The seller's goal

The family had held the land jointly for years after inheriting it, and none of them lived nearby. They wanted to turn it into investments that would produce income right away, spend as little time on the market as possible, and get the most money for it.

The property

The land has mature pines, ponds and good homesites, which made it attractive to hunters, outdoor enthusiasts and people looking to build.

How we sold it

We marketed the land with signs, online land listings, email auction notices, social media, direct mail, print ads, and personal contact with local and regional buyers and real estate brokers.

Interest ran so high that the property received several strong offers before the auction even started.

Auction day

The auction drew 41 qualified bidders from eight states. The land was offered in two tracts, but one buyer bought the entire property for cash, as-is, with no contract contingencies, so the sale moved forward without delay.
