Details
ZONING
Residential/Agricultural.
FLOODPLAIN
Property is located in a 1-percent-annual-chance-flood area as designated by FEMA. The FEMA Base Flood Elevation (BFE) zone for this lot is AE. This means flood insurance is required for any structures on the property. Structures also must be built with their lowest inhabited floor at or above the BFE. For this lot that is 18 inches from ground level (the elevation of the lot as shown on Google Earth is 840 feet and the BFE is 841.5 feet). For perspective, 18 inches is a common foundation height in home building. Most homes in older eras were built two-to-three feet off the ground. This was often because it was cheaper than excavating. Numerous other homes and businesses exist in the same floodplain, including Dollar General, constructed three years ago.
UTILITIES
Electricity, water, and sewer are available to hook up to at the property line.

The property is located within Freeman city limits. The city does not require anything to be built on the property within any period time. You would be free to use it as is indefinitely.

Purchase Process
If you are interested in purchasing the property, the first step is to put down a deposit by clicking the “buy now” button above. This deposit is non-refundable and indicates to us that you are serious about purchasing the property and moving forward with going under contract.
Upon receipt of your deposit, we will remove the listing from the market and let other potential buyers know the property is no longer available. We will send you a purchase agreement via Docusign, which will allow you to review and sign the form electronically.
We will send the completed purchase agreement to a closing attorney or title company (depending on which state the property is located in) to begin the closing process.
The closing attorney/title company handles everything from there, including a title search, payment, and recording of the deed in your name. Payment typically happens via wire transfer for convenience and speed. On the closing date, you will wire the remaining balance to the closing attorney/title company who will put it in escrow. The funds will be dispersed to us once the closing documents are executed.
The time between purchase and the closing date is typically 2-4 weeks.
Please let us know if you have any questions about this process.
