Yes, of course! Please feel free to visit the property at your convenience prior to making your purchase. We encourage this when possible, and provide GPS coordinates, maps, and driving directions on each property page under the “Location” information. If you need more help locating the property, we are happy to help.
Through our phylosophy of streamlining efficiency and passing on great savings to the end buyer, we offer properties nationwide through “self-showings.” But, since it is not a house that needs to be unlocked, you are welcome to visit any of our properties at any time.
However, you are welcome to visit the property you are interested in at any time that’s convenient for you. The street address, GPS coordinates, and directions can be found on the property page under the “Location” information. Feel free to contact us should you need additional assistance locating a property.
All of our listings have parcel maps and GPS coordinates that make them easy to visit. If you think you may need help in locating a property, please contact us and we’ll make sure you are able to find it via free phone apps and more
It’s easy – just head out at your earliest convenience, but please keep the following issues in mind:
- Access: Please check the specific property listing for detailed access instructions and photos. We try our best to make it very easy for you to find our properties. If you have any questions about accessing the lot, call us any time.
- Notify: Please give us at least a few hours of notice before you head out so that we can make sure we have our phone on us in case you have questions while you’re out there or need help finding the lot.
- Property Lines: There is a great app called BaseMap, which works like a GPS for property lines, and allows you to walk the property lines of any parcel on an interactive map. It works off your phone’s GPS so doesn’t need cell service to work.We use this app all the time, and recommend it highly.
- Why is there no address? Most raw vacant or undeveloped land does not have an established address yet until something gets built on it. Property owners typically use GPS coordinates, or google map links to find it.
Backup Plan: A wise man once said, “I love it when a plan comes together.” Actually that man was Hannibal from the A-Team. Plans — and cell phone signals — do sometimes fail though (especially in rural areas), so please consider downloading the printable, one-page Property Summary available on the property listing page, as well as any additional photos and maps that may help direct you to the property.
Oftentimes when its vacant undeveloped (nothing built on it) land, then there is no address assigned to it like a “123 Main Street”. Once you develop or build (as per regulations allowed of course), then an address will get assigned to you. Sometimes you will see a whole subdivision developed and one or two vacant lots that says “0 Main Street” as its address.
It begins with us buying cheap. We buy properties nationwide in large volumes at auction, in tax, estate sales and motivated sellers. You’ll find investment properties on this site are discounted 20% off market value. We want repeat buyers who can make money re-selling the property themselves if they choose.
Our three-pronged goal is:
- Provide Excellent Customer Service via every communication channel available.
- Minimize Risk for Our Customers by researching and providing as much property information as possible. About 90% of the properties we research buying don’t make the cut. We only want high quality land with hassle-free titles. By extending that research arm even further, after we’ve actually purchased the land, the property and listing you finally get to see has been double-filtered for quality, thoroughness, and transparency.
- Offer the Lowest Possible Prices & In House EZ Qualify Financing By keeping our small company incredibly lean and efficient. We have cut out the middle man (real estate agents, brokers, lenders) by selling direct to you and keeping our overhead low by selling our land over the internet. These savings are in turn passed along to you.
Because we buy in large volumes at significant discounts in order to maximize savings to our end buyers we buy them “As-Is” and sell them “As-Is.” We can certainly do soil tests, Perc Tests, Surveys, and the like, but it slows down the process, adds significant costs and we would have to increase the prices. Think of us like a Costco Wholesale. When you buy there with a membership you have to bag your own items at checkout. This is exactly the same. It doesn’t mean there is anything wrong with the property, it’s just the way we buy and sell and offer such savings to our end buyers.
We purchase real property for the sole purpose of reselling it. Everything we know about each parcel is stated in the listing. We generally do a due diligence review and inspection and publish what we find but it’s up to the buyer to perform their own due diligence and confirm what they need to check on. This allows us to pass on significant savings to our end buyers. We include everything that we know about the property in the listings on our website. If the property has an HOA or any CC+Rs, we include these documents in the listing as well. Rest assured, if you have questions about the property that aren’t addressed in the listing, just let us know and we’ll do our best to find those answers for you. We also include the contact information for the county, local utility companies and service providers, so that if you have any additional questions, you can make those calls directly. In our experience, it is more efficient for you to have those conversations directly with the source of this information, so as to ensure you’re asking all of the relevant questions (and follow up questions) that arise while doing your due diligence. We always recommend that our buyers double check any information that is of particular importance to them with the original source of our info.
