Buying land might sound complicated — but it doesn’t have to be. Especially if you're buying through a seller-financed company like Apex Land, the process can be faster, simpler, and way less intimidating than buying a home.

Here’s a clear, step-by-step guide so you know exactly what to expect from start to finish.
✅ Step 1: Choose Your Property
Browse available land listings and look for:
Size and price
Zoning and land use
Access and location
Utility options (off-grid or nearby)
💬 Have questions? We’re always available to explain zoning, camping limits, and off-grid basics.
📝 Step 2: Reserve the Property
Once you’ve chosen a parcel:
Submit a $250 document processing fee (non-refundable)
The parcel is taken off the market
You’ll receive a simple form to fill out your buyer information
This step reserves the property in your name and begins the paperwork process.
🖋️ Step 3: Sign the Purchase Agreement
We’ll send you a purchase agreement that outlines:
Purchase price
Down payment
Monthly payments (if seller-financed)
Terms of ownership and use
Everything is digital and can be signed online.
💳 Step 4: Make Your Down Payment
Make your initial down payment (varies per property), and you’ll receive:
A receipt for your payment
Your official purchase contract
Access to your owner portal (if offered)
🧾 All Apex Land purchases come with full documentation and transparency.
🏞️ Step 5: Make Monthly Payments (If Financing)
If you're doing seller financing, you’ll make monthly payments as agreed upon in your contract. No credit checks, no banks — just simple, affordable ownership.
🏦 Multiple payment options available — including ACH, credit/debit card, or money order.
🏡 Step 6: Get the Deed and Record Ownership
Once the full purchase price is paid:
We’ll prepare your Warranty Deed
We file it with the Modoc County Recorder’s Office
You get a recorded copy of the deed in your name
🎉 Congrats! You're officially a landowner.
