Disclaimer

The guides on this site explain how land transactions generally work in the United States. They are published so that owners can make an informed decision. They are not advice about your property.

Not legal, tax, or investment advice

StraightAcre is not a law firm, not a CPA firm, and not an investment adviser, and nothing on this site should be read as legal, tax, or investment advice. Reading this site does not create an attorney-client relationship or any other professional relationship. Before you act on anything here, talk to an attorney or a tax professional licensed in the state where your property is located.

Not a real estate brokerage

StraightAcre is not a licensed real estate brokerage and does not provide brokerage services. We buy and contract for land as a principal. We do not list property, we do not represent sellers or buyers as an agent, and we do not collect a commission.

Not an appraisal

Any value we discuss with you is our own assessment, informed by county appraisal or assessor data and comparable activity. It is not a licensed appraisal and should not be used as one for lending, probate, or tax purposes.

No guaranteed outcome

Timelines, prices, and closing outcomes described on this site are illustrations of how deals commonly go, not promises about yours. Title problems, heirship, liens, access, and survey issues all change what is possible on a specific parcel.

Accuracy over time

Statutes, county and parish procedures, and appraisal practices vary by state and change over time. We update these guides when we can, but we do not warrant that every detail is current on the day you read it.