Property taxes should be posted on each listing page. Unless otherwise stated, all of our properties are free, clear and current at the time of conveyance. We offer a Clear Title Guarantee, among many of our perks for buying through us!
Check with city planning officials to see restrictions on the property. We publish our due diligence but as we buy a large volume at well below market value and pass on the savings to our end buyers, we have to sell them “As-Is, Where-Is” to pass on the savings, so it’s always a good idea to confirm with the local planning and zoning department on that property to confirm.
- Unless indicated in the description, the rural properties we represent do not have utilities. They’re perfect for a solar or wind-powered “green getaway.” We have a dedicated page on our website that provides resources and info on raw land improvement, which touches on some alternatives to traditional utilities (septic, solar, compost toilets, etc.).
We cannot guarantee that we hold the mineral or water rights on any of our properties. Once a buyer has paid in full for a property, we will, upon request, include language in the deed that grants the buyer any rights we do own.
We don’t research mineral or water rights information prior to acquiring our properties. You can research whether mineral or water rights have been transferred to a property in several ways. You can visit the county assessor’s office to pull deed copies and research all of the past deeds on this property or look for property rights in the deed history through a title company. Most often, mineral rights were reserved way back when the property was originally platted.
Unless indicated in the description, mineral rights are not included. We have never found this to be an issue with any of the properties we have sold. (99.9% of the time we don’t have them ourselves).
As we buy all kinds of real estate, residential, commercial, land houses, multi-family it really depends on as the opportunities arise.
Absolutely! There have been some savvy buyers that build a home, a shed, a busienss on their property increasing its value and go on to sell it for a tidy profit. At closing you would collect the difference as you have an equitable interest in your property and have a right to capture that increased value!
Call the County where the property is located. Every County, and every neighborhood, has different permitting rules. By calling the county directly (Typically Planning and Zoning Department), you can here it directly from the horses mouth.
Most of our subdivides are unrestricted land, but we do impose mild land use restrictions. Please see property details for restrictions specific to each property. Generally these restrictions are for the safety and value retention of the neighboring lots, like No Commercial Shooting Ranges, No Junk Yards, etc. Check with the property profile page for more info.
As soon as you purchase the property you are welcome to begin using/developing it, regardless of whether you choose to pay for the property in full or finance it. We only ask that you follow any rules or regulations set by the county (or HOA if applicable) and remain current on your land payments.
We acquire most of our own properties through government auctions, foreclosures, small investment companies, and tax liens. We own or have a legal equitable right to sell all of the properties we have advertised on our website.
You’re welcome to have your property surveyed. All properties on TheLandOutlet™ are undeveloped, and most of them have not been surveyed. You can usually look up a local surveyor in your property’s area. Please keep in mind that TheLandOutlet™ is not responsible for the costs for surveying a property.
We encourage buyers to do their own research about a property before purchasing it, but we do provide some basic zoning information on each property page in the “Property Specifics” section. In this section you can also find information about the property’s road access and slope. For more specific information about zoning on a property you can contact the county where the property is located.
Well and Septic Price Range:
$15K to $40K
Like anything else it always depends on geographic location, the land, the vendor, and the systems you put. You can drill a well 100 feet or one 1,000 feet. Typically the deeper the more water but also depends. For septic systems there are many types of systems out there, but generally speaking:
Wells Range $7,500 to $20k
$15-60 per linear foot

Once you’ve decided on the right property, you can check out directly on the property page by clicking the “Buy Now” button. You can purchase the property by paying in full, or in installments (if available)– just select your preference. If you’d like to purchase via another method, please feel free to contact us for all payment options.
Cash, Checks, Money Orders, Wires, Credit Cards, Debit Cards, ACH Payments, and trades. Yes we would consider even trades–call us!
Almost anything…try us.
We’ve simplified the buying process with straightforward, easy-to-read contracts. Of course, we encourage you to hire a professional if you think it’s necessary but we’ve done our best to make the process easy for anyone to understand. You are always welcome to have any professional review the documents, property, process as you wish to feel comfortable. No, but if you wish to involve your realtor or real estate lawyer and have them review any element of the transaction, you’re more than welcome to do so! We’re happy to work with them and provide any information they request. Simply put, purchasing directly from us cuts out the middle-man, and we’ve spent significant time and money to research and provide to you as much information as possible about our properties. We want you to walk into this transaction with “eyes wide open” and comfortable enough to proceed without the service of a realtor. Realtors charge an average commission of 6% for their services. By selling our properties directly to you we are able to eliminate this fee and pass the savings along to you. If you purchase directly from us, you pay only the cost of the property and your share of closing costs. Part of the reason we are able to offer our land at discounted prices is that we have eliminated many of the “middlemen” whose services add significant costs to the completion of a deal. Personally, we like good, cheap land and we assume you like it too!
