Survey & boundaries
Confirm acreage, property lines, easements, and access rather than relying only on a tax map or an old fence line.

Homes with acreage
More land can mean more privacy and flexibility, but it also gives you more to verify. Acreage purchases deserve a closer look at boundaries, systems, access, and how the land actually functions.
Acreage due diligence
Know what comes with the house and the land.
The right questions depend on the property. These are some of the details I want buyers to understand before due diligence ends.
Septic & well
Understand where systems are located, their condition, and what inspections or records are available for the property.
Land & drainage
Walk the property when possible. Look at low areas, drainage, tree lines, usable acreage, and how future plans fit the site.
Restrictions & improvements
Review recorded restrictions, permits, and the status of outbuildings, pools, fences, or other improvements that matter to your plans.
Value is property-specific
Acreage does not price like a subdivision home.
Condition, usable land, road frontage, improvements, utilities, and location all influence value. Comparable sales need to be selected and adjusted with those differences in mind.
Acreage search
Looking for more room?
Tell me what you want to do with the land, not just how many acres you want. That makes it much easier to focus the search on properties that actually fit.
