BBB, reviews, title company closings, and physical address — due diligence steps.
Postcards and cold calls aren't automatically scams — but not every vet land buying company is equal. Use this vetting checklist before you sign a purchase agreement or send deed copies.

Insist on Title Company Closing
Prefer to talk? Call (715) 504-0805
Legitimate buyers close at a licensed title company or real estate attorney — never in a parking lot with a cashier's check from a stranger. Title company holds escrow, pays liens from proceeds, and records deed.

15 Questions to Ask Any Land Buyer
- Which title company will close this transaction?
- Who pays seller closing costs?
- What is the exact closing date?
- How are liens and back taxes handled?
- Is the offer contingent on anything?
- Can I review settlement statement before signing deed?
- Do you charge any upfront fees? (Answer should be no.)
- How many land parcels have you purchased?
- Can you provide references or reviews?
- Will I need to travel to the property?
- What deed type will I sign?
- How is earnest money handled?
- What happens if title finds a problem?
- Is your offer revocable after I sign?
- How do I reach you after hours?
The highest offer on paper is meaningless until you see who pays title, escrow, and taxes — and when you actually get wired.
