What the seller intake form collects
The form asks for the basics a qualified reviewer would need to understand your parcel: location or APN, approximate size, road access, utility availability, zoning if you know it, ownership structure, and your general price expectations or timing. None of these fields are tests — rough answers are fine, and 'I'm not sure' is a perfectly acceptable answer.
You'll also share your contact information so our team can follow up with questions. Providing a phone number does not sign you up for text messages; SMS updates are a separate, optional checkbox you can choose to check or leave unchecked.
What we look at during a review
Every submission is reviewed by a real person against builder-focused criteria: access, utilities, topography, zoning context, nearby development activity, and how the lot compares to what builders in that market are currently looking for. Reviews are educational and property-first — we look at the land before we talk about any transaction.
A review may result in a follow-up conversation, a request for documents like a survey or tax card, or an honest note that the lot may be a harder fit for today's builder demand. Not every lot will be a match, and no review creates an obligation on either side.
What to gather before you start
You can complete the form in a few minutes with nothing but the property address or county. That said, a few items can make the review faster and more accurate: the assessor parcel number (APN), a recent property tax statement, any prior survey or perc test, and notes on known issues such as easements, flood zones, or access disputes.
If any of these are missing, that's normal — many owners inherit land without paperwork. Flag what you don't know and a qualified professional (title company, surveyor, or county office) can often help fill gaps later in the process.
What a submission is — and is not
Submitting your lot is a request for information and review, not a listing agreement, not an offer, and not a commitment to sell. Any next step would be discussed with you directly, in writing, and reviewed at your pace. We encourage every landowner to consult qualified legal, tax, and real estate professionals before making any decision about their property.
Practical examples
- An inherited 2-acre parcel with unknown zoning — the form captures what's known, and the review flags what should be verified with the county.
- A lot with dirt-road access — access notes help the review consider how builders typically treat similar lots in that market.
- An owner with a firm timeline — timing context helps set honest expectations about what a sale process may look like.

Frequently asked questions
Does submitting my lot obligate me to sell?
No. Submitting the seller intake form is a request for review and information only. It is not a listing agreement, not an offer, and not a commitment to sell. Any next step would be discussed with you directly, in writing, and at your pace.
What if I don't know my zoning, APN, or utility details?
That's normal — many owners inherit land without paperwork. Answer what you know and flag what you don't; rough answers are fine. A review can often identify which items should be verified with the county, a title company, or a surveyor.
Will I be added to a text-message list when I enter my phone number?
No. Providing a phone number does not sign you up for texts. SMS updates are controlled by a separate, optional consent checkbox that is unchecked by default, and you can submit the form without opting in.
Is the review a guarantee of an offer or a sale?
No. A review is an educational, property-first look at your parcel against builder-focused criteria. It may lead to a conversation, a request for documents, or honest feedback that the lot may be a harder fit — and not every lot will be a match.
Is my information kept confidential?
Yes. Submission details are used to review your property and follow up with you. We do not sell or share mobile opt-in information with third parties for their own marketing; see our Privacy Policy for details.