Yes, the mortgage structures listed on each property page are guidelines. We’ll work with you and your budget.
Yes, you can pay your mortgage (or part of your mortgage) off at any time, using any of our accepted forms of payment. There’s never any pre-payment penalty through one of our many Guarantees!
You can set up auto payments from a bank account, credit card, or debit card at no extra charge. Or you can make monthly payments each month directly on our website. We can also accept other types of payment methods such as cashier’s check, wire transfer, or Paypal.
TheLandoutlet has been in the business since 1999. Our reputation is important to us. We always have a real person in our office to speak to you. Also, be sure to check out our online reviews on Google and Facebook to see what our customers are saying about us.
We take ownership of properties under the name of a Trust or an LLC. TheLandOutlet™ is our Sales Company (Or Brand as often called), and will not show as the property owner in County Records. You will see the name of the Trust or LLC both in the County records and on your Land Contract. Additionally we have three main addresses, with our main one being Beaverton:
9450 SW Gemini Dr PMB 83274, Beaverton, OR 97008
3346 Market St PMB 83274, San Francisco, CA 94104
382 NE 191st St Ste 83274 Miami, FL 33179
We never charge any prepayment penalties or fees. Pay down the principal sooner to avoid additional interest and save in the long run.
You can expect the closing process to take 2-4 weeks, but we will confirm the exact closing date with you as soon as we know.
a. Sign The Title Documents: You do not need to travel to the title company to close. We can have the Title Company email you any documents they need your signature on, and you can take them to a local notary for signing. You can then send them to the Title Company (with an overnight label provided by the title company).
b. Fund The Transaction: You’ll never be asked to send us money directly – you’ll send the purchase funds to the licensed/insured Title Company, who will hold the funds in escrow until the transaction is ready to close. Wire transfers are preferable, but if you prefer, a certified check would also be acceptable.
c. Take Your New Land! The Title Company will not release these funds to us until they’ve run the title search, sent you the settlement statement, and closing is complete.
If the property is listed through a Real Estate Agent and you’ve engaged the agent, we encourage you to continue with them out of respect to them. If you have reached us directly and not through an agent there is nothing wrong with continuing on through the process directly with us..
Yes, we conduct thorough due diligence on our properties and the titles are insurable by nationally recognized Title Insurance Companies. In some cases when discount properties are sold at below $10,000 Title Insurance may not be provided but can become available if the buyer requests the cost of the insurance.
Each property is unique. Some require 4 wheel drive and GPS to locate while others have “drive right up” access. Please contact us if you need any assistance with maps, coordinates, etc.
No, we guarantee clear title on all of our properties. We do an extensive in-house title search, and we have a 100% money-back guarantee to back this promise. Unlike many of our competitors, we guarantee that you will not get stuck with a property with delinquent property taxes, delinquent HOA dues, or title issues.
Yes! You can purchase a property no matter where you live. We’ve even had buyers from other countries purchase land from us.
We have no lengthy pre-qualification process, no credit checks, and no red tape. If you can pay the down payment and are comfortable with the low monthly payments, you can purchase land from us using seller financing. Is it too good to be true? Here’s our process, simple and transparent – we hold the deed to the property while you are financing the land as collateral for your note. When it is paid in full, we transfer the deed to you at that time. Simple. Affordable. Transparent.
Yes. We provide our efficient transaction service as a means to simplify the process and save money for the end buyers. You are perfectly welcome to use a traditional title office to close but you would have to cover those costs.
No. We guarantee that all of our properties are sold free & clear of liens and encumbrances and that the taxes are current.
Due diligence or sometimes called “inspection period” is the time a buyer asks to review the property to make sure it fits what they need. For land that could be doing a survey, checking with planning and zoning to confirm what can be done, could be a perk test, or for structures like homes, could be a home inspection for example. Many investors have short or no due diligence period to strengthen their offer but it depends on the buyer and their use for it.
Although there are always closing costs when buying real estate, here at TheLandoutlet™ through out Guarantees we never charge the buyer any fees or closing costs!
