If you own land in Florida and you’re wondering, “how to sell my land myself in Florida?”, you have a couple of choices. In this blog post, you’ll read about what your choices are and how to know which choice is best for you.
Option #1: List With a Real Estate Agent (The Most Common Route)
The most common choice that land sellers have is to sell through a real estate agent. Agents will list your property and find buyers for it, and then negotiate on your behalf and help you with the paperwork.
The problem is, many property owners discover that there aren’t a lot of land buyers, and few real estate agents are truly “experts” in buying and selling land. As well, if an agent is able to find a buyer, you will have to pay commissions to the agent, which can take a meaningful bite out of your proceeds.
Another choice is for sellers to sell land themselves.
Option #2 is to sell the land yourself (often called FSBO, for sale by owner).
You do the same work as the agent, which means pricing the land, writing the listing, fielding calls, and handling the contract and closing paperwork. In exchange, you save the agent’s commission.
But many of the same problems exist here, too: Land sellers who choose to sell their land themselves soon find that there really aren’t a lot of vacant land buyers out there. The average person just doesn’t buy vacant land.
Fortunately, there is another route, and it’s one we can help with. Read how it works in our guide to the options for selling your land, or get in touch if you’d like to talk it through.
Option #3: Sell Your Raw Land To Us – We’re Cash Land Buyers
Here’s the third option – and the option that most people aren’t even aware of. Instead of listing your property (either through an agent or on your own), you can simply sell your property directly to a land-buying company (like what we do here at FL Land Buyer). Selling this way allows you to quickly dispose of your land, put money in your pocket, and still avoid paying commissions that you’d normally have to pay to an agent.
Sellers view this third option as a superior strategy because of the following reasons:
- It’s faster – a land buying company that buys land directly from a seller can know right away if the land is right for them, and a good land company can usually get the funding right away. There’s no listing, and there’s no showing the land to many prospective buyers.
- It costs less – an agent will charge commissions, but when you sell directly to FL Land Buyer, there are no commissions or fees.
- It’s far less work – listing your property can be a lot of work, even if an agent does it. But selling your vacant land directly to a land-buying company can give you a rapid close so you can walk away from the land when you want to.
Wondering how to sell your land yourself in Florida? A direct sale to a land-buying company may be the simplest route. Many sellers don’t realize this option exists. If you’d like to see what the process looks like from first call to closing, we walk through it step by step here.
