Cost-Effective Way of Selling Your Land

In the real estate world, latest reports show that buying a piece of land is up to 70% higher compared to the last 10 years. This situation affects both buyers and sellers alike. To buyers, this means it is more difficult to acquire a property without proper financial help. To sellers, this means it is more difficult to sell a property without reducing the cost. A number of vendors are therefore looking for alternatives to traditional ways of selling.
Agents’ or brokers’ fee remains the biggest factor of the increase in cost. The costs for selling a property include stamp duty, survey fees, removal costs, mortgage arrangement, agent fees and marketing. Agent fees take the biggest portion followed by marketing depending on how the vendors market his land. With the cost associated in completing what you considered as a close deal, the task of finding a serious buyer becomes more challenging.
It is no surprise that vendors have looked for alternative ways of marketing their property. As a land owner, you can opt to sell your property yourself and use the listing websites. In today’s technology, the Internet is obviously the best place for buyers to find a land to buy. To buyers, searching the internet is much more convenient than looking for properties by foot as it saves time and money. Land owners can take advantage of the situation.
Take photos of your property. The more photos – the better. If you can capture the buyers’ attention with vivid picture of your property then you have more chance of selling your land. Don’t forget the description. Tell buyers about your land and no details should be left untold. When you put your property in free listings, you have to know that you are joining hundreds of others who are just like you. So it is imperative that your property has left an impression to the buyer before he clicks on the next listing.
Another cost-effective way of selling your land is to sell it to a private land investor. This is better than putting your property in free listings and waiting for a buyer to come. Lucas Properties LLC is a private property investor who buys any types of properties with cash. They are not realtors so there will be no commissions and absolutely no fees. Contact Lucas Properties for a speedy and hassle-free sale.

The Negative Effects of Foreclosure and How to Prevent It


Foreclosure is a legal process where the mortgage holder gains ownership to your land and has the right to sell the property in which proceeds will be used to pay off the mortgage if you are in payment defaults. It usually occurs when you have failed to make the payments and have violated the mortgage terms. There are two types of foreclosure: judicial and non-judicial. Judicial foreclosures are overseen by court and it involves the lender filing a lawsuit for the right to foreclose the property. It is an expensive process and very time consuming which is why most lenders prefer the non-judicial foreclosure. Non-judicial foreclosure, on the other hand, is much simpler and does not require court intervention.

In both process, the land owner receives legal notice of foreclosure. The notice will then be published in local papers and the property will be sold in an auction. Foreclosure processes may vary from different states but the mortgagor can initiate the proceedings as early as 30 days after the missed payment.

Foreclosure can have a devastating impact to land owners. Bad credit score is probably the most damaging results of foreclosure. When your land is foreclosed by a lending company, you are at risk of having a bad credit score. Opening new lines of credit and getting new loans are almost impossible. The size of impact depends on whether your debt was forgiven and the amount you still have to pay before the foreclosure. Bigger delinquent amount can result to a more damaging credit score. Another consequence to foreclosure is loss of property. As mentioned earlier, the lender will take ownership of the land that a loan was approved for. If the land holds a sentimental value to the owner, he can bid at the auction and attempt to purchase the land. However, this is very unlikely because the land will be more expensive as compared to paying off the loan in the first place. If you have been foreclosed in the past, you might find yourself in trouble keeping and finding new employment. Some employers consider a good credit score as basis for employment and a bad credit score as grounds for termination.

You can actually prevent foreclosure by selling your land. Although, loss of property is unavoidable, this is less damage compared to getting a bad credit score or being fired from your job. With a good credit score and stable job, you can acquire new properties in due time. Contact Lucas Properties LLC if you want to sell your land quickly. They will give you cash for your land in “as is” basis so you don’t have to worry about spending money for repairs or cleaning.

Finding a Buyer for Your Land


The cost of selling a property falls into three categories – preparation, selling fees, and conveyance. There is no fixed amount as to how much the entire selling process will cost, it will depend on the property itself and how you choose to sell it.

There are two options in finding a buyer for your land. You can find a buyer yourself or use an agent. If you use an agent, it will be more expensive however the agent will take responsibility for price negotiation, advertising and making face to face contact with potential customers. Finding the buyer yourself is a lot cheaper however you need to invest more time and effort to make all the necessary arrangements and deal with any possible problems.

