Selling your land to a real estate investor can be an efficient, simple, and profitable way to sell your Texas property. In our latest post, we’ll discuss how it works, what you can expect, and how to determine if it is the right selling method for you! 

When people initially decide to sell a land in Texas, their first thought may not be to find a real estate investor to work with. However, the right investor can save a property owner thousands, in addition to all the time that can potentially be saved. Working with a buyer such as the team at Faraway Land will allow you to avoid the traditional selling costs, save you time on the sale, and give you the peace of mind in knowing that once an offer has been accepted, you can consider the land sold. Below are a few things you should know about selling your land to a real estate investor in Texas.

Preparing Your Property

The beauty of working with a direct buyer or property investor is that there is usually very little if any prep work that needs to be done before selling a Texas land. Most buyers will purchase the property as is, saving you the time and effort of getting it ready for a sale. With a listing, it is important the property be kept clean at all times in case of a last minute showing request from a potential buyer. You’ll want to show your land in the best light for everyone who comes to see it. By selling directly, you won’t have to worry about strangers traipsing through your land or keeping the property in showing-ready condition at all times.

Your Costs

One of the major perks about working with a direct buyer when selling your Texas land, is all the cash you’ll be able to save. There aren’t usually any costs when you work with a professional investor. The land is typically purchased as-is, not requiring any repairs or maintenance be done before it is sold. There is no need to clean, stage, or even market the land which can ultimately save thousands.

With a traditional listing, you aren’t free of the costs even after a buyer has been found. After the appraisal and inspection, you might be faced with even more repairs. When the property eventually closes, there are commissions, agent fees, and many other costs that must be paid. When you choose a direct sale, commissions and agent costs go out the door. You’ll be able to keep more money in your pocket when all is said and done.

The Timeframe

When you work with a direct buyer, the amount of time saved can sometimes be shocking. It is not uncommon for lands to stay on the MLS for months at a time. However, with a direct sale, the process is usually completed in only a matter of days. We make things easy and efficient so you can sell your land quickly and move on.

A fast sale helps you to avoid any more holding costs for the property. Instead of officially selling your land months down the road, selling right away saves you money on your property taxes, land owners insurance, utility bills each month, and regular, routine maintenance.

Not All Buyers Are The Same

When discussing direct buyers and real estate investors in Texas, it’s important to note that not all of them are the same. The points above are true for the team at Faraway Land, however, if you choose to work with another buyer, make sure you find out how their process works. Some buyers may require repairs be made, that you pay for the closing costs, or that you wait to close until they have found a new buyer for your land within their network. Before selling, make sure you are asking all of the right questions so you know what to expect. When working with any company, you’ll receive a fast closing and an excellent price.
