Selling Land Without the Hassle: Inherited Property and Land Ally
In today’s world, land ownership is more complicated than ever. Whether you’ve inherited a rural parcel you’ve never visited, or you’re simply holding on to more land than you need, deciding what to do next can be confusing and time-consuming.
That’s where Land Ally comes in.
As direct land buyers, we eliminate the confusion, the long timelines, and the commissions. Our process is designed to make selling land—especially inherited land—simple, fair, and fast.
Why Direct Land Sales Work
Traditional real estate models don’t serve landowners well. Rural or undeveloped parcels often sit on the market for months with little interest. Real estate agents charge steep commissions and expect owners to clean, clear, or improve the property before listing.
At Land Ally, we offer a direct sale model that bypasses all that:
No agents or listings
No cleanup or improvements needed
No commissions or hidden fees
We evaluate your land, make a fair offer, and if you accept, we close on your timeline.
Specializing in Inherited Land
If you’ve inherited land—especially with multiple heirs involved—you’ve likely faced:
Conflicting opinions on whether to sell
Difficulty coordinating among siblings or relatives
Uncertainty about the land’s value or legal status
We specialize in these complex cases. Land Ally buys inherited land directly, even if it’s co-owned or tied up in probate. We help you untangle legal questions, communicate with other heirs if needed, and move forward with confidence.
Understanding the Probate Process for Landowners
If you’ve recently inherited land, you may be wondering: Can I sell this property right away? The answer depends on whether the land has gone through probate, the court-supervised process of distributing a deceased person’s estate.
What Is Probate?
Probate is the legal process of verifying a person’s will (if there is one), settling their debts, and distributing property to heirs. For land, probate determines who legally owns the property after the original owner passes away.
If the land was only in the deceased’s name, it typically cannot be sold until the probate court formally transfers the title to the heir(s).
The Probate Process in Most States:
Filing a petition to open probate in the county where the deceased lived or where the land is located
Appointing an executor (if named in a will) or administrator (if there is no will)
Notifying creditors and heirs
Inventorying and appraising assets, including real estate
Settling debts and taxes
Transferring ownership of the land to the heir(s)
This process can take anywhere from 3–12 months, and longer if disputes arise.
Simplified Options May Exist
Many states offer streamlined probate or small estate affidavits if the estate value is below a certain threshold (often between $50,000 and $150,000). These faster options can make selling inherited land easier—but they still require legal documentation.
✅ Land Ally Tip: We work directly with probate attorneys and county officials to help landowners navigate this process. In some cases, we can even purchase the property during probate, depending on court approval and local laws.

Many heirs have no idea what their land is worth. That’s why we built the Land Ally Value Estimator—a free tool that gives a ballpark estimate based on:
Location
Acreage
