The report

What is a land due diligence report?

+

A research document that verifies the critical facts about a vacant parcel before you buy. Flood zone status, zoning, road access, covenants, mineral rights, water access, deed history and comparable sales. The same checks a home inspection does for houses, but for raw land.

How is this different from a title search?

+

A title search confirms who legally owns the property and identifies recorded liens. That is it. A Landisle report goes further: flood zones, zoning, road access, covenants, mineral rights, water access, soil, comparable sales and a plain English recommendation.

Do you visit the parcel?

+

Research is done from public records, county sources and mapping data. Where a physical question decides the purchase, the report names exactly who should walk it and roughly what that costs.

Working together

How long does a report take?

+

Essentials runs 3 to 5 business days, Standard 4 to 6, Premium 5 to 7 and Dream Compatibility 7 to 10. Rush timing can usually be arranged by email.

Where do you work?

+

Nationwide, with the deepest record familiarity in Texas and the Mid-Atlantic. If a county's records are unusually closed, we say so before taking payment.

What is the guarantee?

+

If the report does not surface at least one critical finding or piece of new information, you get a full refund.

Are you a broker or attorney?

+

Neither. No license, no commission, no side of the deal. Reports are research from public records, not a title opinion, survey or legal advice.
