About Sevier County

Sevier County is the tourism corridor — Sevierville, Pigeon Forge, and Gatlinburg — plus a large amount of steep mountain acreage carved into cabin lots.

Population: about 100,000.

Land in Sevier County

Thousands of Sevier County mountain lots were sold to out-of-state buyers as cabin sites. A large share have no utilities, no road maintenance agreement, and slopes too steep to build on affordably. Those owners have been paying taxes for decades on parcels they have never visited.

Houses in Sevier County

Flood-damaged properties along the Little Pigeon River and fire-affected parcels from the 2016 wildfires are still working through the market. We buy both.

We also buy on monthly payments

Some land sellers don't want one large check. An installment sale — seller financing — lets you receive payments over months or years instead, with interest, so the gain may be recognized as payments arrive rather than all at once.

  • Predictable monthly income

    A fixed deposit on the same day every month for the length of the term you choose.

  • Spread the tax year

    Taking the full price in one year can push the entire gain into that year. Payments may let gain be recognized as they arrive.

  • No more bills

    No property tax, no mowing, no maintenance. We take those over the day we close.

  • Secured by the property

    The note is secured by a recorded deed of trust against the land itself.
