Financing
What is the minimum down payment amount to purchase and are there closing costs?
A minimum of $999 down payment is required for purchase. Closing costs are currently a nominal $249.00 for us to prepare all of the legal documents required for the contract for deed.
If I finance the property, to whom do I make my payments and how will I know I have received proper credit for my payments?
We do not do credit checks and you are instantly qualified to purchase. We have our own in-house financing available. Your payments will be made to Classic Country Land, LLC. You can choose to make your monthly payments online on our Make A Payment (https://www.classiccountryland.com/payment/card/) portal or sign up for Autopay.
May I use the land while I'm paying for it and when do I receive a deed to my property?
Yes, beginning the very day you sign the purchase contract, the land is yours to use and enjoy. You will receive your Warranty Deed once you pay off your property.
Is there a penalty for paying off my land early?
There is absolutely no prepayment penalty. Your monthly payment is applied to your account balance using simple interest on the unpaid balance. All extra monthly payments will be applied directly to the principal. All extra payments will directly lower your balance, reducing the overall interest you pay on your purchase.
Does a buyer have to build a house within a certain time frame?
A buyer is never obligated to a timeframe to build on their property.
Can I resell my property in the future and make a profit?
While there is no guarantee of profit from any land sale, historically land prices have increased in value. We believe there are many reasons for this upward trend, including inflation, population growth, a decreasing land supply, the public’s desire for a more natural environment, the trend toward movement away from urban areas, and the increasing popularity of outdoor recreational activities.
Can I make an offer and what kinds of discounts are available?
Offers are discouraged as the properties are priced for immediate sale under our “No Haggle” pricing policy. Discounts are based on the finance plan that you choose.
Why are some properties more expensive than others?
The properties have been priced according to our “A B C” analysis and consideration of the proximity of the parcels to existing electricity. “A B C” stands for Access, Beauty, and Character. In other words, how good, quick, or easy is the access to the property from the main highway or county road. The beauty of the property mainly pertains to the vegetation and scenery. The character of the property refers mainly to its topography, for example: Is the parcel flat, rolling, steep, etc.
How does the contract-for-deed process work?
Once you and CCL agree on a property and payment plan, we send you a contract for deed to sign. After both parties sign, the land is yours to use while you make payments directly to us — no bank, no middleman. We hold the deed until the contract is paid in full, then convey it to you, completing your ownership.

Zoning & Taxes
What zoning applies to the property, and what are the property taxes for the parcel?
The zoning allows Residential/Recreational. Property taxes on rural, undeveloped land are generally very inexpensive; however, the amount can vary based on location and the value of surrounding properties. Please ask your sales associate if you need a more accurate estimation of a given tract.
Land Use & Rights
Are mineral rights included?
By default, Classic Country Land retains the mineral rights where we hold them, so they don't automatically transfer with the land. But here's the good news: on many of our properties we do hold the mineral rights — and we're happy to sell them with your tract. If owning the minerals under your land matters to you, ask us: we'll tell you exactly what's available for this property and what it would add.
Is there an hoa or poa?
Not every property in our inventory carries the same restrictions. Many of our tracts have no HOA or POA at all, while some developments do include a property owners' association with its own dues and covenants. The recorded restrictions for your specific property control here — check the Restrictions document on this page, or give us a call and we'll walk you through exactly what applies to the parcel you're looking at.
Can I camp or park an rv on my land?
Yes. Every development Classic Country Land developed allows RVs, campers and tiny homes, so you can camp on your land now and build later, or not build at all. There's no deadline to build. Many of our tracts don't have electricity on site, so check the utilities answer above; plenty of owners use solar or a generator. Counties set their own rules on things like septic and full-time occupancy, so a quick call to the county is worth it before you move in full-time.
Are mobile or manufactured homes allowed?
Yes. Mobile and manufactured homes are allowed on the developments Classic Country Land developed. Counties set their own rules for placing a home, such as permits, septic and foundation requirements, so check with the county before you move one in. The Restrictions document on this page lists the details for your specific property.
Is hunting allowed?
Many of our rural tracts are well suited to hunting, and plenty of owners use their land that way. Some developments' recorded restrictions do limit it, though, so this varies property to property. Check the Restrictions document on this page for your specific tract, or call us and we'll tell you exactly what's allowed.
