Holding Onto Land You Don't Use?

Frequently Asked Questions

What paperwork do I need to provide?

Whatever you have — a tax bill, deed, or just the APN/parcel number. If you don't have any of that, give us the county and a rough location and we'll find it.

What happens at closing?

A licensed title company prepares the deed and settlement statement, you sign (in person or electronically), and funds are wired to your account. No drama.

I don't have a survey. Is that a problem?

Nope. We work from county records and our own research. If closing requires a survey, that's our cost, not yours.

What kinds of land do you buy?

Vacant residential lots, rural acreage, farmland, timber tracts, desert and mountain parcels, infill city lots, inherited parcels, and tax-delinquent land — in all 50 states.

How fast can you actually close?

Seven to fourteen days is typical once we have a signed agreement. In a hurry? We've closed faster. Need to wait for probate or family decisions? We'll wait as long as you need.
