FAQs
What documents do I need to sell my land?
Most of the information we need on the property you are looking to sell is included in our form.
Just submit this form to us and we will send you a quote!
Do you buy the property or will you just be listing the land I want to sell?
We are not brokers – we actually buy land.
If you sell your land to us, you will not deal with middlemen or brokers, we buy directly from you!
Occasionally, we are asked whether we can list a parcel for someone else.
Because we are not real estate agents, we cannot list your parcel.
We are, however, happy to send you a quote for the price at which we will buy the property.
How do I sell land without a realtor?
Using a realtor to sell land is often a great idea since their expertise and resources can help you market your land and find the right buyer.
However, in some cases this may not always be the best option.
Perhaps none of the local realtors are experts in vacant land.
Or perhaps your property’s listing price is too low to make it worth a realtor’s time.
In these instances, your best option may be to sell the property yourself directly to a buyer.
One upside of this is that you will avoid paying the typical agent’s commission of 6-10% of the purchase price.
Furthermore, selling your property yourself doesn’t need to be complicated.
There are a number of listing sites where you can post your property as For Sale By Owner (Zillow being the largest).
You can also send letters to surrounding property owners or put up a “for sale by owner” sign on the land.
Finally, you can try to sell to a land investor, like us.
Just keep in mind that land investors will offer below-market prices in exchange for a fast closing, so you should weigh the pros and cons of selling your land this way.
Do you buy houses?
No, at this time we do not buy houses.
We are vacant land specialists and we try to stick with what we know in order to ensure we are providing the most value to our buyers.
If you do have a house you want to sell, we would recommend contacting a local real estate agent to see if they can list the property for you.
Do I need a lawyer to sell my land to you?
Generally, no, unless you want one.
However, we are happy to work with your lawyer if you would like.
Please just note that we do not factor a lawyer’s fee into our initial offer price.
How do you determine the fair market price of my property?
We will value the land you want to sell by looking at county or municipal assessment information, local sales comparables, unique land features and local market information.
Our price will incorporate the costs we incur to purchase the property and the minimum profit we expect to receive when we sell the parcel ourselves.
As land investors, we do purchase properties below market value.
However, in exchange, we offer a fast, hassle-free closing process and offer to pay for all closing costs.
Is the offer price negotiable?
When we provide a final quote, we will have done a thorough review of the property and will typically not be able to offer more.
There is a certain profit minimum on any transaction that we must meet for it to be worth the process of purchasing, marketing and selling the land.
We do our best to come up with a reasonable offer based on our assessment of the market value and the minimum profit margin that we expect to make.
Please be advised that you will likely be able to get a higher price if you use a real estate agent.
In certain areas, land also moves slowly, so depending on the location and property characteristics, it could take months (or even years) to sell your parcel.
We have found that our offers are of most value to owners of properties in markets where sales are slow and demand is low.
How is the assessed value of my property related to the price you quote?
We do look at the assessed value of your property, but it is not heavily weighted in our assessment of your property’s market value.
Why is the assessed value a poor way to determine market value?
There are a few reasons:
• Assessed values are typically re-evaluated only once a year and can lag behind market trends.
• Assessed values are often based on voluntary reporting of sales prices and property characteristics, so there can be errors in the data used to determine the property value for assessment purposes.
• Some counties have caps on annual increases in the assessed value, which decouples the assessed value from the true market value of the land.
• Some counties will only reassess the property after a sale has been made. This can mean that some properties’ assessed value will not have changed in 15 or more years.
• When the assessed value is based on prior sales data, a below-market sale (or above-market sale) can skew the assessed value in either direction.
For all of these reasons and more, we prefer to do our own market research based on the local sales comparables and known property characteristics in order to determine our estimate of the land’s market value.
How much will I pay in closing costs if I were to sell my land to you?
We cover all closing costs when you sell your property to us!
How long does it take to close on land?
A typical closing can take about four weeks, although it will vary depending on several factors, including:
• how complicated the chain of title is
• how busy the title company is
• if any unforeseen issues come up during the buyer’s due diligence
What kinds of properties do you buy?
We buy vacant land anywhere in the US of any size or condition.
Please note that we do not typically purchase properties with improvements on them.
We are specialists in vacant land and try to stay within the realm that we know.
In addition, we are not experts in farmland or timberland and so we tend to purchase lots that are best suited for residential or recreational uses.
What if I don’t know my property’s dimensions?
That’s fine, we can always use Google Maps or LandID to approximate the parcel dimensions.
What due diligence checks do you complete?
We check for the following, but not exclusive, list of due diligence items:
• Access (legal and physical)
• Back taxes
• HOA information
• Ownership
• Wetlands and flood zones
• Zoning
• Utilities
What if title isn’t clear or there are liens on my land?
We will conduct our own research to verify if there are any liens or encumbrances on the property you want to sell.
We will then work with our title company to see what can be done to clear title on your land.
Each property is a bit different and sometimes we can help you find the resources you need to fix any title issues on the parcel you want to sell.
In other instances, we will need to pass on the property.
What if my property is in a flood zone?
We do sometimes purchase properties in Special Hazard Flood Zones.
It just depends on the other property characteristics as we always look at a parcel holistically.
