To estimate what your Union County, Indiana land might sell for, compare it with similar land that actually sold. Check location, acreage, access and what each sale included, then compare offers by the money you would keep. A tax assessment or old asking price is not an appraisal or a guaranteed offer.
Identify the land
Find the parcel number and acreage on a tax bill or deed. If you own several parcels, list the ones you intend to sell. The Union County Treasurer links to the county GIS for parcel and tax information. Compare the record with your papers and ask the assessor about a mismatch. The Surveyor notes that GIS outlines are not survey-quality information. A map is not proof of ownership.
Find comparable sales
Indiana's sales disclosure search offers county, date, price and property-class filters and requires a CAPTCHA. Note the parcel, sale date, price and acres for each possible match. Check whether buildings, improvements or multiple parcels were included before comparing price per acre. Look for similar road access, open ground, woods and leases.
A family transfer or foreclosure can tell a different story from an ordinary vacant-land sale. Ask a local agent or appraiser for help if details are hard to verify; a search result is a lead, not automatically a comparable sale. The old listing snapshot on this page was not checked against unique properties and completed sales, so its asking prices and counts could not establish a dependable value for your land.
Find a deed or access agreement
The Union County Recorder says staff will not search public records or give legal opinions. If you know the recording information, ask about a copy; otherwise the office describes public computers and remote access. A title professional or attorney can help with a complete search and interpretation. If a road crosses someone else's land, share any written easement or road agreement. If you are handling inherited land, start with the papers you have and ask who needs to sign.
Compare offers by what you keep
Ask each buyer for the price, seller costs, conditions and expected closing date in writing. For example, a $100,000 offer with $5,000 in seller costs leaves $95,000 before any loan or tax balance. This is an illustration, not a Union County price estimate. Compare a direct offer with listing through an agent or finding a buyer yourself, including the work and costs of each choice.
If you would like Reelvest to review the land, share what you know. You can start without every document and decide later whether an offer suits you.
Common questions
Is my assessed value the selling price?
Not necessarily. It is a tax record rather than an offer. Compare verified sales of similar land or ask an appraiser for an opinion.
Can the recorder search my title for me?
The office says its staff does not search public records or give legal opinions. Ask a title professional or attorney for a complete search.
What if the land has no street address?
Start with a parcel number, map pin or nearby road, and check that the record describes the land you intend to sell.
