Sound familiar?
Whether you’ve tried to sell your Johnston County land before or never have, here is what changes when you sell to 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 Johnston County: what owners here run into
Johnston County is small, rural and old. It was the heart of the Chickasaw Nation, so some titles start with an allotment. The land runs from Arbuckle hills to farm plains and a Lake Texoma arm, and many owners now live in Texas.
Only 10,272 people lived in Johnston County at the 2020 Census, on 643 square miles of land. Tishomingo is the county seat and the largest town, with 3,101 people. Ravia, Milburn, Mill Creek, Wapanucka, Mannsville and Bromide are the others. The county is part of the Texoma region.
Tishomingo was the capital of the Chickasaw Nation, which built a brick capitol there in 1856. The county was created at statehood in 1907 and named for Douglas H. Johnston, a Chickasaw governor. Murray State College began in Tishomingo in 1908 as a school of agriculture.
Because this was Chickasaw land, a title can trace back to an allotment. Restricted land owned by a lineal descendant of an original Five Tribes enrollee needs a district court’s approval to sell, and since 2018 that applies whatever the owner’s degree of Indian blood. Most land here is not restricted, and the title company checks before you sign anything.
Johnston County property tax search: how to look up your land
The Johnston County Treasurer’s online tax roll shows every bill and any balance due, searchable by name, address, parcel or township and range. The Assessor’s records on actDataScout show the parcel and its value. Land records are searchable through the County Clerk.
- Find the bill. Go to the Johnston County Treasurer and open “View or Pay Tax Info.” You can print a receipt by clicking your name on the tax item. Payments can take 5 to 7 days to show online.
- Look up the parcel. The Assessor links its property search on actDataScout for ownership, acreage, legal description and value.
- Search the land records. The County Clerk’s land records search covers deeds, mortgages, liens, easements and plats.
Johnston County tax dates, straight from the Treasurer
- Statements go out in November or early December. Not getting one does not excuse the tax, so call if yours has not arrived by mid-December.
- Due dates: pay in full, or pay half by December 31 and the second half by March 31. Bills of $25 or less must be paid in full.
- Penalty runs 1.5% a month on anything late, starting after December 31 for the first half and in April for the second.
The June resale. When the county has held a tax lien for three full years, the Treasurer must sell the land at the resale on the second Monday of June, between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. Bidding starts at all the back taxes, penalties, fees and costs, and the buyer gets a deed. If no one bids, the land is deeded to the county. The Treasurer posts the list online; the June 2026 list was still the one posted on November 4, 2026. The next resale falls on June 14, 2027. Selling before then means the title company pays the back taxes from your sale. How that works.

The Treasurer and Assessor work out of 403 W. Main in Tishomingo, and the County Clerk is down the street at 321 W. Main. Bills and resale lists come from the Treasurer, values and parcel maps from the Assessor, and recorded deeds from the Clerk.

Recording and stamp fees in Johnston County
The county’s fee page lists $8 for the first page of a deed and $2 per extra page, a $10 records preservation fee on every document, and documentary stamps of $0.75 for each $500 of the price. The same page has a small stamp calculator. Johnston County fees. On a sale to us, all of those are ours to pay, along with title and notary.

Johnston County land market notes
The north end of Johnston County climbs into the Arbuckle Mountains, with rock outcrops and rolling hills. The south end is Coastal Plains farm ground. In between run the Washita and Blue rivers and Pennington Creek, with an arm of Lake Texoma reaching the south.
- Arbuckle hill country. Rocky outcrops, rolling pasture and hunting ground in the north end. Bromide, up in this part of the county, grew in the early 1900s as a health resort built around its natural springs.
- Farm and hay ground in the south. The Coastal Plains half of the county is flatter and better suited to crops and hay.
- Washita, Blue River and Pennington Creek. Bottom ground along all three, which drain to the Red River. Low ground can sit in a flood zone; we read the FEMA map before we make an offer.
- The Texoma arm. An arm of Lake Texoma pushes into the south of the county, and part of the Tishomingo National Wildlife Refuge is here. Corps of Engineers shoreline and refuge land are federal, so a nearby lot may be close to the water without touching it.
A rough value marker: OSU’s 2021–2023 table shows Johnston County tracts of 40 acres or more selling for an average of $3,187 an acre, but from only 24 sales. Treat it as a ballpark. Land values for all 77 counties.

Own Johnston County land but live in Texas?
Johnston County sits a short drive from the Texas line, and owning land here from Texas or farther away is common. You can sell without driving up. A licensed title company runs the closing, a mobile notary comes to you, and the proceeds arrive by wire or check.
A lake-area lot bought for weekends, or a family pasture nobody has walked in years, still brings a tax statement every November. If that bill has become the only reason you think about the land, a cash sale ends it.

Land for sale in Johnston County: what is an acre worth?
About $3,187 an acre: the Johnston County average for 2021–2023 sales of 40+ acre tracts (24 sales), per OSU Extension. So 10 acres ≈ $31,900, 40 acres ≈ $127,500.

Johnston County land questions
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 near Tishomingo, Ravia, Milburn or Mill Creek?
Yes. We buy pasture, farm ground, hunting land and lots across Johnston County, including Tishomingo, Ravia, Milburn, Mill Creek, Wapanucka, Mannsville, Bromide, Connerville and Fillmore.
When are Johnston County property taxes due?
The Treasurer mails statements in November or early December. Pay in full by December 31, or pay half by December 31 and the other half by March 31. Late amounts pick up a 1.5% penalty each month.
What happens if Johnston County land goes three years without taxes being paid?
The Treasurer must offer it at the tax resale on the second Monday in June. If it does not sell, it is deeded to the county. Selling before the resale lets the title company pay the back taxes out of your proceeds.
My Johnston County land came from a Chickasaw allotment. Can I sell it?
Usually, yes. Most land here is not restricted. If it is still restricted, a district court must approve the sale, whatever the owner’s degree of Indian blood (the rule since 2018). The title company checks, and we tell you before you sign.
Do you buy land near Lake Texoma or the wildlife refuge?
Yes. We buy private lots and acreage near the Texoma arm and the Tishomingo National Wildlife Refuge. The refuge and Corps shoreline are federal, so we confirm exactly where your boundary sits.
