Plotline has closed 184 raw-land, entitled and development-site transactions across four corridors since 2017. We pull the perc, walk the contour and name the planning board chair.
A 118-acre west-slope parcel with town approval for a 4-lot subdivision. Each lot 18–34 acres, all percolation-tested, three with existing road access.
47.2 acres of south-aspect riparian land in the Methow Valley with 840 ft of frontage on the Twisp River, current zoning RR-5.
Three things we always do, and three things most land brokers do not.
Before the sign goes up, we commission a percolation test, a witnessed water-table observation, and a current ALTA survey. Buyers see all three the day they ask. We do not list parcels we have not walked.
We commission a drone-LiDAR scan and overlay it on the current zoning map. The brochure includes three candidate build-site envelopes, each verified against setback and slope rules.
Our brief lists the planning-board chair, the typical hearing wait, the historical approval rate, the projected costs in current dollars. Buyers walk into negotiations with both eyes open.
Raw land sells slowest of any asset class. Most listings sit because the homework was not done. Here is the homework.
Rafael walked the parcel with a perc test crew and a copy of the zoning code. We had a build-ready report on day nine. The buyer offered on day eleven.
"We took 47 listings last year, walked 184 parcels, and turned down 137. Land is the most lied-about asset class in real estate. That is because it is the easiest to lie about."
Commission and inclusions, plainly. The perc, well-witness and survey are always included on Boutique tier and above.
For raw and undeveloped parcels under $1M, ready to list.
Our most-requested package for entitled or near-entitled sites.
Trophy parcels above $3M, conservation-grade, or large-acreage subdivision-ready.
