You Don’t Always Have to Sell All Your Land to Solve the Problem
When most landowners think about selling, they assume it’s all or nothing.
Sell everything—or don’t sell at all.
After working with many property owners over the years, we’ve learned something important: that assumption costs people options. In many cases, it also costs them peace of mind.
At Spirit Land Co., we’ve purchased portions of land from landowners across different situations—and helped them solve real problems without forcing them to give up their house or all of their property.
The Problem Most Landowners Run Into
Land ownership sounds simple until it isn’t.
We regularly talk with people who own land and are dealing with one (or more) of the following:
- Rising property taxes
- Inherited land they don’t fully use
- Maintenance issues on acreage they don’t need
- Financial pressure or unexpected expenses
- Property that’s become more of a burden than a benefit
In many of these situations, the owner doesn’t actually want to sell everything. Often, there’s a house on the property they still live in. Or land that has sentimental value. Or acreage they may want to keep long-term.
The problem isn’t ownership—it’s excess.
Why Selling Part of the Land Makes Sense
This is where partial land sales come into play.
We’ve worked with landowners who sold:
- A back portion of acreage they never used
- A side parcel that could be divided cleanly
- Extra land attached to a property with a house they wanted to keep
In each case, the result was the same:
They solved their problem without giving up everything.
Selling part of the land allowed them to:
- Access cash
- Reduce holding costs
- Simplify their situation
- Keep living in their house
- Retain ownership of land that still mattered to them
It’s a practical solution that most buyers never bring up—because it requires more work, more coordination, and a willingness to think beyond the standard playbook.
Why Most Buyers Don’t Offer This Option
The reality is simple: buying part of a property takes effort.
It may involve surveys. It requires clear communication. It demands experience and patience.
Most buyers want fast, easy, one-size-fits-all deals.
We’ve chosen a different approach.
At Spirit Land Co., we look at the entire situation, not just the easiest transaction. If selling part of your land makes more sense than selling all of it, we’re willing to have that conversation.
How We Make Partial Land Sales Simple
When we purchase a portion of land, we handle the heavy lifting:
- We pay for the survey
- We cover all closing costs
- We buy directly—no agents, no commissions
- We close through a professional title company
Our goal is to remove friction, not create it.
Just as importantly, we don’t pressure landowners into decisions that don’t make sense for them. Sometimes the right answer is to sell everything. Sometimes it’s to sell part. Sometimes it’s to do nothing at all.
We’re comfortable with all three outcomes.
What About Selling All the Land or the House Too?
That’s always an option.
If you want to sell all of your land, we can do that.
If there’s a house on the property, we can buy that as well.
We understand that every seller’s situation is different. Some people want a clean exit. Others want flexibility. The key difference is that we offer both, while most buyers only offer one path.
Final Thoughts
Owning land shouldn’t feel like a trap.
If you’re facing a situation where selling everything feels like too much—but doing nothing isn’t working either—there may be a middle ground.
Selling part of your land could be the solution that gets you unstuck without forcing you to give up your house or all of your property.
If you’d like to talk through your options, we’re happy to do that. No pressure. Just a straightforward conversation about what makes sense.
