Never sold land before, or tried to sell in Cotton County and got nowhere? Here is what is different with us.
Never sold land before
“I inherited land I’ve never even seen. I just want it handled.”
One call, and we handle the rest. No need to visit, list it, clean it up or know anything about land sales. We research the parcel, order the title work and do the paperwork. Written offer in 24 hours, and you can sign from home, even from out of state.
Tired of waiting
“My land’s been listed for a year and nobody’s serious.”
We buy on your timeline. Land can sit for a year or two, and with higher interest rates fewer buyers can get a loan for it. We don’t need one. Written offer in 24 hours, and we aim to close in about 30 days, never past 45 once the title is clear.
Burned by the usual process
“The buyer backed out at the last minute, and my realtor stopped calling back.”
We’re not a traditional buyer. No appraisal, no loan officer. We pay cash from private investor capital, so there’s no loan to fall through. No back-and-forth either: one written offer with every cost listed.
Just want it easy
“I just want it done without paying fees or chasing paperwork.”
We pay all closing costs and do the paperwork. Title, closing fee, notary, recording and deed stamps are on us. Any mortgage, liens or back taxes are paid off by the title company from the sale at closing, so you don’t need cash up front.
Free, and you can say no.

Selling land in Cotton County: what to know before you sell
Cotton County was the last county Oklahoma created, split from Comanche County in 1912 and named for its main crop. It sits on the Red River in the Lawton metro area. Expect farm and pasture tracts, old oil leases, heirs spread out and lottery-era titles.
The 2020 Census counted 5,527 people on 633 square miles of land. Walters, the seat, had 2,412; it was organized in 1901 as McKnight. Devol, Randlett and Temple are the towns, and Ahpeatone, Cookietown, Hooper, Hulen and Taylor are smaller places.
The east was opened in the 1901 Kiowa-Comanche-Apache lottery. The rest, the Big Pasture, was sold by sealed bid in 1906. A 1911 try at a “Swanson County” failed before Cotton County was approved in 1912, with Randlett as the temporary seat until Walters won an election that November.
A Kiowa, Comanche or Apache allotment that is still held in trust is governed by separate federal rules. Mention any allotment in your chain of title; the title company confirms its status.
In 1920 the county had 16,679 people, about three times today’s count. Temple’s B and O Cash Store once shipped goods across the country until Sears bought it in 1929. By 1997 the county ran 69,988 cattle and ranked eleventh in Oklahoma for poultry sold.

Recording a Walters deed: fees we could and could not confirm
We found no official list of Cotton County recording fees online. The state’s stamp tax is fixed by law at 75 cents per $500, or part of $500. Our closing cost calculator shows a typical seller’s bill on any price. We pay all closing costs (title, closing fee, notary, recording and deed stamps), and there is no commission. Only a mortgage, liens or back taxes owed on the land come out of the sale proceeds, paid off by the title company at closing.

How fast can you close?

Yes. We buy farm ground, pasture, river bottom and lots across Cotton County, including Walters, Temple, Randlett, Devol, Cookietown, Ahpeatone, Hooper, Hulen and Taylor. Send the tax ID or the closest road, and a written number reaches you within a day.
Where do I look up Cotton County property taxes?
On the Cotton County Treasurer’s site at oktaxrolls.com. Choose View or Pay Tax Info, search by owner, parcel ID or tax ID, and tick Show Unpaid Taxes Only.
Why does Cotton County have so little online?
The Treasurer’s site is the only official county page we could confirm, and it lists only the address, phone and hours. Call 580-875-3264 for anything else.
Is Cotton County land from the Big Pasture different to sell?
No. The Big Pasture was sold by sealed bid in 1906 and is ordinary fee land today. Any allotment still in trust is governed by its own federal rules, which the title company screens for.
Can I sell Cotton County land with an old oil lease?
Yes. A recorded lease stays with whoever owns the minerals. We buy the surface alone, or with any minerals you still hold.
