Introduction
Selling land in Bastrop isn’t like selling a house. Whether you inherited property, bought years ago, or just don’t need the acreage anymore—here’s what you need to know before listing raw land in Bastrop County.
1. Know Your Land’s Zoning & Use Restrictions
Check with Bastrop County:
- Residential, commercial, or agricultural?
- Floodplain or building setbacks?
- Access to utilities?
2. Get a Recent Survey
Buyers (and lenders) often require it. If it’s more than 5–10 years old, it’s worth updating.
3. Price It Right
Land comps are trickier than home comps. Consider:
- Acreage
- Location + road access
- Availability of utilities
- Topography

4. Market to the Right Buyers
Use high-quality drone images, parcel maps, and land-specific MLS platforms. Target:
- Builders
- Investors
- Custom home buyers
- Agricultural users
5. Understand the Tax Implications
Selling land = capital gains in many cases. Talk to a CPA if you’ve owned it a long time.
