Never sold land before, or tried to sell in Ellis 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 Ellis County: what to know before you sell
Ellis County runs along the Texas line in northwest Oklahoma, with the Canadian River on its south edge. It is cattle and wheat country with only 3,749 people in 2020, the fifth-fewest in the state. Large pastures, absentee heirs and grazing leases are the norm.
Arnett, the seat, had 495 residents. Fargo, Gage and Shattuck are the other towns, and Catesby and Harmon are small unincorporated places. The county is named for Albert H. Ellis, vice president of the 1906 Constitutional Convention.
Before statehood this was part of Day County. In 1907 Day County was abolished, and its remainder plus the southwest corner of Woodward County became Ellis County. Arnett beat Shattuck in a 1908 runoff for the seat. The 1858 Battle of Little Robe Creek, also called Antelope Hills, was fought inside today’s county.
The Santa Fe line of 1886-1887 started Fargo, Gage and Shattuck, and in 1907 Shattuck shipped more broomcorn than any other point in the nation.
On April 9, 1947, an F5 tornado that began near White Deer, Texas, tracked 221 miles northeast; it killed six people in Ellis County and ranks among the deadliest in U.S. history. Earlier, a military road linked Fort Supply with Fort Elliott in Texas, and the Dominion Cattle Company grazed this range before the land run.

What kind of land sells in Ellis County
Ellis County is Great Plains grass and wheat, drained by Wolf Creek to the North Canadian and by Little Robe, Commission and Hackberry creeks to the Canadian River. Ranching has led since the cattle trails. Buyers see big pastures, cropland, river breaks and hunting ground.
- Ranch pasture. Grass and sandhills, often a section or more, with a grazing tenant.
- Cropland. Wheat, plus the old cotton and broomcorn fields around Shattuck and Gage.
- Canadian River breaks. The Packsaddle Wildlife Management Area sits along the river; private breaks next to it draw hunters.
- Lake Lloyd Vincent area. The state built this 160-acre lake in 1961 inside the 4,800-acre Ellis County WMA in the southwest corner.
- Dairy and feeding ground. Dairies proved profitable here in the 1970s; some old sites still sell.
Minerals: we buy with or without mineral rights. If an oil or gas lease sits on the place, send it along. How minerals work in a land sale.
Lowest-tier prices: OSU’s 2021-2023 average for Ellis County sales of 40 acres or more was $1,055 per acre (32 sales), second lowest in Oklahoma. Compare counties · value a tract.

Own Ellis County grass but live somewhere else?
With so few people left in the county, much Ellis County land is owned by heirs in Woodward, Oklahoma City, Texas or beyond. You can sell without coming back. Sign by mail or with a mobile or online notary; the title company records the deed in Arnett and sends your money.
How it works: selling from another state. Cousins on the title? Selling with several heirs. Neighbor grazing it? Selling leased pasture.

Questions about selling Ellis County land
How fast can you close?
We aim to close in about 30 days and won’t go past 45 once the title is clear. That time is for the title company to research the title. Because we pay cash, there’s no appraisal or loan approval to wait on. Need more time? You can pick a later date.
Do you buy land around Arnett, Shattuck, Gage and Fargo?
Yes. We buy pasture, cropland, river breaks and lots across Ellis County, including Arnett, Shattuck, Gage, Fargo, Catesby and Harmon. Share a legal description or a nearby road and you get a written offer within 24 hours.
When are Ellis County property taxes due?
The Treasurer’s site says the first half or the full amount is due by the last day of December. Under state law the second half is due by March 31.
Is there an Ellis County website with assessor and clerk pages?
We could not find one. The Treasurer’s pages on oktaxrolls.com are the only official online records we confirmed. Call the courthouse in Arnett for the other offices.
Can I sell Ellis County pasture with a grazing lease?
Yes. A lease does not stop a sale. We read it, honor it and take over as landlord at closing.
Why is Ellis County land priced lower than central Oklahoma?
OSU’s averages show far-northwest grassland selling for less per acre than cropland near the cities. Water, access and soil set the price of each tract.
