How Our Process Works
Sign a Purchase Agreement
We start by signing a purchase agreement. This is a document that says we agree to buy your land and you agree to sell it. Until you get the money in your bank account, you still own the property. You're in control.
- We agree on a price
- We agree on a timeline
- Everything is in writing
- You keep the property until closing
Meet at a Local Title Company
We then go to a title company. A title company is a third party—a neutral company—that makes sure both of us follow the rules and nobody gets scammed. It's like a referee in a game. They keep everything safe and secure.
- The title company is local to your area
- You can walk in and meet the attorneys in person
- You can bring your own attorney if you want
- Your attorney can watch over the whole transaction
- Everything is 100% secure
Don't know what a title company is? Ask your attorney. They can explain it to you.
Title Search is Completed
The title company does a title search. This means they look at all the records to make sure you really own the land and there are no problems or claims on it. Once they finish, we set a closing date.
- The title company checks all records
- They make sure you're the real owner
- They make sure there are no problems
- Once complete, we pick a closing date
- You get updates throughout this process
Notaries Sign Everything
On the closing date, the title company sends notaries to both of us. A notary is a person who has the power to stamp documents and confirm that we are who we say we are. They make sure we really are the buyer and seller.
- Notaries come to meet both of us
- They check our ID to confirm who we are
- They watch us sign the papers
- They stamp the papers with their official stamp
- They swear an oath to the state that everything is real
Papers Go Back to Title Company
Once the notaries stamp the papers, they send the signed documents back to the title company. Everything is now official and recorded.
- All signed papers go to the title company
- Everything is recorded and official
- The title company keeps everything safe
- No more changes can be made
Transaction Happens
Now that everything is signed and official, the transaction happens. First, you get the money in your bank account. Then, I get the title to the land. That's it. We part ways as friends.
- You get paid first
- I get the title to the land
- The transaction is complete
- We're done
