Buying land online is easier than ever—but that doesn’t mean it’s risk-free. With dozens of websites, Craigslist posts, and too-good-to-be-true listings floating around, it’s easy to get burned if you’re not careful.
At Nunn Land Sales, we’ve completed over 2,400 land transactions across the United States. Along the way, we’ve heard every buyer horror story in the book—contracts that vanished, deeds that never got recorded, and sellers that ghosted the moment money changed hands.
If you’re wondering who you can actually trust, here’s a straight-up guide to spotting red flags, identifying legit sellers, and protecting your investment.
1. Look for Transparency—Not Tricks
If a seller won’t tell you the full parcel number, avoids providing maps or photos, or is vague about the price or deed—run.
✅A reputable land seller will always:
● Share the full parcel number and county location
● Provide GPS coordinates, plat maps, and images
●. Outline all payment terms (cash or owner-financed)
●. Clarify whether the title is free and clear
●. Explain how the deed will be transferred and recorded
At Nunn Land Sales, we keep it simple. Every listing includes these essentials so you can evaluate your land before you buy. You’ll never have to chase down answers—we offer them upfront.
2. Ask: Will I Actually Get the Deed?
The deed is what legally makes you the owner of the land. If you don’t get a deed recorded with the county, you don’t own anything—no matter what the seller says.
Some sellers leave that step to you. Worse, others disappear after the sale and never record anything.
We don’t play those games.
📄 Whether you pay cash or finance it over time, we handle the deed recording and provide confirmation directly from the county. We also walk you through every step of the paperwork so you know exactly what you’re signing.
3. Don’t Let a Credit Score Hold You Back
You don’t need perfect credit or a massive down payment to buy land.
We offer easy owner financing with no credit checks. You pick the plan that works for you, pay your first installment, and the land is yours to use while you pay it off.
This makes land ownership possible for:
● First-time buyers
●. People rebuilding credit
● Long-term investors
●. Off-grid dreamers
●. And anyone who’s been told “no” before
If there’s no name, no face, and no way to talk to someone—it’s not a business you should trust.
We don’t hide behind a faceless website. We put our names and faces on every deal. We’re a family-run company, and we treat our buyers the way we’d want to be treated—with honesty, responsiveness, and clear communication.
Over 2,400 completed land deals later, that approach is still working.
5. Bottom Line: You Can Buy Land Online—Safely
You just need to know what to look for.
✅ Transparent listings
✅ Simple financing
✅ No credit checks
✅ Real people behind the business
It doesn’t have to be stressful. It doesn’t have to be complicated. You just need to buy from someone who does it the right way—every time.
