Frequently Asked Questions
It’s normal to have questions when selling land. We get them all the time. Below, we’ve put together some of the most common questions people ask us, along with our answers. If you don’t see your question here, reach out anytime at (502) 215-5880. We’re always happy to help.
Q: Will you be listing my land on the MLS or actually buying it?
A: Great question. We’re not agents, and we don’t list land. At Land Cash Offers, we are direct land buyers. We purchase land in Kentucky that meets our buying criteria, and because we don’t rely on bank financing, you never have to worry about our ability to close. After buying, we may hold the property for future use, resell it to another buyer, or develop it ourselves.
Q: How are you different from a real estate agent?
A: Real estate agents list land and wait for a buyer to come along. They may market the property, show it to interested buyers, and if it sells, they take a commission, usually 5–6% of the sale price. For example, on a $50,000 piece of land, you could end up paying $2,500–$3,000 in commissions. Plus, selling through an agent can often take months, sometimes longer, depending on the market. That’s where we are different. We are not agents; we are direct land buyers. We purchase your land ourselves with cash, which means you do not have to wait months or pay commissions. Because we buy directly, we can make a decision quickly, often within a few days, and sometimes even the same day. We take on the risk of owning the land and then decide whether to hold it, resell it, or develop it ourselves.
Q: Do you pay fair prices for land?
A: Many of the properties we purchase are below full market value. We do this so we can resell the land at a profit to another buyer or investor. We are looking to buy at a fair discount, but in return, landowners benefit from the speed and simplicity we offer. In our experience, most sellers are not expecting a huge payout. They value that we can pay cash, close quickly without bank delays, and save them the hassle of paying agent commissions, waiting months for a buyer, or covering ongoing costs like taxes and maintenance.
If that sounds like what you are looking for, we will do our best to agree on a win-win price that works for both sides. And with our no-obligation offer, you are never required to accept. It is simply good to know what we can offer you.
Q: How do you determine the price to offer on my land?
A: Great question, and we are very transparent about our process. We look at several factors, including the location of the land, its size, zoning, access, utilities, and recent sales of comparable land in Kentucky. By considering all of these details, we can determine a fair cash offer that reflects current market conditions and makes sense for both you and us.
Q: Are there any fees or commissions to work with you?
A: No, there are absolutely no fees or commissions when you sell your land directly to Land Cash Offers. Unlike traditional real estate agents who can take up to 6% of the sale price, we make you a straightforward cash offer. If it works for you, we handle the entire process from start to finish and often even cover the closing costs. Our profit comes only after we buy the land and decide to resell or develop it. By selling to us, you avoid agent fees, long wait times, and ongoing costs, and you walk away with cash in hand and peace of mind.
Q: Is there any commitment when I provide my information?
A: No, there is absolutely no obligation. When you share details about your land, we review the information, may reach out to ask a few questions, and then present you with a fair cash offer. That’s how our process works. The decision to sell is completely up to you. We want you to choose what works best for you, with no pressure from us.
If you still have a question, contact us at (502) 215-5880 to speak with a real person. We’ll gladly walk you through the process, answer your concerns, and help you feel confident every step of the way.
