Property Acquisition Process

Our process involves developing an understanding of the value and potential of the vacant land. The process moves quickly but is necessary to work for our business model. This document outlines the general process for acquiring property.

Process
Land Merchants USA 3

Step 1: Initial Conversation

We begin by talking with you to understand your goals for selling the property. This helps us tailor our approach to your needs.

Step 2: Detailed Property Analysis

Our team conducts a thorough evaluation considering:

  • Road access and elevation
  • Flood zones and flood ways
  • Neighboring lots and zoning restrictions

Step 3: Market Comparison

We analyze recent sales of similar-sized lots in your area within the past six months to understand current market trends.

Step 4: Improvement Estimates

    We estimate potential costs that may be needed to improve or prepare the land, such as:

    • Clearing the land
    • Soil tests (for septic systems)
    • Water tests (if a well is needed)
    • Survey and engineering costs

    Step 5: Offer Price Determination

    Taking into account the market price, estimated improvement costs, and carrying costs, we establish a fair offer price.

    Step 6: Contract and Closing

    We perform the following steps to ensure a smooth transaction: 

    • Get a property inspection.
    • Review title documents.
    • Assess environmental factors.
    • Contact the city/county for zoning regulations.

    Step 7: Closing the Deal

    Finalize the transaction by: 

    • Signing legal documents at the closing.
    • Receiving proceeds from the sale.

    • Size & Zoning Classification: We analyze the lot size and how it’s zoned to understand its allowed uses.
    • Access & Topography: We check for legal road access, slope, and terrain to determine usability.
    • Utilities & Development Potential: Availability of water, electricity, and potential for future development are key considerations.
    • Local Market Demand: Recent sales and area demand help shape our offer.
    • Outstanding Taxes, Liens, or Title Issues: We identify and offer help in resolving any legal or financial obstacles.
