From the video:
David and Cathleen had a small quarter acre lot in Colorado. It wasn’t worth enough to hire an agent to sell it. So they were left wondering – how to sell my land without a realtor?
What to Do With Vacant Land?
David and Cathleen had long ago purchased a quarter acre lot in Colorado. They had once dreamed of having a second home there. As the years passed, other aspects of their life had to take priority, and that dream was replaced with others. They live in Texas – over 900 miles from where their property is located in Colorado.
They kept the property, and continued to pay the annual property taxes. They didn’t really know what to do with the lot. It wasn’t worth enough to hire a real estate agent to help them sell it. They felt stuck with it, losing money each year in taxes.
Vacant Colorado Land
As you can see, it’s a beautiful area of Colorado. And the property is nice and flat, great for that second home David and Cathleen were once hoping to build.
The problem for David and Cathleen was:
- Too expensive to hire a realtor
- Annual tax burden
- Life plans changed
Selling Land Without a Real Estate Agent
David and Cathleen were wary about hiring a real estate agent for their property, because it would really eat into their potential profit if it sold. Their property wasn’t really worth enough to justify hiring a realtor, and truthfully, most agents won’t list land that’s worth less than $10,000.
Even if an agent had been hired and had found a buyer for the lot, David and Cathleen would be paying the realtor a commission of 5.52%! For a totally vacant piece of land, that seemed pretty steep.
My team at Buy Your Land for Cash sent David and Cathleen a letter with an offer to purchase their property – and they were immediately interested. Finally, a way for them to sell their land without using real estate agents.
The key points David and Cathleen loved about our process:
- No realtors or commissions
- No worries about documents
- Cash in hand fast
Paperwork for Selling Land Without a Realtor
After speaking with David and Cathleen, we together decided that it would be best to do a direct close. That means my team here at Buy Your Land for Cash handles all of the paperwork, property transfer, and sending David and Cathleen their payment. We chose that route instead of a title company because it was the faster and less expensive option.
We took care of all the documents required for selling inherited property, and in less than 2 weeks, David and Cathleen had his cash in hand.
David and Cathleen’s Result
We had a pleasure getting to know David and Cathleen throughout this process. We’re happy to have been able to help them with their land burden! You can see their full review below. 😊
My wife and I were considering what to do with a parcel of land that we no longer had a use for when we received a bid from Andrew who was interested in purchasing it. After a couple of emails, we agreed to sell and were pleasantly surprised with the ease and speed in which the transaction was completed. All correspondence with Andrew and his team was simple, direct, and easy to understand. We greatly appreciated not having to involve a realtor in this process. Thanks again.