Absolutely! You have a due diligence period selected on your purchase, if you are not happy with the property for any reason let us know in writing during the due diligence period and we’ll be happy to fully refund 100% of your deposit right away!
Because we buy hundreds of properties around the country nationwide below market value and pass a lot of savings to the end buyers we have to offer these with an As Is Where Is Addendum. Similar to what many builders do and Banks with Foreclosed Properties, the Buyers have to do their own confirmation/due diligence when buying.
By separating ourselves from the financing business altogether, and thus not adding the risk of default into our pricing structure, we’re able to offer the lowest possible prices on land. If you look at most owner financed options they are overpriced relative to everything else on the market and have a high interest rate along with extra fees added into the deal. There is a pervasive myth that you cannot get a loan to buy raw land. We have worked with many financed buyers and the interest rates banks offer these days cannot be beat. You’re always welcome to research and contact local lenders if you need financing. And we will do our best to connect you with helpful lenders in the area. We do not offer owner-financing but you could get a loan through a bank or another lender and we’d be happy to coordinate with them.
We can typically offer financing on our properties. The minimum down payment varies on a property-by-property basis. After the down payment, the remaining balance may be financed on a term of anywhere from 1 year to 30 years. We offer easy terms, with no credit check or lengthy underwriting process and we cover ALL of the closing costs. You will have full use of the property upon completion of the paperwork and receipt of your down payment. There is no prepayment penalty or balloon payment, so you can pay off the loan at any time.
No, we are a national real estate investment company who buys large volumes of real estate at steep discounts, passing the savings on to the end buyers! Although some of our staff, members or managers may hold a real estate license, we are a direct seller, again passing all the savings onto you, the savvy buyer!
a. The Buy Now button makes it easy . . . just click, enter your contact info (name, phone, email) and click on the icon that matches how you would like to pay (PayPal, PayPal Credit Card, or other Credit Card).
b. You have the option to Do Finance, Pay Cash (Discounted Price), or Reserve. This Reserve Payment is applicable to the purchase price and will hold the property for 72 hours to allow time for you to sign and return our simple purchase agreement, and complete the funding requirements you chose.
c. Once the simple paperwork is completed, additional earnest money will be due within 48 hours and we will schedule the closing date with you.
d. For using the Buy Now button here, you will receive your Reservation Amount off the listed Purchase Price!
If someone else put a property under contract right before you were able to do it, don’t give up yet! Sometimes contracts do fall through and, in those cases, we award the new contract to the next person in line. In short, if you want to make sure you don’t miss out again, you can enter a backup contract for $499. That is 100% refundable and does apply to the purchase price. If the contract does slide to you, then the additional earnest money is due (usually $500 and also applicable to the purchase price) and we proceed to closing the deal with the Title Company.
Talk to us. It’s as safe as any other real estate transaction. We’ll provide our title search and present you with a warranty deed. For more expensive properties (over $10,000), we’ll help arrange title insurance should you want it. To date, we’ve NEVER had an unsatisfied client.
No. We cover all expenses including closing and recording costs.
No. You are more than welcome to obtain bank financing, or purchase with cash. For more information, visit our Owner Financing page.
No, we do not charge PMI.
If you are closing through our company directly then you will not incure any closing costs (it is complementary for you). If you decide to close with a conventional closing / title company or attorney then you would be responsible for conventional buyers closing costs.
We do not limit the number of people applying for the loan. Application fees vary based on how many apply.
It typically takes only 2-3 business days if you have your down payment for Terms or Cash available for Cash Discounted Price.
Yes. If you buy through a business entity, you will need to personally guarantee the loan. The contract and loan will be made to the business entity.
You are welcome to contact our office and speak with a real person at 1-844-55-CHEAP (24327). Our office hours are Monday through Friday, 8am to 4pm, Pacific Standard Time. Or use our live chat feature on our website. Keep your eye out for the live chat box to click on our website’s homepage or property pages where you’ll see “Need Help? Click here for live support.”
Properties are available on a first-come, first-serve basis and will not be put on hold. When you’re ready to purchase the property you want, you can click on the “Buy Now” button, or call our office at 1-844-55-CHEAP to put the initial money down.
All land sales are final at the time the property is purchased in full or initial money is put down to begin financing. A $200 cancellation fee will be charged should you decide to cancel your contract. Please do your due diligence, and make sure the property you purchase is the one you want for your investment.
