Answers To Your Questions
FAQ’s
We hope the following information will help answer any questions you might have about our company and services. However, if you happen to have some additional questions for us, please feel free to reach out to us anytime!
Is there any cost or obligation for requesting an offer for my land?
No, there is absolutely zero cost or obligation for requesting an offer for your land. We certainly hope we can come to terms with you and purchase your land, but if not, you don’t owe us anything. Furthermore, we will never use any high pressure sales tactics to try and convince you to sell to us. We will give you time to consider your options and will never pressure you to sell.
How fast (or slow) can you close?
Most of our transactions close in about 30 days. However, if you need to close sooner, we can close in as little as 14 days when needed.
We can also delay the close date if that would be helpful to you. If a seller is participating in a 1031 exchange, we can add a provision that allows the seller the option to extend the close date by up to 90 days.
How long does it take to receive an offer?
After you submit your offer request, we'll immediately begin reviewing your land details and doing our due diligence. If a visit to your property is not required for us to make a decision, we can typically provide you with an offer within 72 hours. If a visit is required, we will arrange an appointment with you at your earliest convenience and provide you with our offer within 72 hours of our visit.
Why is selling to Land People better than listing with an agent or for sale by owner?
Many people underestimate just how much time, money, and hassle go into selling land either with a Realtor or by owner. After doing any needed landscaping and cleanup to better showcase your property, you're then expected to allow numerous strangers on your land for showings, wait several months for a potential buyer to finally come along, and then just hope the buyer's financing doesn't fall through at the last minute.
When you sell to Land People, you don't have to worry about any of these things. We make the selling process quick and stress free so that you can skip all of the time, hassle, and expense of listing your land by owner or with an agent. We also cover all of the closing costs, and you don't have to pay any real estate commission either.
Will you buy my land “as is”
Yes, we will buy your land in any condition, so you don't have to worry about clean up, clearing the land, landscaping, etc.
What if I have overdue property taxes or a lien against my land?
We can still purchase your land even if you have overdue property taxes and liens against it. However, we will need to pay off these debts at closing, and the cost to resolve these debts will come from your net proceeds. If you are aware of overdue property taxes and liens against your land, it is important to disclose this information upfront even though they will likely be discovered when the title company runs a the title search. Certain liens could result in a delay in closing.
Can you help with probate and inherited property issues?
Yes, with the help of our title specialists and legal partners, we can help resolve probate problems and other challenging title issues so that you can get your land sold in a timely manner.
What contract forms do you use when purchasing land?
We use forms that are published by the Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC). These forms help ensure the best interests of both the seller and the buyer are fully protected in the real estate transaction.
What responsibilities do I have as the seller in the transaction?
Your responsibilities as the seller in the transaction are very minimal. After signing the sales contract, your main responsibility is to simply provide the title company with the basic information they need to close. If you have a loan on the property, this would include providing the title company with your loan number and the best contact info for your lender.
Can I use the title company of my choice to close?
Yes, we can use the title company of your choice to close. If you do not have a preferred title company, we work with several very reputable local title companies who can help facilitate the closing.
What if I can’t sign closing docs in person at the title company?
No, there is absolutely zero cost or obligation for requesting an offer for your land. We certainly hope we can come to terms with you and purchase your land, but if not, you don’t owe us anything. Furthermore, we will never use any high pressure sales tactics to try and convince you to sell to us. We will give you time to consider your options and will never pressure you to sell.
Do you make an offer on every offer request you receive?
While we do make an offer on most properties we receive an offer request for, there are some situations where we don't feel a particular piece of property is a good fit for us after visiting it in person and researching more about it. In those situations, we may choose not to make an offer to purchase a particular piece of property.
How can I be sure I will actually get my money after signing closing docs?
We work with reputable, local title companies to handle closings just like in any traditional real estate transaction. You can pick the title company of your choice or ask us to select a good title company that we have worked with in the past. The title company will be an independent third party working on your behalf, and you can contact them anytime with any questions you might have. Once both sides have signed the required closing documents, our funds to purchase your property will be released to you. You can choose to receive the funds either by check or wire transfer.
