Title issues, zoning surprises, utility gaps, and closing costs can turn a dream parcel into a costly mistake. We give private buyers the clarity and tools to close confidently — no realtor required.
Liens & Encumbrances
Residential / Agricultural
From legal title chains to buried utility lines — our analysis covers every factor that could affect your purchase, your investment, and your build plans.
We trace the chain of ownership, surface for unpaid tax liens, easements, and deed restrictions that could cloud your title before closing day arrives.
Understanding what you can actually build — or can't — is critical. We pull county zoning codes, overlay districts, and flood zone designations for your parcel.
Is power at the road or five miles away? We map electricity, water, sewer, and road access availability so you know true development costs upfront.
Closing fees, transfer taxes, survey costs, perc tests, and permit fees — we itemize every dollar you're likely to spend before and after the purchase.
Wetlands, floodplain designations, and prior contamination can kill a land deal late in the game. We surface red flags early so you negotiate from a position of knowledge.
We walk you through private seller negotiations, land contract terms, and due diligence contingencies — so you protect yourself without needing an expensive attorney for every step.
Our process is built for buyers who want real answers — not vague disclaimers. Here's how we move from uncertainty to closing clarity.
Share the APN, county, and state. We'll locate the parcel in public records and begin the review process within one business day.
Title history, zoning classification, utility proximity, tax status, and environmental overlays — all researched and compiled into one readable report.
A clear, plain-English document outlining what's clean, what's flagged, and what you need to investigate further before signing anything.
Use our report to negotiate, walk away, or proceed — armed with information that used to require multiple paid professionals to gather.
No retainers, no hourly billing surprises. Pay once per parcel and get a thorough analysis tailored to your needs as a private buyer.
Quick-scan report ideal for vacant lots or rural parcels with straightforward ownership history.
Comprehensive analysis for buyers ready to build, invest, or subdivide. Covers every major risk category.
Everything in Full Due Diligence, plus seller negotiation scripts, contingency language, and contract review support.
Real experiences from people who bought land in the US without a real estate agent — and were glad they had our report in hand.
"I was about to wire money on a 5-acre parcel in central Texas when LandClear flagged an old mineral rights severance I had no idea about. That single find saved me from a huge headache. Worth every penny of the report fee."
"The zoning report alone was eye-opening. The county had changed the classification two years prior and the seller didn't mention it. I ended up negotiating a lower price based on the restricted use. The Full Due Diligence plan paid for itself many times over."
"Buying rural land without an agent felt risky until I used LandClear. The utility proximity map showed that running power to my lot would cost over $18,000 — something the listing never mentioned. I'm glad I had all that spelled out before closing."
