OWNER FINANCING: We’re making it easy for you! We’re financing these lots for 20% down ($21,980) over a 10-year term at 11.5% fixed rate interest, which equals a monthly payment of $1236.12 + $25 monthly service fee = $1261.12 per month. If you’re looking for a shorter term, please contact us. These lots are being offered as a standard land contract, where ownership is transferred and recorded upon final payment.
OUTSIDE FINANCING: For an outside lender, we recommend First South Farm Credit as an excellent source for a land loan. Call Bret Munson at (318) 381-8309. They provide land loans for 15% down and up to a 30 year term at 8% interest.
Call or text Scott directly at 314.639.9777 or email at info@acretown.com if you’d like to discuss an offer.
FOR SALE BY OWNER: We are investors, and are selling this lot For-Sale-By-Owner. You do not need to submit your offer through a real estate agent, and in our experience we close transactions more quickly and easily by having our dedicated transaction coordinator work directly with the Title Company and Buyers. We will also both save money on commission/fees by cutting out agents as the middle men. However, if you feel strongly about working with a Realtor, then you’re welcome to have them contact us on your behalf.
WHY ARE YOU SELLING IT SO CHEAP? We are often asked why we price our properties at below market value, and the answer is really simple: because we can, and that’s our core business model. We are investors who purchase properties at a large volume and deeply liquidated rates, and by passing this discount on to our buyers, we can sell land quickly . . . and more of it! In fact, our average property only lasts 2-3 weeks on the market (vs. industry average of about 6 months).
DISCLAIMER: We attempt to provide detailed, accurate and up-to-date information in our listings, in order to help our buyers to the best of our ability. However, it ultimately remains the buyer’s responsibility to perform their own due diligence and double check any details that are of significant importance to you including acreage, utilities, build-ability, and approved/allowable use-age for the property. We are happy to help however we can.
