Frequently Asked Questions
About Our Company
Who is Front Porch Land Group?
Front Porch Land Group is a family-owned land investment company that buys vacant land directly from property owners across the United States. We’ve been in business since 2022 and maintain an A+ Better Business Bureau rating. Unlike many land buyers, we close with actual cash and complete most transactions within 30 to 60 days. We’re real people who answer our phones, follow through on our promises, and treat every landowner with respect.
Where do you buy land?
We buy land in all 50 states. Whether your property is in Florida, Texas, Arizona, Colorado, or anywhere else in the country, we can make you an offer. We work with landowners from coast to coast and handle all the details regardless of where you or your property are located.
Are you a legitimate company?
Yes. We’re a registered business with an A+ Better Business Bureau rating and over a hundred satisfied customers. You can read real reviews from landowners we’ve worked with. We close all our transactions through trusted title companies or real estate attorneys, never through quick online transfers or unusual payment methods. We’re transparent about who we are, how we operate, and what to expect throughout the entire process.
Our Process
How does your land buying process work?
Our process is straightforward:
- Tell us about your property – Share your parcel number, county, and state
- We analyze the property – We research access, zoning, taxes, and market comparables
- Receive your offer – We call you with a fair, no-obligation cash offer
- Review and decide – Take the time you need to feel comfortable
- Title and due diligence – We work with trusted title companies to ensure everything is legitimate
- Close quickly – Most closings happen around 30 days
You don’t need to do anything except show up to sign the paperwork when you’re ready.
Do you actually pay cash?
Yes. We pay actually purchase the properties we put under contract. We’re not contract flippers who tie up your property while looking for another buyer. When we make an offer, we intend to purchase the property ourselves. You’ll receive payment through a trusted title company or real estate attorney, just like any other real estate transaction.
How long does it take to close?
Most of our closings happen around 30 days. In some cases, we can close even faster if you need to. The timeline depends on how quickly we can complete title work, complete our inspections, and coordinate with the title company or attorney. We’ll give you a clear timeline upfront so you know exactly what to expect.
Do I have to pay any fees or commissions?
No. We cover all closing costs. You won’t pay realtor commissions, title fees, or any other costs. The offer we make is the amount you receive.
How long will we be under contract?
Typically, our contracts are for 60 days to build in time for inspections, title, and closing. If there are probate issues we need to work through, our contract time is 180 days. While those are our contract times, we work to close as quickly as possible.
Types of Properties We Buy
What types of land do you buy?
We buy almost any type of vacant land, including:
- Vacant residential lots – Subdivision or infill parcels sitting unused
- Rural acreage – Farmland, timber land, and large recreational tracts
- Inherited property – Land passed down through families
- Landlocked parcels – Properties with no direct road access
- Properties with title issues – Liens, missing heirs, or disputes
- Flood zone or wetland properties – Land with environmental challenges
- Out-of-state holdings – Properties owned by people who live far away
If you own it, we’ll likely make you an offer.
Do you buy landlocked property?
Yes. We buy landlocked parcels. Many land buyers won’t touch properties without direct road access, but we understand how to work with these situations and will make fair offers on landlocked land.
What if my property has liens or title problems?
We buy properties with title issues. Whether you have tax liens, mechanic’s liens, missing heirs, or clouded title, we have experience working through these situations. We can often help resolve title problems as part of the purchase process.
Do you buy land in probate?
Yes. We work with heirs and estates to purchase inherited land, even if probate isn’t complete yet. We understand the probate process and can begin discussions while you work through the legal requirements. Once you have authority to sell, we move forward quickly.
Pricing and Offers
How do you determine your offer price?
We base our offers on several factors:
- Recent comparable sales – What similar land has actually sold for in your area
- Access and utilities – Road access, water, power, and other infrastructure
- Zoning and future use – What the land can be used for
- Property condition – Terrain, vegetation, environmental factors
- Market demand – Current buyer interest in your specific area
We research your property thoroughly and make fair offers based on real market data. We’re honest about how we arrive at our numbers.
Will you offer me the highest price?
We make fair cash offers based on what we can pay and still operate our business. We’re not trying to get the highest possible price for ourselves, but we also can’t pay retail prices that a homeowner might pay. If you want to try for a higher price, listing with a realtor might be a better option. However, many landowners choose to work with us because we close quickly, pay cash, handle all costs, and eliminate the uncertainty of waiting months or years for a buyer.

Working With Us
Do I need a realtor?
No. You don’t need a realtor to sell to us. We handle everything directly with you and work with title companies or attorneys to ensure the transaction is legitimate and secure. You’ll save on realtor commissions and avoid the typical listing process.
What if I live out of state?
That’s not a problem. Many of our sellers live far from their property. We handle all the details remotely and coordinate closings in a way that works for you. You can sign documents electronically or through a local notary, depending on your state’s requirements.
Can I think about your offer?
Absolutely. We never pressure you to make a quick decision. Take the time you need to feel completely comfortable. We’re here to answer questions and provide information, not to rush you into anything.
How do I get started?
The easiest way to start is to reach out with your parcel number, county, and state. We’ll research your property and schedule a brief call to discuss your situation and answer any questions. From there, if you’d like to move forward, we’ll prepare an offer for your review.
You can contact us through our website, by phone, or by responding to any communication we’ve sent you. We’re here when you’re ready to talk.
