In the market for rural and off grid raw land? Oftentimes vacant land doesn’t have an address. Here’s how you can use GPS coordinates and Google Earth to find and view raw land.

Want to buy land, but not sure how? Afraid of screwing it up?

Trust me, I get it. We’ve purchased hundreds of properties and some of them were a bit hairy. We once purchased a property in Hawaii that had a tree that kept dropping limbs on the neighbor’s fence (damn you Albizia tree!), and there was a  branch that even looked like it could have fallen on his house! That could have been a very expensive mistake. Luckily, we were able to sell it to a local who was able to deal with the tree and stop any further damage.

So how do you buy land and NOT screw it up? We have a ton of resources available to buyers. In this video, Miles and I share the tips and tricks that we’ve learned over the years and teach you how to become a smart land buyer.

As you may have noticed, Wilco Land offers installment pricing aka ‘owner carry’ or ‘seller financing’ terms for future land Buyers. How does that work and what does that mean? 

It’s all discussed in this round table video for you here: What is an installment sale?

Synopsis: Wilco Land owns all of the land we’re selling. So if you want to buy a property with a down payment and make monthly payments after that, then you can expect Wilco Land to finalize the details of the sale with you and get closing instructions/docusign paperwork out to you. Once you’re closed (down payment and paperwork signed), we set up an account for you on Geekpay to view your property balance, change payment info, sign up for autopay, etc. Then, once you have finished the final payment (paid in full), our closing team will again work with you to transfer title/ownership with the county you purchase land in. Our office handles the paperwork, etc. and simply needs the customer (you!) to confirm the newly created deed looks good before we send it in!
