Nevada has some of the most buyer-resistant vacant land in the country. The state is roughly 87% federally owned — which means private land is scarce in absolute terms, but the retail buyer pool for remote desert parcels is thin. Parcels in Churchill, Nye, Mineral, and Esmeralda counties can sit for years on the open market with minimal interest.
Nevada levies a Real Property Transfer Tax (RPTT). The statewide base rate is $1.95 per $500 of value ($3.90 per $1,000) for most counties, with Churchill County at a lower rate of $1.30 per $500. Clark and Washoe counties add a school district surcharge on top of the base rate. The RPTT is typically negotiated between buyer and seller.
If you're holding desert acreage you bought as an investment, inherited land from a relative, or a remote parcel you've never visited, a direct cash sale is the practical path. We research the parcel, make a written offer, and close through a Nevada escrow company — typically in 14-30 days.

Real Property Transfer Tax (RPTT): Nevada's RPTT base rate is $1.95 per $500 of consideration ($3.90 per $1,000) in most counties. Churchill County has a reduced rate of $1.30 per $500. Clark and Washoe counties add a school district surcharge. The tax is typically negotiated between buyer and seller; custom often results in a split. We clarify our portion in the offer.
Tax-lien state: Nevada uses a tax-lien sale system. Delinquent property taxes result in a lien that can be sold to investors. After a redemption period (typically 2 years), the investor can seek a treasurer's deed. If your land has delinquent taxes, acting now is prudent.
Closing norm: Nevada is an escrow-close state. Title companies and licensed escrow companies handle closings. Attorneys are not required by state law to conduct real estate closings.
Where we buy in Nevada:
Nevada deeds are typically grant deeds or quitclaim deeds, recorded with the county recorder. Warranty deeds are used for cleaner title situations.