If you decide to find a buyer yourself, you need to determine the asking price for your property. To determine the market value of your property, you can approach local estate agents who offer free evaluations or you can find about the price of land sales with similar features in your area. Once you’ve determine the asking price, you will want to consider advertising. Fortunately, you can advertise your property for free. You can make use of the property directories and classifieds which offer free listing. You can put a “For Sale by Owner” sign on the land itself or you can place ads in shop windows or any establishments where it is allowed. The advantage of this type of advertising is that your property will be advertised across a wider area of probable buyers but the setback is it could literally take years to sell your property.  That means more taxes on your shoulders and more ongoing maintenance. 

Selling your land through an agent can be very costly. All agents are looking for a commission regardless of the value of your property.  To meet this demand they will up the cost of your property causing it to sit on the market for a much longer period of time.

These two options can definitely help you sell your land. But, if you want to sell your land faster and with less hassle, you can check out Lucas Properties LLC. As private land investors, we will offer cash on your land in its “as is” condition so you don’t have to worry about advertising, schedule showings or paying commissions.

Farmland and Ranches and Lakes, Oh My!

Here’s a question that not many land owners have had the privilege of asking themselves. Yet, to those who can, it’s a problem for which there is a quick and viable solution. And that question is (drum roll, please), “What am I to do with all of my land?” And by all, that means the three rural acres in Kentucky, the oceanfront parcel in Florida, the ranch in Arizona, and the suburban lot in upstate New York. No doubt about it, you’re a national traveler who has had his fair share of land development plans that didn’t pan out, for one reason or another. Nevertheless, that’s not the end of the story for you or your investment. Though, you may not have the time and attention to give to the sale of each individual parcel of raw land that you own, you can still sell your land quickly and without stress on your quest to make a profit.


Selling your land to a private land investor has many, undeniable perks. They include the fact that you can sell all of your land to one investor—completely avoiding the constraints that traditional sales often place on your time. Sales to an investor will generally only yield you a profit of 5% to 25% of the fair market value of your land; however, it will come to you as actual cash! If you owe debt on your land(s) in the form of back property taxes or liens, for example, those notes will be paid in full on your behalf by the end of the sale. Those are three major advantages over FSBO (For Sale by Owner) and the MLS (Multiple Listing System) that land owners all over the country are jumping for joy about. And the fourth? Well, your closing date for each property would be within seven days or less of your decision to sell.

If you have questions about selling your land or what to take the first step, contact Lucas Properties, LLC for more information.

Things to Consider When Selling Your Land

Owners of raw lands typically have strong feelings about the value of their parcels. When you decide to sell your land, the emotional attachments that prompted you to purchase the land have to be set aside in order for you to successfully sell it. Viewing your property from an objective point of view will help you to eliminate any misconceptions about what buyers expect versus what you can offer. Selling your land can be achieved by the process of FSBO (For Sale by Owner), by realtor-client relationship (by hiring a real estate agent), by selling directly to a developer, or by selling to a private land investor. In all cases, the buyer will consider one major factor when bidding or proposing an offer on your land.


Highest and Best Use

The utmost value of a parcel of land hinges upon its highest and best use. Highest and best use is defined by the use of raw land that is the most plausible, the most possible to develop, and returns increased value to the land. But, what is tricky about this is that highest and best use is truly a matter of perception. For example, the highest and best use for a newlywed couple could be for the building of a new home, for a non-profit organization it could be a neighborhood playground, and for a developer it could be a strip mall. The concluding judgment by each potential buyer is something that they will consider to be logical and worthy to implement; even, if it doesn’t fit your perspective of the use of your land. Here’s the inside scoop on some of the determining factors that could be used to determine the value of your land.

Size
The size of your lot is the first factor that potential buyers will use to determine whether or not buying your land would be a good purchase for them. The reasoning for this is simple. While numerous homes have been built on an acre of land or less, a superstore or a home improvement warehouse would need much more space.
Shape

For example, a wide floor plan cannot be built on a narrow lot. So, the shape of your land in conjunction with a buyer’s development plans will be considered.
Quality

Quality is determined, mainly, by the standard of suitable land—both dry parcels and waterfront property—in the area in which you live. Both the surface and subsurface conditions of your land are important. Unseen agricultural issues can delay or deter development and should be immediately disclosed to potential buyers.

