Sell My Land Fast, Without Listing It
If you own vacant land that just sits there, you are paying taxes on something that gives nothing back. Maybe you inherited it. Maybe the plan to build never happened. Maybe you live three states away and have never seen it.
Listing land is slow. Most buyers need a land loan, lenders are cautious, and parcels without utilities or paved access can sit for months. We skip all of that. We buy land directly, with cash, in the condition it is in today.
We Buy Land From Owners Every Week
We Buy Vacant Land is part of Landtrade, a land investment company. When you call, you talk to our team, not a call center or a middleman who will resell your contract. We research your parcel, make you a written offer, and close through a licensed title company.
You decide whether the offer works for you. There is no pressure and no cost to ask.
How It Works
01 Tell us about your land
Fill out the form or call. A parcel number (APN) or address and the county is all we need to start.
02 Get a written cash offer
We research zoning, access and nearby sales, then send you a written offer, usually within 48 hours.
03 Close and get paid
A title company handles the closing and pays you. Close on the date you choose, often in about 10 days.
Where We Buy Land
We buy vacant land in these states right now, from small infill lots to large rural acreage. Pick your state for local details, or just send us your parcel.
Land somewhere else? Send it anyway. We look at parcels in other states too.

Selling to a Cash Buyer vs. Listing Your Land
There is more than one way to sell land. Here is how the three common routes compare, so you can pick the one that fits.
| Sell to us | List with an agent | Sell it yourself | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Commission | None | Often 6% to 10% on land | None |
| Closing costs | We pay them | Seller usually pays a share | Seller usually pays a share |
| Time to sell | Offer in about 48 hours, close in about 10 days | Often many months for vacant land | Depends on finding a buyer |
| Work for you | Answer a few questions | Listing, photos, showings, offers | Marketing, calls, screening buyers, paperwork |
| Buyer financing | Not needed, we pay cash | Many buyers need a land loan | Many buyers need a land loan |
| Condition | As-is | Buyers may ask for a survey or clearing | Buyers may ask for a survey or clearing |
If top dollar matters more than speed and you can wait, listing may get a higher price. We will tell you that if it is true for your land.

"*" indicates required fields
Land We Buy
- Vacant lots
- Rural acreage
- Desert land
- Recreational land
- Infill lots
- Subdivision lots
Size, shape and condition are not deal breakers. A quarter-acre lot in a pre-platted subdivision and forty acres of open desert both get a real look.
Situations We Handle
- Inherited land. We work with heirs and estates, including when several family members are on title.
- Back taxes or liens. These can often be paid off from the sale at closing.
- Out-of-state owners. You never need to visit the property. Closing can be done by mail or with a mobile notary.
- HOA dues piling up. Selling stops the yearly bills.
How to Choose Cash Buyers for Land
Most land buyers are honest, but a few are not. Whoever you sell to, these checks protect you:
- Get the offer in writing, with the price and who pays closing costs.
- Close through a licensed title or escrow company, never a direct handoff of money.
- Never pay an upfront fee to receive an offer or to sell.
- Ask who the buyer is. A real company has a name, a phone number that gets answered, and reviews you can read.
Documents You Need to Sell Land
Less than most people expect. In most cases we need:
- Proof that you own it, such as a deed or tax bill. If you cannot find it, we can look it up from the county records.
- A valid photo ID for the closing.
- For inherited land, the death certificate and any probate or trust papers. The title company tells you exactly what your county requires.
FAQs About Selling Your Land
How fast can I sell my land?
We usually send a written offer within 48 hours of getting your parcel details. Once you accept, closing often takes about 10 days, depending on title and the date you pick.
Do you pay closing costs?
Yes. We pay the title and escrow closing costs, so the offer you accept is what you receive. Any back taxes or liens on the property are paid from the sale.
Are there any fees or commissions?
No. There are no real estate commissions, listing fees or hidden costs.
What types of land do you buy?
Most types of vacant land, including rural lots, desert land, recreational land, subdivision lots and parcels that have never been developed.
How do you decide what to offer?
We look at location, zoning, access, size, recent nearby sales, property taxes and demand in that area, then make a fair cash offer based on what we find.
Do I need to clear the land or get a survey?
No. We buy land as-is. There is no need to clear brush, add utilities or order a survey.
What if my land has no road access or utilities?
It depends on the parcel. Land without legal road access or utilities is harder to sell to anyone, including us. It usually means a lower offer, and sometimes we have to pass. Send us the details and we will tell you plainly where it stands.
Can I sell land with back taxes or liens?
Yes. In most cases they are paid off from the sale proceeds at closing.
I live in another state. Can I still sell?
Yes. Many of our sellers have never seen their land. Documents can be signed by mail or with a mobile notary near you.
Do I have to accept the offer?
No. Asking for an offer is free and there is no obligation.
