Frequently Asked Questions About Selling Your Land

You'll have a written cash offer within 24 hours of submitting the form. If you accept, most sales close within 2–4 weeks — the time it takes the title company to complete the title search and prepare the closing documents.

No. There are no agent commissions, no listing fees, and no hidden charges — and we pay the standard closing costs. The offer you accept is the amount you receive at closing.

We research your specific parcel: county records, closed sales of comparable land nearby, road access, lot shape and usability, flood zones and wetlands, and any taxes owed. The offer is based on what we could realistically resell the land for, minus our costs and margin. It's a researched number, not a mass-mail formula.

No, and we'd rather tell you that plainly. We buy below full retail because we pay cash, buy as-is, cover the closing costs, and take on the risk and holding costs of reselling. What you trade in price, you get back in speed, certainty, and zero fees. If getting top dollar matters more than time, listing with an agent may serve you better — we'll tell you that too.

Yes. Requesting an offer costs nothing and commits you to nothing. If the number doesn't work for you, simply decline — no follow-up pressure, no repeated calls.

We research your property and email you a written cash offer, usually within 24 hours. That's it — no spam, and we never share your information with anyone else.

A licensed title company or closing attorney in your property's state. They hold all funds in escrow, run the title search, and pay you directly at closing. Money never passes through our hands to you informally — and you should never wire money to us or anyone else to sell your land.

Fair question — land owners get plenty of sketchy mail. Here's what should reassure you about any buyer, including us: everything is in writing; an independent, licensed title company holds the funds and records the deed; you never pay anything upfront; and you're free to have your own attorney review every document before you sign.

Yes. Most of our sellers have never visited the property they're selling. The entire sale is handled by email and mail, the deed can be notarized wherever you are — including at U.S. embassies abroad — and funds are sent by check or wire.

Usually just a government-issued ID and your parcel information — the parcel or APN number from a tax bill is plenty, and we can look up the rest from county records. You do not need a survey, an appraisal, or photos. The how it works page walks through the whole process.

By check or bank wire, sent by the title company at closing. You choose which.

Yes — inherited parcels are some of the most common land we buy. If the estate hasn't been fully settled, the title company will identify exactly which documents are needed, and in many cases it's simpler than families fear. Mention the inheritance in the form and we'll factor it in from the start.

Yes. Back taxes are paid out of the sale proceeds at closing — you don't pay them out of pocket beforehand. Even if the county has started tax-sale proceedings, it's often still possible to sell first, so reach out sooner rather than later.

Often, yes. Lack of access affects what we can offer, but it rarely makes a parcel unsellable to us. The same goes for odd-shaped lots, wetlands, and steep terrain — describe the situation in the form and we'll research it.

Usually, yes. Unpaid association dues and assessments are handled like back taxes — settled from the sale proceeds at closing rather than out of your pocket.

Every owner named on the deed signs the closing documents — and they can each sign separately, wherever they live, by mail with a local notary. We coordinate multi-owner closings regularly; just note the co-owners in the form.
