Have you received an unsolicited offer to buy your vacant land? While it may seem like an easy, all-cash deal, it could be a warning sign. Unlicensed "investors" and "developers" are using this tactic to prey on unsuspecting sellers, particularly those who have no idea of their property's true market value. They offer a fraction of what the land is worth, then use an "assignment" contract to flip it for a massive profit—all without the seller's knowledge. This practice is a growing concern in the real estate industry, affecting not only sellers but also title companies and REALTORS®. Always consult a licensed REALTOR® who is bound by a Code of Ethics and can provide a free market analysis, ensuring you get the fair deal you deserve. Don't leave thousands of dollars on the table; protect your investment and consult a professional.
