Frequently asked questions
Here are some answers to questions we get from landowners just like you.
General Questions
What does Land Lover do?
Land Lover is a land buying company that specializes in purchasing vacant land directly from owners. We make all cash offers and we streamline the sale process to make it as simple as possible. We have a large network of homeowners, builders, contractors, and land investors that we work with. Our goal is to make the process as quick and easy as possible and put unused or unwanted land to a better use.
Do you pay a fair price for land?
Yes. The prices we pay are fair and a win-win for both parties. We also close very quickly because we are paying in cash. This saves you money by shortening the period of time in which you are responsible for taxes, assessments, and maintenance of the property. While we normally can’t pay full retail prices, our offers are fair and reflect the market value of a fast, hassle-free sale.
Why should I work with Land Lover vs. listing with an agent?
Selling to Land Lover comes with a lot of advantages that an agent simply cannot offer like speed, convenience and privacy. Also, we don’t charge commissions or fees, and we cover all closing and admin costs. Most real estate agents force you to sign long contracts to give them exclusive rights to selling your property. These contracts tie you up legally for months or years while they try to sell your land. We pay cash and close fast, so you can get back to your life. Give us a call for a free consultation. (941) 230-LAND We can help you decide what’s the right choice for your specific needs.
But, don’t I have to hire a real estate agent to sell my land?
Not at all. Some people think you need to hire and pay a real estate agent in order to buy or sell property in the United States. That’s just not true. The title company or closing attorneys actually handle the paperwork and the legal details when a property sells. Agents just list and market your land on the MLS and take a commission for that. Close to half a million real estate transactions are completed every year without the use of an agent. It’s actually quite common.
Selling Questions
How do you determine the offer amount for my land?
Our process is super simple and transparent. We evaluate recent sales of similar properties, current market trends, and the land’s future potential. Then we factor in savings on commissions, the cost of marketing and reselling the property, and a modest profit margin. When you receive an offer from Land Lover, we’re happy to walk you through exactly how we came to that number.
How do I get an offer on my land?
Simply fill out our quick property form on the website or give us a call (941) 230-LAND. Once we review the details, we’ll send you a fair cash offer for your land. We can usually make an offer within 24-48 hours. Sometimes we may need to call you or follow up first if we have any specific questions, but most of the time it’s a pretty fast process.
Do you buy land in any condition or location?
Yes! We buy rural lots, city parcels, land with access issues, commercial land, and even properties with back taxes or liens. We buy land zoned for any type of use in any area. If you own land, we’re interested.
Am I obligated to accept your offer?
Nope. Our offers are 100% free and there’s absolutely no pressure or commitment. Once you submit your property details, we’ll do our research and make you an offer within 48 hours. You decide if it’s the right move for you—no strings attached.
Will I get more money if I list my land with an agent?
Not necessarily. Real estate agents typically charge 6% or more to list your land and brokers may add “broker or admin fees” on top of that. Also, the traditional land market is slow and you’ll have to pay taxes and maintenance while you wait for your land to sell which could take months or years. Now add closing costs and title fees and selling land with an agent might not be worth it at all. Before you commit to an agent, get a free cash offer from us and see the numbers for yourself.
What if I decide that I do want an agent to list my land?
That’s ok too. Some people would just feel more comfortable paying a real estate agent to list their land on the MLS. If time isn’t important and you want to take a chance to see if you can find a buyer to pay more, listing with an agent is an option. Good News! We can still help with that. As experts in land sales we have relationships with the top land specific real estate agents in the state. Give us a call and we can connect you with the best of the best in your area. Whether you work with us or with an agent, we just want to help you sell your land whichever way is best for you.
Fees and Closing Questions
Are there any fees or costs to work with Land Lover?
Nope! There are no fees, commissions, or hidden charges. We even cover all closing costs. What we offer is exactly what you take home. We handle 100% of the closing costs, title fees, and any other transaction expenses. No surprises, no fine print.
How quickly can you close on my land?
Many deals can close in as little as 2–3 weeks, depending on the title status and paperwork. We’ll work with your schedule to make it smooth and efficient. Our goal is to close as quickly as you’d like.
How and when will I get paid?
Prior to closing we will wire the money to the title company. They hold the money for you until the closing date. Then you will receive the full payment via certified check or wire transfer. You get to choose. The closing company handles everything just like a bank. It couldn’t be any easier.
Do I have to be present at closing?
No. We work with local title companies and closing attornies who handle all of the closing documents and everything can be signed via email or we can hire a local mobile notary in your area to have you sign the documents in person. The process is as easy as selling a car.
Property Questions
What if I don’t have a recent survey or deed?
That’s totally fine. We handle all due diligence and title work, so missing documents usually aren’t a dealbreaker. It may add a few days to the process, but we can usually sort it out and move forward with the purchase.
Can I still sell my land if I owe back taxes on it?
Yes! We often buy land with unpaid taxes. We’ll work those into the offer and handle the payoff during closing. If you are on a tight schedule with a tax lien, pending foreclosure or the county is in the process of taking your land, please let us know. We are used to dealing with these issues and we can act fast to help you get paid before you lose the property.
Do I need to live near the land to sell it?
Not at all. We work with sellers nationwide. It’s quite common for people to buy land out of state for retirement or to build a vacation home and then life gets in the way. We can put that land to better use and put cash in your pocket for other things. Everything we do can be handled remotely, including the closing.
I inherited land, but it’s in probate, can I still sell it?
Yes. If you’re dealing with inherited land and need to sell, we can still make an offer, even while it’s in probate. We’ll work with your timeline and help guide you through what’s needed to close legally and efficiently. This type of sale is a little more involved, but we can definitely help.
