Texas land for investors

If you invest in Texas land, we sell tracts we buy directly from owners, list them on our marketplace, and tell buyers on our list about new land when it comes up. We do not promise returns. We tell you what we know about each tract, including access, flood map and title, so you can run your own numbers.

Who this is for

Buyers looking for replacement property in a 1031 exchange.
Wholesalers and investors with a deal to bring us: see submit a deal.

What to check on any tract

Access: recorded access to a public road, not just a path. See access easements in Texas.
Flood map: which part of the tract is in a high-risk zone. See how to check the flood map.
Title: easements, restrictions and mineral reservations in Schedule B. See how to read a title commitment.
Tax valuation and back taxes: any agricultural valuation, rollback exposure and taxes owed. See how to look up taxes owed.

Tax rules worth knowing

1031 exchanges. The IRS says that when you exchange real property held for business or investment solely for other business or investment property, you are not required to recognize the gain under Section 1031, and that improved and unimproved real property are generally like-kind. Land can be replacement property. The deadlines are strict; see how a 1031 exchange works when you sell Texas land.

Installment sales. If you resell land with owner financing, the IRS treats it as an installment sale when at least one payment comes after the year of sale, and the interest you receive is ordinary income. See installment sale taxes when you owner-finance Texas land.

Talk to a CPA about your own situation. Texas has no state personal income tax.

Can I use land I buy from you in a 1031 exchange?

Land held for investment can be like-kind replacement property under IRS rules, and improved and unimproved real property are generally like-kind. The exchange has strict deadlines and needs a qualified intermediary set up before the sale of your old property closes. Ask a CPA.