Transfer tax is a tax imposed by a state or county to transfer the title of a property. This tax is not imposed by all states, but can’t be waived in those areas that do charge it.
Once you pay off a property, we will execute the property deed to you and send it to the county for recording within 30 days. A copy of the deed will be sent to you as well. After the county has recorded the title change they will send you the original document.
We guarantee a free and clear title will be transferred to you when the property is paid off. This means that we guarantee that the property taxes and any HOA dues will be current, and that there will be no tax liens, judgments, or title defects transferred with the property title at the time the property is paid off.
In an effort to make land investing easier we do not perform credit checks or do any credit reporting. We see credit checks as an unnecessary, prohibitive step in the process of becoming a land owner.
Everyone qualifies for our owner financing option at TheLandOutlet! We don’t perform any credit checks or credit reporting in order to help make it as easy and affordable as possible for you to become a land owner.
You will receive a Property Investment Portfolio within 2 weeks of purchasing your new property. This portfolio will contain your land sale contract to show that you’re purchasing the property, along with helpful information about the property itself. There will also be a customer profile builder that we will need you to fill out and send back to us. This document is extremely important because it is what allows us to correctly record your deed once the property is paid off – so be sure to send it back to us!
When you’re ready to purchase a property from TheLandOutlet™, you can do so in two ways. Through our website simply click on the property’s red “Add to Cart” button. To make the purchase over the phone you can call our office at 1-844-55-CHEAP. We will ask for the following information:
• First and last name
• Email address
• Mailing address
• Phone number
• Credit or debit card you want to use to purchase the property
In our effort to provide the absolute rock bottom pricing we sometimes offer properties through “Assignment of Real Estate Contract”. What that means is that we are assigning our interest in the right ot purchase the property from the original seller. This equitable interest is completely legal and oftentimes closes in a title office or law office providing clear title to the property. This minimizes closing costs and allows us to pass on even more savings to the end buyer.
Absolutely! Anyone is welcome to purchase property from TheLandOutlet™. We ask for the same information whether or not you are located in the United States, and you will receive the same documentation either way. If you prefer not to wait for the mail to arrive, ask us about sending your documents by email. Many of our buyers, both national and international, have found this method even easier and more convenient.
A lot of our buyers find it helpful to use the satellite map when they are unable to physically visit the property. The satellite map will allow you to see the terrain of the area the property, and it can sometimes provide a street view of the property itself. This map is located on the property page in the “Maps” section.
Yes. You are welcome to use the maps and driving directions provided with each property page to go and take a look at the property before completing your purchase. You can locate the maps and driving directions for each property in the “Maps” section of the property page. Call us if you want more mapping help!

Due diligence or sometimes called “inspection period” is the time a buyer asks to review the property to make sure it fits what they need. For land that could be doing a survey, checking with planning and zoning to confirm what can be done, could be a perk test, or for structures like homes, could be a home inspection for example. Many investors have short or no due diligence period to strengthen their offer but it depends on the buyer and their use for it.
Although there are always closing costs when buying real estate, here at TheLandoutlet™ through out Guarantees we never charge the buyer any fees or closing costs!
Absolutely! You have a due diligence period selected on your purchase, if you are not happy with the property for any reason let us know in writing during the due diligence period and we’ll be happy to fully refund 100% of your deposit right away!
Because we buy hundreds of properties around the country nationwide below market value and pass a lot of savings to the end buyers we have to offer these with an As Is Where Is Addendum. Similar to what many builders do and Banks with Foreclosed Properties, the Buyers have to do their own confirmation/due diligence when buying.
By separating ourselves from the financing business altogether, and thus not adding the risk of default into our pricing structure, we’re able to offer the lowest possible prices on land. If you look at most owner financed options they are overpriced relative to everything else on the market and have a high interest rate along with extra fees added into the deal. There is a pervasive myth that you cannot get a loan to buy raw land. We have worked with many financed buyers and the interest rates banks offer these days cannot be beat. You’re always welcome to research and contact local lenders if you need financing. And we will do our best to connect you with helpful lenders in the area. We do not offer owner-financing but you could get a loan through a bank or another lender and we’d be happy to coordinate with them.
We can typically offer financing on our properties. The minimum down payment varies on a property-by-property basis. After the down payment, the remaining balance may be financed on a term of anywhere from 1 year to 30 years. We offer easy terms, with no credit check or lengthy underwriting process and we cover ALL of the closing costs. You will have full use of the property upon completion of the paperwork and receipt of your down payment. There is no prepayment penalty or balloon payment, so you can pay off the loan at any time.
