We look at several factors when evaluating land to make a fair and informed offer:
Location & Access – Proximity to roads, utilities, and growing areas boosts value.
Zoning & Land Use – What’s allowed now, and what’s planned for the area?
Size & Shape – Usable, well-shaped parcels tend to be worth more.
Topography & Soil – Steep slopes, flood zones, or poor soil can lower value.
Utilities – Land with access to water, sewer, and electricity is more valuable.
Recent Sales – We look at what similar land nearby has sold for.
Title or Legal Issues – Liens, back taxes, or unclear ownership can impact pricing.
Every property is unique, and we consider all of these elements when creating your offer.

That’s completely fine. We’re happy to review your situation, offer insights about your property, and present an offer you can consider on your own timeline. There’s no pressure. We believe in long-term relationships—not hard sells. If and when the time is right, we’ll be here.
-
Every seller has a unique story. Some inherited a property they don’t have the time or desire to manage. Others are tired landlords dealing with difficult tenants, or they own vacant land that’s become more of a burden than an asset. Many people come to us because they simply want a direct sale without agent commissions, inspections, or the stress of listing on the open market.
-
Our main focus is land—particularly from sellers who are dealing with unique challenges like back taxes, title issues, inherited parcels, or simply no longer want to manage the property. That said, we also acquire residential and commercial properties if there’s a path toward future development. We evaluate every opportunity based on its potential to reach its highest and best use in line with the city's long-term land use plan.
-
Many of the properties we buy are typically never sold on the public market due to the extensive time & fees required to pay a real estate agent to market and sell these properties.
It’s important to understand the time, costs, and steps involved in preparing your land for a traditional listing.
Things to Keep in Mind
When listing with an agent, there are often out-of-pocket expenses and added responsibilities. These can include:
Land Surveys: Usually range between $400 and $1,500 per acre, depending on complexity
Soil Testing: Typically costs $300 to $1,500, especially important if the buyer wants to build
Clearing Brush or Trees: Often falls between $1,200 and $1,600 per acre
In addition, you’ll need to account for agent commissions and closing costs—which typically range from 5-10% of the sale price.
Land doesn’t sell quickly in most markets. Because land is a niche product, and many agents don’t specialize in it, properties often sit on the market for 12 to 36 months.
Why Sell to Freedom Estate Partners?
Here’s how we’re different:
We handle all the due diligence. Need a survey? Soil testing? Clearing? We take care of it—at no cost to you.
We can move quickly. If you want to sell fast and skip the hassle, we can make a fair offer and close on your timeline.
We tailor each deal. Whether your land is inherited, behind on taxes, or just something you no longer want to manage, we’ll work with you to find a solution that fits.
We offer creative options. If you're looking to defer capital gains or want passive income over time, we can structure an installment sale by holding the note.
-
Every parcel is different. Sometimes we hold the land as a long-term investment. In other cases, we may work with city planners, engineers, and local partners to rezone, subdivide, or prepare it for development. Our goal is to bring every asset to its highest and best use to enhance the surrounding community as well.
-
We can close in as little as 7 to 14 days depending on the complexity of the title and your preferred timeline. If you need more time to make arrangements or get documents in order, we’ll work with you to close at a pace that feels right. Our process is designed to be flexible and respectful of your needs.
-
We work with a small group of private investors and capital partners who share our long-term approach to land and property investment. Depending on the deal, we will purchase directly or partner with trusted end buyers and developers who align with the property's highest and best use.
Regardless of how a deal is structured on our end, you can expect a straightforward, professional process—built around clear communication and follow-through.