Being that the needs of buyers usually differ substantially, it’s beneficial to know that your greatest option in guaranteeing the sale of your land would be to consult with a private land investor. Visit the We Buy Land tab where Lucas Properties, LLC, an expert land investor, can equip you with further information on selling your raw lands and waterfront property.

Too Busy for Your Inheritance? Try this Distressed Property Solution

It’s official. Your selfless and caring aunt has bestowed an inheritance upon you; massive pieces of farmland in a small agricultural town 87 miles away from your home. You’re extremely touched, you feel extremely loved, and yet… you have no idea what to do with any of it. How are you supposed to manage it? Who is supposed to take care of it? You can hardly imagine that it’s really your responsibility now. Between your spouse and the kids, work, household responsibilities, and the ‘me time’ that you’ve been trying to carve out for the last three years, this land might grow into a forest by the time you’re able to travel to see it.


Hope as you might, it just seems that Aunt Beth’s dreams of grandeur for flourishing corn fields and crops just don’t quite fit into your lifestyle. In fact, what would fit into your lifestyle is if you could turn potential vegetables into cash without all of the hard work; especially, since your dreams are more in favor of starting a savings account for your toddler, buying your teen an automobile (that would certainly cut back on your chauffeuring duties), or making sure that your college bound kid won’t have to work a job while diligently studying his coursework (keep your future doctor focused on those medical books!).

So, considering that you’ve very little room in your life leftover for a farming adventure, you also might not have time to spend with a real estate agent who would focus on selling your land on the MLS. With that in mind, contacting a private land investor who will assess your land and bypassing the waiting game that is the real estate market could be the best option for you. If you’re interested in finding out how you can sell your land within one week’s time, Lucas Properties, LLC is an expert land investor who can give you answers to your questions. Lucas Properties has helped many people with similar distressed property issues while helping them to understand the benefits of making a raw land sale via this method. Such benefits include the absence of closing costs and fees, the expert completion of land transfer and sale finalization, the payment of back property taxes and liens on the seller’s behalf, and a real cash payment.

So, don’t fret any longer over acres that you may never set foot on. Instead, put that energy where you really want to put it—into caring for your children and their future. In fact, you should consider putting some of that energy into the quiet time that you might find to tell them about your favorite memories of your loving aunt.

Selling Your Land in the Winter Months

Most people can admit that it’s a beautiful sight to see snowflakes falling from the sky. And that it’s almost surreal to wake up to inches of snow draped across empty tree branches, against the glow of the rising sun. It’s the kind of incentive that succeeds in drawing you outside into the cold when you’d really rather stay inside. And it’s the joy of countless, excited children wherever snowmen can be made. But, as an adult and a land owner, it’s not as enjoyable to think of your newly listed raw land buried twelve inches beneath the cold and the wet. Why is that? Its because it can be hard for potential buyers to imagine the possibility of development on land that they cannot see. However, there are two things that you can do to aid their imaginations:

Set Markers

Setting markers at the corners of your parcel will help to define property lines during the winter months. This would require the specialty services of a surveyor or assessor who has the equipment and know-how to properly measure your site. Because the ground might be frozen and too hard to dig and cement vertical posts for maximum visibility, you may have to use creative methods to mark your land; i.e., small boulders or logs that snow can easily be brushed off of during a showing of your parcel.
Use Photographs

Ideally, you already have detailed photographs of your land that were taken during the months when snow does not fall. Or, maybe you have photographs that were given to you from when you, yourself, purchased the land. If so, you can use those to show to potential buyers and make a successful sale during the winter months. But, if you don’t have any photos of your snow buried treasure, don’t fret! This is when you’ll have to especially emphasize the amazing qualities of your land and the surrounding neighborhood. Don’t worry. You’ll find the right words to say.
If, somehow, you find that you’re still having trouble selling your land in the winter season, you can explore the option of waiting until spring to entertain buyers. You can also explore the option of selling your land to a land investor who will assess your land information and potentially make you a quick sale, quick cash offer. Consult with expert private land investor, Lucas Properties, LLC for how you can sell your land during the winter months. You might soon find that you like Old Man Winter more than you thought!

