Frequently Asked Questions
Practical answers about buying, selling, financing and managing land in South Georgia.
All questions
What kinds of land do you sell?
We list and sell irrigated and non-irrigated farmland, pastureland, planted-pine timberland, hunting tracts, small acreage and homesites across South Georgia. New tracts come in on a regular basis — call or email for the latest list, and browse what is available on our Land for Sale page.
Do you buy land outright?
Yes — we buy land and timber in South Georgia. We specifically want planted pine timber tracts of all sizes from Macon south to the Florida line, and we are looking for a 2,000–3,500 acre farm, partially or fully irrigated, for a well-qualified client. See Sell Your Land.
Can you help me finance a land or commercial property purchase?
Yes. We originate private-money loans through individual investors and investment groups: up to 65% loan-to-value on good commercial property and up to 55% on land, with one-to-five-year terms. Minimums are $100,000 on commercial and $150,000 on land — although in Georgia we have closed land loans as low as $25,000. Details on our Financing page.
Do you offer hunting leases or hunting club memberships?
Yes. We manage several hunting properties and can help you find a hunting club membership or lease for quail, deer, turkey, hogs and ducks. Call Don Butts at 229-349-1991 about current availability, or visit Hunting Leases.
Are you certified appraisers?
Don Butts is a Certified General Real Estate Appraiser and a Certified Industrial Machinery Appraiser (CIMA), a lifetime accredited member of the American Society of Farm Equipment Appraisers. We appraise land plus farm, construction and logging equipment and heavy-duty trucks within 200 miles of Albany — see Appraisals.
How do I list my land for sale with you?
Call (229) 446-0600 or 229-349-1991, email farmsales1@hotmail.com, or complete the form on our Mailing List page with your county, acreage, timber or crop type and water access. We will evaluate your property and recommend the best way to sell it.
Is owner financing available?
On selected listings, yes — our Atkinson County 500+/- acre tract, for example, offers owner financing at $1,950 per acre. Owner financing can also broaden the buyer pool when you sell. Ask us about it on your property.
What crops and timber grow in South Georgia?
The region's long growing season supports peanuts, corn, cotton, wheat, watermelons, produce and tobacco, plus horse farms and numerous cattle operations. Pine is the most produced timber, with various hardwood species also harvested in large quantities — one reason timberland investors own land here.
Can you manage my property after I buy it?
Yes. Our land management services include food plots, prescribed burning, fire breaks, mowing, lease administration, accounting, property tax review, roads, fences and property monitoring — especially useful for absentee landowners.