No, we are a national real estate investment company who buys large volumes of real estate at steep discounts, passing the savings on to the end buyers! Although some of our staff, members or managers may hold a real estate license, we are a direct seller, again passing all the savings onto you, the savvy buyer!
a. The Buy Now button makes it easy . . . just click, enter your contact info (name, phone, email) and click on the icon that matches how you would like to pay (PayPal, PayPal Credit Card, or other Credit Card).

c. Once the simple paperwork is completed, additional earnest money will be due within 48 hours and we will schedule the closing date with you.
d. For using the Buy Now button here, you will receive your Reservation Amount off the listed Purchase Price!
If someone else put a property under contract right before you were able to do it, don’t give up yet! Sometimes contracts do fall through and, in those cases, we award the new contract to the next person in line. In short, if you want to make sure you don’t miss out again, you can enter a backup contract for $499. That is 100% refundable and does apply to the purchase price. If the contract does slide to you, then the additional earnest money is due (usually $500 and also applicable to the purchase price) and we proceed to closing the deal with the Title Company.
Talk to us. It’s as safe as any other real estate transaction. We’ll provide our title search and present you with a warranty deed. For more expensive properties (over $10,000), we’ll help arrange title insurance should you want it. To date, we’ve NEVER had an unsatisfied client.
No. We cover all expenses including closing and recording costs.
No. You are more than welcome to obtain bank financing, or purchase with cash. For more information, visit our Owner Financing page.
No, we do not charge PMI.
If you are closing through our company directly then you will not incure any closing costs (it is complementary for you). If you decide to close with a conventional closing / title company or attorney then you would be responsible for conventional buyers closing costs.
We do not limit the number of people applying for the loan. Application fees vary based on how many apply.
It typically takes only 2-3 business days if you have your down payment for Terms or Cash available for Cash Discounted Price.
Yes. If you buy through a business entity, you will need to personally guarantee the loan. The contract and loan will be made to the business entity.
You are welcome to contact our office and speak with a real person at 1-844-55-CHEAP (24327). Our office hours are Monday through Friday, 8am to 4pm, Pacific Standard Time. Or use our live chat feature on our website. Keep your eye out for the live chat box to click on our website’s homepage or property pages where you’ll see “Need Help? Click here for live support.”
Properties are available on a first-come, first-serve basis and will not be put on hold. When you’re ready to purchase the property you want, you can click on the “Buy Now” button, or call our office at 1-844-55-CHEAP to put the initial money down.
All land sales are final at the time the property is purchased in full or initial money is put down to begin financing. A $200 cancellation fee will be charged should you decide to cancel your contract. Please do your due diligence, and make sure the property you purchase is the one you want for your investment.
Transfer tax is a tax imposed by a state or county to transfer the title of a property. This tax is not imposed by all states, but can’t be waived in those areas that do charge it.
Once you pay off a property, we will execute the property deed to you and send it to the county for recording within 30 days. A copy of the deed will be sent to you as well. After the county has recorded the title change they will send you the original document.
We guarantee a free and clear title will be transferred to you when the property is paid off. This means that we guarantee that the property taxes and any HOA dues will be current, and that there will be no tax liens, judgments, or title defects transferred with the property title at the time the property is paid off.
In an effort to make land investing easier we do not perform credit checks or do any credit reporting. We see credit checks as an unnecessary, prohibitive step in the process of becoming a land owner.
Everyone qualifies for our owner financing option at TheLandOutlet! We don’t perform any credit checks or credit reporting in order to help make it as easy and affordable as possible for you to become a land owner.
You will receive a Property Investment Portfolio within 2 weeks of purchasing your new property. This portfolio will contain your land sale contract to show that you’re purchasing the property, along with helpful information about the property itself. There will also be a customer profile builder that we will need you to fill out and send back to us. This document is extremely important because it is what allows us to correctly record your deed once the property is paid off – so be sure to send it back to us!
When you’re ready to purchase a property from TheLandOutlet™, you can do so in two ways. Through our website simply click on the property’s red “Add to Cart” button. To make the purchase over the phone you can call our office at 1-844-55-CHEAP. We will ask for the following information:
• First and last name
• Email address
• Mailing address
• Phone number
• Credit or debit card you want to use to purchase the property
In our effort to provide the absolute rock bottom pricing we sometimes offer properties through “Assignment of Real Estate Contract”. What that means is that we are assigning our interest in the right ot purchase the property from the original seller. This equitable interest is completely legal and oftentimes closes in a title office or law office providing clear title to the property. This minimizes closing costs and allows us to pass on even more savings to the end buyer.
