Frequently Asked Questions
Clear, honest answers about selling your land to We Buy Land CLT. Fewer taxes, less stress, more cash.
Is your offer in writing?
Yes, every single time. We send a formal, written cash offer within 48 hours spelling out the exact price and terms. No verbal guesswork, and no price renegotiations once we agree.
Am I under any obligation if I request an offer?
None at all. Submitting your property details is 100% free and comes with zero pressure. If the offer works for you, great. If not, you’re free to walk away.
How long does it take to get my offer?
We send a written cash offer within 48 hours of receiving your property details. If we need a little more information to get it right, we’ll reach out quickly so you’re not left waiting.
How do I get a cash offer?
It takes three quick steps. First, fill out our short form with your property’s location and size. Second, we review the details and send a written cash offer within 48 hours. Third, if you accept, you pick your closing date and a local attorney handles the rest.
How do you decide what to offer?
We look at the things that affect what land is actually worth: location, acreage, road access, utilities, zoning, terrain, and recent sales nearby. We also take into account any back taxes or liens, since those get settled at closing. Our offer is a fair, as-is price, and we’ll explain how we got there if you ask.
Will the offer change after I accept it?
No. Once we agree on a price, that’s the price. Your written offer spells out the exact amount and terms, and we don’t come back with last-minute changes.
What kinds of land do you buy?
We buy almost all types of vacant land, including raw overgrown acreage, rural timberland, farm or pasture ground, vacant residential lots, inherited property, and even landlocked parcels with no road access.
Do I need to clean up or clear the land before selling?
No. We buy land completely as-is.
What if my land is landlocked or has no road access?
We still want to hear about it. Landlocked parcels are hard to sell the traditional way, and we buy them as-is. Tell us what you know about the access situation and we’ll factor it into your offer.
Can I sell land I inherited or that’s tied up in an estate?
Yes, we buy inherited land all the time. Depending on the situation, the estate may need to be settled or the right people may need to sign before a sale can close. A local North Carolina attorney can confirm what’s needed, and we’ll walk you through it one step at a time.
How fast can you close?
Most closings happen 14 to 30 days after you accept, through a local attorney or title company. You pick the closing date.
What if I owe back taxes or have liens on the property?
That’s common with vacant land, and it isn’t a dealbreaker. Tell us roughly what is owed so the offer accounts for it, and the closing attorney settles it directly out of the sale proceeds at closing.
Do I have to pay any fees or commissions?
No. No commissions, no listing fees, and we pay all standard closing costs. The amount on your written offer is the amount you receive.
Who handles the closing and how do I get paid?
A licensed local North Carolina real estate attorney or title company handles the closing. They hold the earnest money deposit, take care of the paperwork, and distribute your funds at closing. We pay the standard closing costs, so the amount on your written offer is the amount you receive.
Will I owe taxes on the sale?
It depends on your situation, including what you paid for the land, how long you’ve owned it, and whether it was inherited. We can’t give tax advice, so we’d recommend checking with a tax professional about your specific case. The good news is that you can ask before you accept anything, and our offer comes with no obligation.
Is this a scam?
No. You deal directly with Andrew Keel, the owner, and every deal is handled safely through a licensed local North Carolina real estate attorney or title company who holds the earnest money deposit and distributes your funds.
How do I know the offer is serious?
Every offer comes in writing with the exact price and terms. The deal is handled through a licensed local attorney or title company that holds the earnest money deposit. You’re also dealing directly with the owner, Andrew Keel, and we hold an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau.
Will you put my property under contract and resell it?
No. We buy land directly, which is why you deal with the owner and not a middleman. The offer you receive is from us, for your property, and it’s backed by a closing handled through a local attorney or title company.
Do you need my bank info or Social Security number?
Not to request an offer. All we need is your property details. At closing, the attorney or title company may need certain information to complete the sale and pay you, and they handle that securely. Never send sensitive details by email or text to anyone you haven’t verified.
Who will I be talking to and how fast do you respond?
You’ll talk directly with Andrew Keel, the owner, not a call center. We respond quickly and keep you updated at every step, so you always know where things stand.
