Land you’re paying taxes on and never visit.
Family tracts split between six heirs. A lot bought in 1994 for a house that never got built. Timber that was cut and never replanted. Landlocked acreage no agent will list because the commission isn’t worth the phone calls. That’s the land we buy.
What we buy, and what usually worries people about it
Family and heirs' land
Several owners, one of whom can't be found. We're used to it — we'll work with a probate attorney and we don't need everyone in the same room, or the same state.
Timber and cutover
Standing pine, hardwood bottom, or ground that was clear-cut and left. We price the dirt and the timber separately and show you both lines.
No access, no survey
Landlocked, easement in question, boundaries last drawn in 1968. We'll research access ourselves and buy subject to what we find — you don't pay for a survey to get an offer.
Back taxes and liens
Owed taxes come out of proceeds at closing, not out of your pocket beforehand. Tax-sale deadlines are a reason to call sooner, not a reason not to call.
Lakefront and near-lake
Corps of Engineers line, buffer rules, shared docks, septic questions. Lanier-adjacent land has its own rulebook and we already read it.
Leftover lots
One or two lots left in an old subdivision, an odd remnant behind a commercial strip, a strip taken by a road widening. Small and awkward is fine.
Six fields. Nothing you need a filing cabinet for.
Approximate is fine everywhere. If you know the parcel number, great; if you only know “about twelve acres off Thompson Bridge,” that’s enough for us to find it.
We answer every submission ourselves, usually the same day, and always within one business day.
Land questions we get every week
How do you price land without a survey?+
County GIS and the recorded plat give us acreage and boundaries close enough to price. We adjust for what a survey might change, tell you that assumption out loud, and order the survey ourselves if we go under contract.
Will you pay what an agent would list it for?+
Usually not, and we won't pretend otherwise. You're trading some price for speed, certainty and no commission, no survey bill, no months of showings on a tract that shows badly in July. For plenty of owners that trade is worth it; for some it isn't, and we'll say so.
Six of us inherited it and we don't agree. Can you still buy?+
Often, yes. We can buy one heir's interest, wait while an estate clears probate, or put a contract in place that only closes once everyone signs. Bring us the family situation early — it's the part we're most used to solving.
What about a perc test, wetlands, or a stream buffer?+
Our problem, not yours. We price assuming the ground may not perc and that buffers apply, then verify during due diligence. You don't need to spend a dollar on testing to get a number from us.