Absolutely! Anyone is welcome to purchase property from TheLandOutlet™. We ask for the same information whether or not you are located in the United States, and you will receive the same documentation either way. If you prefer not to wait for the mail to arrive, ask us about sending your documents by email. Many of our buyers, both national and international, have found this method even easier and more convenient.
A lot of our buyers find it helpful to use the satellite map when they are unable to physically visit the property. The satellite map will allow you to see the terrain of the area the property, and it can sometimes provide a street view of the property itself. This map is located on the property page in the “Maps” section.
Yes. You are welcome to use the maps and driving directions provided with each property page to go and take a look at the property before completing your purchase. You can locate the maps and driving directions for each property in the “Maps” section of the property page. Call us if you want more mapping help!
It begins with us buying cheap. We buy properties nationwide in large volumes at auction, in tax, estate sales and motivated sellers. You’ll find investment properties on this site are discounted 20% off market value. We want repeat buyers who can make money re-selling the property themselves if they choose.
Our three-pronged goal is:
- Provide Excellent Customer Service via every communication channel available.
- Minimize Risk for Our Customers by researching and providing as much property information as possible. About 90% of the properties we research buying don’t make the cut. We only want high quality land with hassle-free titles. By extending that research arm even further, after we’ve actually purchased the land, the property and listing you finally get to see has been double-filtered for quality, thoroughness, and transparency.
- Offer the Lowest Possible Prices & In House EZ Qualify Financing By keeping our small company incredibly lean and efficient. We have cut out the middle man (real estate agents, brokers, lenders) by selling direct to you and keeping our overhead low by selling our land over the internet. These savings are in turn passed along to you.
Because we buy in large volumes at significant discounts in order to maximize savings to our end buyers we buy them “As-Is” and sell them “As-Is.” We can certainly do soil tests, Perc Tests, Surveys, and the like, but it slows down the process, adds significant costs and we would have to increase the prices. Think of us like a Costco Wholesale. When you buy there with a membership you have to bag your own items at checkout. This is exactly the same. It doesn’t mean there is anything wrong with the property, it’s just the way we buy and sell and offer such savings to our end buyers.
We purchase real property for the sole purpose of reselling it. Everything we know about each parcel is stated in the listing. We generally do a due diligence review and inspection and publish what we find but it’s up to the buyer to perform their own due diligence and confirm what they need to check on. This allows us to pass on significant savings to our end buyers. We include everything that we know about the property in the listings on our website. If the property has an HOA or any CC+Rs, we include these documents in the listing as well. Rest assured, if you have questions about the property that aren’t addressed in the listing, just let us know and we’ll do our best to find those answers for you. We also include the contact information for the county, local utility companies and service providers, so that if you have any additional questions, you can make those calls directly. In our experience, it is more efficient for you to have those conversations directly with the source of this information, so as to ensure you’re asking all of the relevant questions (and follow up questions) that arise while doing your due diligence. We always recommend that our buyers double check any information that is of particular importance to them with the original source of our info.
Property taxes should be posted on each listing page. Unless otherwise stated, all of our properties are free, clear and current at the time of conveyance. We offer a Clear Title Guarantee, among many of our perks for buying through us!
Check with city planning officials to see restrictions on the property. We publish our due diligence but as we buy a large volume at well below market value and pass on the savings to our end buyers, we have to sell them “As-Is, Where-Is” to pass on the savings, so it’s always a good idea to confirm with the local planning and zoning department on that property to confirm.
- Unless indicated in the description, the rural properties we represent do not have utilities. They’re perfect for a solar or wind-powered “green getaway.” We have a dedicated page on our website that provides resources and info on raw land improvement, which touches on some alternatives to traditional utilities (septic, solar, compost toilets, etc.).
We cannot guarantee that we hold the mineral or water rights on any of our properties. Once a buyer has paid in full for a property, we will, upon request, include language in the deed that grants the buyer any rights we do own.
We don’t research mineral or water rights information prior to acquiring our properties. You can research whether mineral or water rights have been transferred to a property in several ways. You can visit the county assessor’s office to pull deed copies and research all of the past deeds on this property or look for property rights in the deed history through a title company. Most often, mineral rights were reserved way back when the property was originally platted.
