What landowners say
Landowners rate Land Boss 4.6 out of 5 on Google (27 reviews). These come from people across the country who actually closed with us.
Kind, informative, and easy to work with!
I recently sold land to them and it was such a smooth and simple process. I would 100% recommend.
They were fast, friendly, and easy to work with. It was as fast as it could have been.
Outstanding service buying my land in Georgia. Excellent company to deal with.
Closing with us is usually 3–5 times faster than selling with a realtor. Title work and your schedule still set the exact date.
Who actually buys the land
Dallas Waldon is the owner and CEO of Land Boss, which she founded in 2018. She personally speaks with every seller, underwrites the offer, secures funding, and handles communication through closing. You are not handed off to an overseas call center. Hundreds of vacant-land deals in all 50 states. East River extras and West River leftovers included if we can close them. Call (916) 262-7241 if you would rather talk first.
Listing vs selling to us
A cash offer is a trade: speed and certainty for a price that is often below a perfect retail sale. We would rather say that than hide it.
| List with a realtor | Sell to Land Boss | |
|---|---|---|
| Time | Often months of showings, and the buyer’s loan can still fall through | Usually 3–5 times faster than selling with a realtor. Title work and your schedule still set the date. |
| Fees | Agent commission, often in the 5–6% range, plus listing prep | No realtor commission on a sale straight to us |
| Condition | Cleanup, maybe a perc test, maybe a survey before anyone writes an offer | As-is. You do not have to clear it or fix it up for us. |
| Price | Can reach retail if a qualified buyer shows up and actually closes | Cash, and often less than a dream retail number — that is the trade |
| Who is on the other side | Whoever offers, if they close | Us. We buy with our own money. |
How South Dakota closings usually work
South Dakota land sales typically close through a title company. East River and West River are different country. We buy unused leftovers, not a working ranch unit.

Dallas Waldon, owner and CEO since 2018, underwrites the offer herself. Call (916) 262-7241. The other line, (916) 665-0535, is also ours.

Why South Dakota Owners Choose a Cash Land Buyer
• East-river leftovers and west-river grass aren't the same ground.
• Inherited a leftover after a parent died.
• Live out of state and still get a county bill.
• A leftover isn't a Black Hills trophy ranch.
• You'd rather have the money than another year of taxes.
What we look at: farm remnants, grazing leftovers, rural lots, inherited parcels.
We've looked at land in Minnehaha, Pennington, Lincoln, Brown, Brookings, Codington, and Meade. That's just to be specific.
