Frequently Asked Questions

We compare your parcel to recent sold land nearby, adjusting for size, access, road frontage, utilities, zoning and location. We use verified sold comparables, not automated estimates or asking prices.

We aim to make a fair offer the first time, but we are always open to a conversation. If you have information that affects value, such as a recent survey, perc test or utility access, share it and we will take another look.

No. An offer costs you nothing and you are never obligated to sell.

Yes. Our offers are cash, so there are no bank loan approvals or appraisals holding up the sale.

A licensed title company or closing attorney handles the paperwork, checks the title and holds the funds. You get paid at closing by wire or check.

It depends mostly on the title work and the county. Many closings take a few weeks. We will give you a realistic timeline with your offer and you choose the closing date.

Your written offer spells out exactly which costs each side covers, so there are no surprises. Ask us anytime and we will walk you through it.

Usually not. Most sellers sign with a mobile notary or at a local title office, and everything else is handled remotely.

Vacant lots, infill lots and acreage. Wooded, overgrown, landlocked and odd shaped parcels are all worth a conversation.

Often yes. Past due property taxes and many liens can be paid off at closing out of the sale proceeds. The title company will confirm what needs to be cleared.

Yes. We work with heirs, executors and estate attorneys. The title company will tell us what documents are needed to transfer the property.

No. We buy land as it is. You do not need to clear, survey or improve anything before selling.

We research public county property records to find owners of vacant land in the areas where we buy, then reach out to see if they are interested in selling. If you are not interested, reply STOP to any text or let us know and we will remove you right away.

South Carolina, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and Ohio, plus new markets in Texas, Colorado and Arizona. If your land is somewhere else, reach out anyway.

No. Summit Land Investments is a land company, not a brokerage, so there is no agent commission. In some cases we may assign our purchase agreement to a partner buyer such as a builder. If that is possible on your deal it is stated in the agreement, and the title company handles the closing the same way.