Parents! Increase Your Budget

Nurturing children to maturity through care and education is, historically, expensive. If you’re the parent of an infant, you know that diapers (the good kind) and wipes (the smell good kind) require a significant amount of couch change for the good of baby’s skin. If you’re the parent of a teenager, the demand on your wallet is for clothing, cell phones, tablets, and game consoles. You might joke around when you speak with your friends about the high cost of so many things, these days, but harbor secret fears about how you’re going to keep your children comfortable and give them the things that they hope for. Well, there is no need to worry. There are a number of things that you can do to alleviate the cost of raising your children while not compromising their happiness.


Downsize
Here’s a nifty but practical cliché, decrease now to increase later. If you mortgage a large beautiful home in an exclusive gated community, many people would say that that’s great! But, if you’re in debt, are secretly struggling every month to make ends meet, and are slowly chopping away at your children’s college funds or can’t save for college… well, that’s not so wonderful. It’s no fun to be house poor. So, you might want to consider if it’s to your advantage to move your family into a smaller home in the same school district (at least, for now) where the mortgage is less straining and, too, the HOA fees are little or non-existent. Taking steps to downsize now could give you the wiggle room you need to restructure your financial future and pave the way for lasting financial security for your children.
Eliminate Unnecessary Household Expenses

If you think about it, you may not really need that subscription that you have for movie services, newspaper delivery, or hard copy magazines. With your local library renting movies to library patrons for free, and most newspapers and magazines publishing electronic versions for free, you could save bucks that you can put towards learning videos and toys, new school shoes, or, even, braces. Every little bit counts. Sit down with your family and make a list of what you must have and what you absolutely can do without. You might be surprised at how much you can potentially save.

Consider Selling Your Land

Selling your land or extra home in lieu of the expense of upkeep, security, and property taxes might be a good choice for you if the cost of ownership is limiting the quality of your everyday life. If what it costs you in liens, property taxes, and maintenance to own secondary land is taking a noticeable chunk out of your budget, you can contact a private land investor for further information on selling your raw land—whether it is a lot, farmland, hunting ground, ranch, lakefront or oceanfront parcel). You can sell your land for a speedy cash profit, experiencing the benefit of increase while eliminating property expenses.

Moving? Selling Your Lakefront Property is Easy!

In some parts of the country, one of the benefits of owning undeveloped lakefront land means always having a sure camping ground for spontaneous family fun, staying filled up on Omega 3’s (because the fish are always biting), and always having a place to dive in and cool down. All wonderful activities that, surely, have created amazing memories for many; that is, until all of their favorite things to do are gone with the falling of the autumn leaves and the freezing temperatures that, eventually, still the water. If that describes you and you always get bummed at the thought of storing the RV and the tents away for the winter—if you’re daydreaming about selling your land, packing up the family, and heading to a warmer climate and year round water sports—then you might benefit from contacting a private land investor.

A private land investor can help to make your daydream a reality. Sure, there will be many more tasks to accomplish besides selling your land before you make a big move but, by eliminating the waiting game that couples the real estate market, a land investor can help to make your life a little bit easier. What’s most unique about selling to a land investor is the fact that you will not have to pay for anything and everything will be paid for you on your behalf; that is, closing costs, liens, property taxes, and fees, for example. Additionally, you’re guaranteed a closing date and finalized sale for cash in seven days. Cash? Yes, it’s true. Cash that can help you with the new adventure ahead. Sometimes, we can think that our next steps in life are more difficult than they really are. But, if you’ve decided that you’re ready to take a step in your life that you’ve never made before, Lucas Properties would be honored to be a part of your journey.

Pricing Your Vacant Land for Sale

Much like finding a price for residential and commercial property, pricing vacant land requires the same research and comparison efforts while taking into consideration additional variables. Variables like the size, location, and type of parcel you are attempting to sell. And whether or not your parcel used to be a landfill or neighbors a busy plastics factory is important information to note, as well; for, this, based on a buyer’s development plans, might affect the amount of money that he is willing to pay for the land—whether positively or negatively. Here are few tips to help you along the way as you seek to competitively price your land for sale.


