This study aims discussing the relationships between land property, urban voids, rent of land and urban space organization in the municipality of Serra, Greater Vitória Metropolitan Area (RMGV), ES, Brazil. The general objective is to understand how private land property control, land valorization and rent of land by landowners in rural and urban areas result in the organization of the urban space, mainly in the Municipality of Serra. Based on a bibliographical review and primary data collection from sources such as Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), National Institute for Colonization and Agrarian Reform (INCRA), Serra Municipal Goverment (PMS) and Jones dos Santos Neves Institute, we seek to understand aspects inherent to landowning concentrations, urban growth (population growth, number of land subdivisions and residential complexes), formation of urban voids and a few possible strategies of rent of land by landowners in Serra. Also, in order to understand these questions in-depth, we carried out a case study on rural and urban land transformations on Guaxindiba Farm. It is a farm located in the urban area of Serra since 1978. It is located between Morada de Laranjeiras and Manguinhos neighborhoods and had much of its land urbanized, but it still has a large remaining area — one of the largest urban voids in Serra — which is registered as rural real estate. We concluded that rentiers’ interests and appropriation strategies for the largest possible rent of land by landowners over land properties affect the urban space in several different ways. One of these ways is land property retention in the form of urban voids for money reserve. This process causes access to be selective, only to those who can afford to pay for the rent of land. Also, this makes the municipality have higher expenditure on broadening and maintaining the urban infrastructure. This process becomes even more complex when there is high land-owning concentrations in rural or urban areas, such as in case of Serra. This allows a handful of people to have stronger power to interfere in different ways in the urban expansion processes due to their rentiers’ interests and expected rent of land.
