Offers & Pricing
About Your Cash Offer
How fast can I get a cash offer?
In most cases we deliver a fair, no-obligation cash offer within 24 hours of receiving your property details. Complex parcels may take a little longer, but we'll always keep you posted.
How do you decide what to offer?
We look at recent comparable sales in your area, the parcel's size and access, zoning and permitted use, terrain, and current local market demand. We're always happy to walk you through exactly how we reached the number.
Is there any cost to get an offer?
None at all. Requesting an offer is 100% free with no obligation whatsoever. You only move forward if the number works for you.
Am I obligated to accept the offer?
Absolutely not. There's zero obligation and zero pressure. If our offer isn't the right fit, you're free to walk away - no hard feelings.
Fees, Closing & Payment
The Money Side of Things
Are there any fees or commissions?
No. You pay no agent commissions and no listing fees, and we cover the standard closing costs. The cash offer we make is the amount you walk away with.
What if my land has back taxes or liens?
That's no problem at all. We regularly buy land with back taxes, liens, or title issues. The title company sorts these out at closing - often it's the very reason sellers are relieved to work with us.
Do I need a survey or to clean up the property?
No. We buy land completely as-is. There's nothing for you to fix, clear, survey, or prepare - we handle the due diligence on our end.
Who handles the closing and paperwork?
A licensed, reputable title company or closing attorney manages the entire closing. This keeps the transaction secure, legitimate, and properly recorded - protecting both you and us.
How quickly can we close, and how do I get paid?
Often in as little as 7 days once title is clear - or later if you prefer. At closing you receive your funds by check or wire transfer, whichever you choose.
What if I own the land with other people?
Shared or inherited ownership is common and completely workable. All owners on title will simply need to agree to the sale and sign at closing. We can help coordinate the details.