How to Start

To begin, look for comparable parcels of land with the same zoning on the Multiple Listing System (MLS), and on local real estate websites. Of those that have basic similarities with yours, pinpoint those that are relatively the same size and have the same positive or negative attributes. Those attributes would include water and sewerage connection or the lack of, electrical connection or the lack of, and mature or immature landscaping, for example. Then, make a list of the prices that those lands are selling for along with clear notes that briefly describe each property.

Be attentive when making your comparisons. Be sure to take notice if, of two listed land parcels, the parcel that is higher priced is closer to city attractions, is close to a lake, or is in a specific city. This will give you an idea of what is more attractive to buyers and will help you to make a more informed estimate on what your property should be priced at.

Limit your search to listed land that has only been on the market six months or less. Because the real estate market is so closely connected with the economy, and because the trend of what is popular among buyers can change quickly, it’s best to focus on the most recent listings. You can even go a step further and check property records in your county for the final pricing of recently completed sales.

With all of the information that you collect, you should be able to determine what would be a reasonable and competitive price to market your land for. Even if you calculate an old fashioned average (by adding the pricings of five lots of land together, for example, and then dividing the total combined pricings by the simple number five), you can come up with a figure that satisfies you and potential buyers.

Another Option

If, for some reason, the task of researching comparables becomes too much for you, there is another option. Selling your land is still a possibility if you connect with a private land investor who will make you a cash offer. Some land investors, like Lucas Properties, LLC, are experienced in making cash offers while securing quick closing dates—which can save you time, effort, and energy. Additional benefits of this option include buyer paid closing costs and the dissolving of back property taxes and liens on your behalf.

So, as you begin this journey of selling your land, know that you are not alone. If you have any questions, the experts at Lucas Properties, LLC can answer your questions.

Sell Your Land to Fund Your Mission Trips

This time of year, many people are making plans to participate in summer missionary and humanitarian efforts. With the weather warming up in many parts of the country, so is the zeal for volunteerism and good will to be administered in our country and, even, in the most remote parts of the world. Even, entire families are now preparing to pack up and store away their normal, everyday lives for unseen adventures and new memories. With that in mind, there is essentially one important thing that all of these people have considered before officially setting off into the sunset. And, that is, that it takes money to set off on monumental journeys like these.
To generate cash for volunteer trips, some have been able to rely on their loved ones to fund their endeavors. Others have worked hard and saved, beforehand. And, still, others have put together yard sales and estate sales; many have sold their cars or plan to rent out—or, even, sell—their homes. However, one of the few ideas that have been considered to increase cash flow is the profit that can be made from selling raw land.
Raw land is unused, undeveloped land. You may own raw land; but, you may have never used it and you may not plan to ever use it. However, it is your responsibility to maintain it and pay the property taxes on it—even, while you’re away. Chances are that, in your absence, it can become overgrown and sprout penalties from the city or state for negligence against policies to maintain it. Perhaps, you don’t know of anyone who you trust will care for it while you’re gone.
You might consider that one of the options that would suit this situation perfectly would be to sell your land to a private land investor. A good private land investor, like Lucas Properties LLC, would pay you anywhere from 5% to 25% of the fair market value of your land and would pay you cash for it within seven days’ time. If you’re concerned about having to come out of pocket for liens that you owe on the land or property taxes that are due or closing costs to pay, you don’t have to be. That’s because, another benefit of selling your land to a private land investor is that all of these things will be paid in full on your behalf. You would owe nothing—you would only get paid.
This is, both, a convenient and profitable measure to take if you’re still in need of money and, too, if you plan to be away for an extended period of time. The fewer things that you would have to attend to, of the life that you’re leaving behind, the better your missionary experience will be. And, too, the more cash that you have on hand when you’re miles away from home, the better. Think these things over diligently. And may you thoroughly enjoy the experiences ahead of you.

Tips to Selling Your Land

Many owners of land are questioning whether or not they should sell their lot, their farmland, their hunting grounds, or their waterfront property, for example. The prospect of turning a profit from something that they aren’t using is appealing. And, sure, a decision to sell can be a great idea; however, deciding how to sell shouldn’t be entered into lightly. For starters, the basic question that one should ask is, “Do I want the highest price or do I want to sell fast?” Almost immediately, most people will say that they want the highest price. But, after six months or so on the real estate market, that statement quickly turns into, “Hey, I want to sell fast!”

