agricultural land you are pretty safe. The worst thing that can happen in civilized places is that a big entity forcefully buys it away from you for "reasons" and you don't get as much profit as you would like, but nonetheless then you can just buy more land somewhere else. Owning developed land is just a liability in many places since you've got to pay taxes and all kind of annual fees. It's business at that point and not just owning land (your business instincts don't have to be nearly as good when dealing with forest and agricultural land).