Unless indicated in the description, mineral rights are not included. We have never found this to be an issue with any of the properties we have sold. (99.9% of the time we don’t have them ourselves).
As we buy all kinds of real estate, residential, commercial, land houses, multi-family it really depends on as the opportunities arise.
Absolutely! There have been some savvy buyers that build a home, a shed, a busienss on their property increasing its value and go on to sell it for a tidy profit. At closing you would collect the difference as you have an equitable interest in your property and have a right to capture that increased value!
Call the County where the property is located. Every County, and every neighborhood, has different permitting rules. By calling the county directly (Typically Planning and Zoning Department), you can here it directly from the horses mouth.
Most of our subdivides are unrestricted land, but we do impose mild land use restrictions. Please see property details for restrictions specific to each property. Generally these restrictions are for the safety and value retention of the neighboring lots, like No Commercial Shooting Ranges, No Junk Yards, etc. Check with the property profile page for more info.
As soon as you purchase the property you are welcome to begin using/developing it, regardless of whether you choose to pay for the property in full or finance it. We only ask that you follow any rules or regulations set by the county (or HOA if applicable) and remain current on your land payments.
We acquire most of our own properties through government auctions, foreclosures, small investment companies, and tax liens. We own or have a legal equitable right to sell all of the properties we have advertised on our website.
You’re welcome to have your property surveyed. All properties on TheLandOutlet™ are undeveloped, and most of them have not been surveyed. You can usually look up a local surveyor in your property’s area. Please keep in mind that TheLandOutlet™ is not responsible for the costs for surveying a property.
We encourage buyers to do their own research about a property before purchasing it, but we do provide some basic zoning information on each property page in the “Property Specifics” section. In this section you can also find information about the property’s road access and slope. For more specific information about zoning on a property you can contact the county where the property is located.
Well and Septic Price Range:
$15K to $40K
Like anything else it always depends on geographic location, the land, the vendor, and the systems you put. You can drill a well 100 feet or one 1,000 feet. Typically the deeper the more water but also depends. For septic systems there are many types of systems out there, but generally speaking:
Wells Range $7,500 to $20k
$15-60 per linear foot

Septic. $5K to $15K
Yes, of course! Please feel free to visit the property at your convenience prior to making your purchase. We encourage this when possible, and provide GPS coordinates, maps, and driving directions on each property page under the “Location” information. If you need more help locating the property, we are happy to help.
Through our phylosophy of streamlining efficiency and passing on great savings to the end buyer, we offer properties nationwide through “self-showings.” But, since it is not a house that needs to be unlocked, you are welcome to visit any of our properties at any time.
However, you are welcome to visit the property you are interested in at any time that’s convenient for you. The street address, GPS coordinates, and directions can be found on the property page under the “Location” information. Feel free to contact us should you need additional assistance locating a property.
All of our listings have parcel maps and GPS coordinates that make them easy to visit. If you think you may need help in locating a property, please contact us and we’ll make sure you are able to find it via free phone apps and more
It’s easy – just head out at your earliest convenience, but please keep the following issues in mind:
- Access: Please check the specific property listing for detailed access instructions and photos. We try our best to make it very easy for you to find our properties. If you have any questions about accessing the lot, call us any time.
- Notify: Please give us at least a few hours of notice before you head out so that we can make sure we have our phone on us in case you have questions while you’re out there or need help finding the lot.
- Property Lines: There is a great app called BaseMap, which works like a GPS for property lines, and allows you to walk the property lines of any parcel on an interactive map. It works off your phone’s GPS so doesn’t need cell service to work.We use this app all the time, and recommend it highly.
- Why is there no address? Most raw vacant or undeveloped land does not have an established address yet until something gets built on it. Property owners typically use GPS coordinates, or google map links to find it.
Backup Plan: A wise man once said, “I love it when a plan comes together.” Actually that man was Hannibal from the A-Team. Plans — and cell phone signals — do sometimes fail though (especially in rural areas), so please consider downloading the printable, one-page Property Summary available on the property listing page, as well as any additional photos and maps that may help direct you to the property.
Oftentimes when its vacant undeveloped (nothing built on it) land, then there is no address assigned to it like a “123 Main Street”. Once you develop or build (as per regulations allowed of course), then an address will get assigned to you. Sometimes you will see a whole subdivision developed and one or two vacant lots that says “0 Main Street” as its address.