Another question to ask is, “How did I acquire this land?” The answer to this holds a lot of weight in why or how a landowner would sell his or her land. There have been people who have learned that they have acquired land by one means or another that they never had the desire to own, the means to provide for, or the desire to maintain. Also, in most recent years, there are some who purposely or happily gained land ownership but weren’t able to start or finish construction on the land. It began to lack use for them. If you’re one of these people, then you have a good reason to sell your land. And not just sell it; but, sell it for cash!

So, what’s the next step? Well, just like when you want to sell anything, you should want to make the best impression possible. Here is a guideline that you might find useful:

CLEAN HOUSE… so to speak. Clean your land! Put your best foot forward. A general rule of thumb when selling your land to anyone is to make sure that your land is clean of natural and man-made debris. That means that you may have to do some collecting and dumping of trash, mowing, chopping, and weeding, if necessary, to make your land look its best.

DEFINE PROPERTY LINES. People are visual creatures, and they like to see clearly what they are buying. You can define property lines via a hired surveyor, or you can make it a DIY project and do it yourself! Installing white painted posts at the corner of each parcel of your land, for example, will make property lines visible to viewers.

KNOW YOUR LAND. Gather zoning, utility, and location information that is relevant to your land and its position. Be sure to highlight the best features about its location, and be ready to answer questions in a knowledgeable manner.

BE REASONABLE. Consider selling your land on easy terms. The easier the prospect of the sale, the more interested the buyer.

CHOOSE YOUR BUYER! This is the part where you can make cash fast! If you choose a good private investor, that investor will pay all liens, fees, and closing costs associated with selling your land, and will close on the deal within 7 days. That’s in comparison to selling your land on the real estate market (MLS), paying out a commission to an agent, and waiting… waiting… waiting for your land to be sold. And FYI, a good private investor to consider is Lucas Properties LLC who will offer you a cash payment of 5%-20% of the market value of your land while, also, paying those expenses that you would normally incur.

Hopefully, this information has been helpful to you. You can definitely succeed in your endeavor to sell your land!

Quick ways to sell your Raw Land

Landowners sometimes ask themselves whether they should sell their land or not. There are many financial and other factors that need to be determined before you consider selling your land. You may also need to choose between getting the highest price and selling fast. However, selling your land for the highest price doesn’t always mean you’ll get the most money at the end of selling process.

How and why did you get this land?

If you think there is no reason to hold onto your land, then it is a good decision to sell it. For instance, if you have enough assets outside of the property then you can consider selling your land as a quick cash option. If you owned this land for construction purposes and you don’t have the funds to continue to build, you should consider selling your land for cash. If you have sentimental attachments to your land then you will need to decide first whether you can afford to keep the land just for sentimental reasons.

When you finally decide that you really want to sell your land, then prepare your land for a fast sale and a convenient cash sale. Consider these guidelines for the potential sale of your land.

• Clean your land. It will help buyers to see clearly. Your land should not contain things such as burning piles of brush, old fences or puddles of mud. If there is not a driveway then outline one. One day labor can help you to sell your land faster. Make it easy for your buyers to see the land in it’s best light. Clear sight of your land will attract buyers.
• Make property boundaries visible around your land so that people can know what they are going to buy. If you cannot do this yourself then you can hire a surveyor. You can make bounderies with white post at each corner of parcel, spray paint or you can use wood from your land to show clearly where those property lines are.
• Gather information about your land because buyers can ask many questions and it is best to be knowledgeable. Things such as, zoning, nearest utilities and location of any nearest store can be helpful to give value to your property. Nobody likes uncertainines, you should always be able to answer the buyers questions.

Offering easy terms when selling a house can be more trouble than it is worth but in the case of selling your land you can use those easy terms as a way to add value and maybe even raise the price of your land. Following these simple strategies can help you get the best price when you sell your land.

When you need to sell your land fast rather than for the highest dollar, you should consider selling it a private land investor. While you will not get full market value for your property, you will be relieved of the headaches associated with selling land on the MLS and selling land by owner. Most private land investors take care of all liens, fees and closing costs and the deal can be sealed in as little as 7 days. Hope, these simple and quick guidelines will help you to sell your land.
