Sell your land directly, with the terms in writing

What kinds of land do we buy?

We review residential infill lots, vacant parcels, rural and agricultural acreage, inherited land, and land with back taxes. Each parcel is reviewed on its own facts, so we cannot promise an offer on every property. Access, title, taxes, flood exposure, use constraints and buyer demand all affect whether a workable offer exists, and some parcels are not a fit.

What will you need to get started?

• The county and state where the land sits.
• A parcel ID or appraisal-district account number, if you have one. An address or a nearby road also works.
• The names on the deed, and whether anyone has died or is an additional owner.
• Any tax notices, liens, or court papers you have received.

You can start without any of these. We build the review from the public record, and we tell you what we could not confirm.

How does a direct sale compare with listing?

The honest comparison is net proceeds, not headline price. A listing can reach more buyers and may produce a higher price on a desirable parcel, but it usually means a commission, time on the market, and carrying costs such as taxes and insurance while you wait. A direct sale skips the listing, showings and commission, and gives you a written offer to weigh against that. It may produce a lower number than a competitive listing would.

Ask every buyer, including us, for an itemized estimate of what you would receive after payoffs and closing costs. Our guides on selling directly versus listing with an agent and comparing cash land buyers give you a worksheet.

What are our two structures?

• Direct purchase: TechStack Consulting LLC signs the agreement and closes, using lender or transactional funding. Any financing condition is in the agreement.
• Assignment: we sign the agreement, disclose the structure in writing, and assign it to a vetted buyer, who is named in the closing documents.

We tell you in writing which one applies before you sign. In Illinois and Rhode Island we make direct purchases only, unless a licensed broker is involved. The full explanation is on how we buy.

Where are we active?

Our active markets are Texas (Travis, Collin and Harris counties), Florida, Illinois, Alabama, California, Georgia, Washington, Rhode Island and New York. Elsewhere, we accept and review inquiries. That is not a claim that we currently buy in every state. See where we buy for the current list, including our Texas seller hub.

What if your situation is complicated?

Most land sales that stall have a title, tax or ownership question behind them. These guides explain what to collect and ask:

• Selling land with back taxes
• Selling inherited land
• Selling land held in a trust
• Selling land from out of state
• Selling land in a flood zone
• Agricultural exemptions and selling your land

What should you expect in the first conversation?

We start with your goals, not a pitch. We ask what you want from the sale, how soon you need it, who owns the land, and whether anything is unresolved, such as taxes owed, a deceased owner, or a boundary question. Then we gather the public records and send you the written review. You can ask us anything about the structure, the funding, or the closing company before you decide whether to continue. Nobody should ask you to sign anything on a first call.

Does a direct sale mean a lower offer?

Sometimes. A direct buyer takes on risk and cost that a listing leaves with you: the unknowns in title and access, carrying costs, and the work of reselling or assigning. That is reflected in the price, so an offer can come in below what a successful listing might produce. What you get in exchange is certainty about terms, no commission, and a faster path. Whether that trade is worth it is your call, and the right way to decide is to compare net proceeds across your options.

How do we handle taxes owed on the land?

Back taxes are common on land that owners want to sell, and they do not by themselves end a sale. The title or escrow company confirms the payoff, and delinquent taxes are generally settled from proceeds at closing. We factor the confirmed amount into the numbers rather than using it as leverage. If a lawsuit has been filed or a sale date has been set, talk to an attorney first; an inquiry to a land buyer does not pause a deadline. See selling land with back taxes.

When is a direct sale not the right choice?

• You are not in a hurry and your land is in a high-demand area where a listing could attract competing buyers.
• You want the highest possible price and are willing to wait, pay a commission, and carry the land meanwhile.
• Ownership or title is unresolved in a way a buyer cannot work around until it is fixed.
• You do not yet know whether you want to sell. A free review can still help you decide, and it does not commit you to anything.

If a direct sale is not right for you, we say so. See selling directly versus listing with an agent.

What is the next step?

Request the free written parcel review. It is a preliminary public-record summary, not an appraisal, survey or title opinion, and it does not commit you to sell. Our standard delivery target is two business days.
