Before You Buy Land.

Free access checklist

Verify road access and easements before you buy rural land

Generate a parcel-specific access and easement checklist. Find records to check, seller documents to request, county questions, and seasonal access risks that maps alone cannot prove.

Direct answer

Use this as a first-pass verification checklist, not a final parcel decision.

This tool turns a rural land concern into records to check, documents to request, and county or local-authority questions to ask before you rely on a listing claim.

LandCheck can help pre-screen public-source risk signals and organize next steps; it cannot guarantee approval, legal access, septic suitability, utility service, or buildability.

What to verify

Start with the public source path, then confirm parcel-specific facts.

  • Identify the county, parcel, and relevant local office path.
  • Request seller documents instead of relying on listing phrases.
  • Check recorded documents, permits, maps, and source gaps where available.
  • Ask the county or qualified reviewer what still needs parcel-specific confirmation.

Step 1

Tell us about the parcel

Choose the state and county. If the county is in our pilot set, we'll add direct road, recorder, and parcel source links.

Optional. Paste the access claim from the listing, e.g. 'paved road access' or 'easement in place'.

Optional. E.g. private road, locked gate, low-water crossing.
