The present paper analyses the dynamics of the Urban Land Market (ULM) along with the horizontal residential complexes from a case study performed in the city of Parnamirim, state of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, from 2000 to 2014. The starting point was that of having the land being a universal good, physically speaking, scarce and non-reproducible. Economically speaking, owning it can represent a value stock and, under this condition, it can be profitable, no matter how it is intended to be used – whether it is for social needs or for speculative ones. In the latter case, facing the possibility of a future commercialization, monetary gains may emerge. In order to check if this is the case with the residential complex lot market, we performed a study which, methodologically speaking, is based on bibliographical research and empirical data. The theoretical view was post-Keynesian since it favors the assets price determination in capitalist economies ruled by the uncertainty of its future. The data were collected through field research in order to verify how the urban land prices would behave. The analysis and interpretation of such data showed that the number of residential lots demanded for further sale – in some selected complexes – is higher than those lots effectively occupied for residential use and/or occupation. From this point it is suggested that the owning of land has acted as a value stock, especially by the expectation of a probable market and monetary gain to be rendered in a given time in the future.