For example, if a parcel is a waterfront property, we may have already assumed that the property will be in a Special Flood Hazard Area.
What if my property has wetlands on it?
Generally, we do not purchase parcels with wetlands on them.
However, if the lot is only partially covered, we may still consider purchasing it, depending on the other property characteristics.
The reason we do not typically purchase properties with wetlands on them is that it is very difficult to build on a federally-designated wetland since federal wetlands are protected by various laws and federal agencies.
In some circumstances, if the parcel is in a state-designated wetland, wetland check-zone or cut-through, we will consider purchasing it under the right circumstances depending on the specific state or local regulations involved.
If the state offers to complete a wetlands delineation, which determines whether there are wetlands on the property, we will ask that this be completed before purchasing the land.
Do you pay taxes if I sell my land to you?
We can pay any back taxes for you and work this into the negotiated offer on the property you want to sell.
If the amount owed is minimal, we can simply cover the cost for you.
In other situations, we can pay the amount owed and then deduct the back taxes from the final sales price on the parcel you want to sell.
Either way, you will not have to pay anything out-of-pocket.
The amount of taxes that we are able to pay depends on several factors, including the other characteristics of the property, the closing costs involved, the price of the property and our estimation of the market value.
What if my property does not have legal access?
We generally only purchase properties with legal access; however, as with everything else, we consider all aspects of the property before making a decision on whether to buy.
We generally look for one of the following factors:
• The property fronts and has access from a public road (the road does not need to be publicly maintained).
• The parcel is part of a legal subdivision with legally platted roads recorded on a plat map in the County Recorder’s office.
• The property fronts a private road with right of use granted to the parcel owner. This right of use must be stipulated in the deed or other recorded documents (such as HOA documents or an access easement).
What do I have to do if I want to sell my land to you and the property is on an HOA?
We do purchase properties that are located in HOAs.
Please just send us the information on the HOA, including
• covenants
• by-laws
• other regulations
• annual dues
• back dues owed
• additional fees owed at sale (i.e. capital improvement fees, resale packet fees, etc)
What happens if one of the original owners has passed away?
It depends on whether the property has gone through probate or the deed says joint tenants with rights of survivorship.
Generally speaking, if the deed granted title to all owners as joint tenants with rights of survivorship, then we should have no problem purchasing the parcel so long as we can record a copy of the death certificate.
Unfortunately, if joint tenancy cannot be established, it is likely the property will need to go through probate before the surviving owner can sell the land.
We do not typically take the property through probate for you and this must be done before you sell your land to us.
In some circumstances, sellers may believe they have inherited the property after the original owner has passed away.
Again, the property will usually need to go through probate in the county in which the property is located before you can sell your land to us, even if a will is present and clearly indicates that you are the heir.
If you are unsure of the status of your property, we can take a look in more detail once you submit your property.
What if I don’t have a copy of the deed?
No problem! We can often find a copy of your deed in the county or municipal records.
Does the zoning designation on my land matter?
Typically no, we buy properties with all kinds of zoning designations.
Most of the properties that we purchase have the following kinds of land use designations: residential, agricultural, open space, etc.
When we complete our due diligence, we check the local zoning ordinance for the following, but not exclusive, list:
• allowable uses
• minimum lot size
• setbacks
• road frontage requirements
• lot coverage ratio
• mobile home restrictions
Generally, zoning doesn’t affect whether we purchase a property or not, but there are some unique circumstances that may influence our pricing.
Does my land need to have utilities connected to it?
No! We buy properties without utility connections all the time.
However, if the property does not have the potential for connection to a public sewer, we will ask if a perc test has ever been done on the property.
In some rare circumstances, a property may not be eligible for a well permit.
In these cases, we will evaluate whether we would like to purchase based on other property characteristics.
If you are uncertain about whether a well can be drilled on your land, you can use LandID to look up whether there are wells in the surrounding area.
Does a perc test need to have been done on my property?
If there is no public sewer in the area, we will ask if you have a copy of a perc test.
We do not purchase properties that have a failed perc test, but we do purchase land that has never had a perc test done.
For reference, a perc test is a test of the water absorption rate of the soil.
This test must be done before someone applies for a septic permit, and the test must pass the county or state’s stipulated guidelines in order to receive approval for a septic permit.
Do you need to have mineral rights to the property in order to sell my land?
No, we generally assume that we are only purchasing the surface rights to a property when we purchase.
If you are unsure about whether you have mineral rights or you know that the property will not be conveyed with mineral rights, please still go ahead and submit your property to us.
Please also note that we do not pay extra for mineral rights, but each situation is unique so submit all of the information that you have.
Do you need to have water rights to the property in order to sell my land?
Typically, no; however, the lack of water rights can affect our offer pricing, depending on the state.
Certain states exempt domestic wells from the water rights regime and, in those states, water rights do not affect our price much.
What will you do with my property if I decide to sell my land to you?
Our proprietary algorithm decides whether to hold the land you want to sell to us in our personal portfolio or list the property based on current and historical market data.
This data includes the assessed value, market value (county), recent comps, historical comps, access, buildability, macro and microeconomic trends, annual property taxes, local real estate market conditions and, of course, our cost basis.
