Driftless Land Co. has bought land across the parish — pine timber, rural acreage, small tracts off parish roads — and we're based about forty-five minutes south in Mandeville. You get a researched offer built from real Washington Parish sales, the title work handled for you, and cash at closing. No fees, no commission, no pressure to decide quickly.

Bought in Washington Parish

Land we’ve bought here — the kind of parcels we mean.

Hwy 62, near Angie
57 acres of pine timber

One owner, one big tract. We bought the whole property directly in 2024 and took on the work of splitting it into smaller parcels ourselves — the seller didn't have to.

Bought as a single tract · 2024
Rural parish road
5 acres with a creek along one side

No electric on site and a rural road — the kind of parcel some buyers pass on. We made an offer anyway and closed quickly.

No electric, rural road · 2021
South of Franklinton
5 acres, level ground

Front acre and a half dry, back section wet. We told the owner exactly that, priced it honestly for what it was, and closed.

Part dry, part wet · 2022

What moves the price

What drives land value in Washington Parish.

What we look at on every parcel in the parish before we make an offer. Sources for any figures are listed below.

Smaller parcels vs. larger tracts
Small parcels usually bring more per acre than large tracts — timber, frontage, and access decide how much
What moves the price
Road frontage, standing timber vs. cut-over, flood zone, and clean title
Typical time to close
One to three weeks on most of our clean-title purchases; longer when a succession is open
Land types we see most
Pine timber, rural homesites, pasture, hunting tracts
Flood / wetland notes
We pull the FEMA panel on every parcel — the Pearl River and Bogue Chitto corridors are where flood zones actually bite
Demand right now
Steady for smaller parcels with road frontage

Selling here, specifically

What’s different about a Washington Parish sale.

Succession property

Plenty of parish land is still titled to a parent or grandparent. Louisiana succession — not "probate" — has to catch the title up before a sale; when we're the buyer, a Louisiana succession attorney runs it at no cost to you.

Timber before you sell

Standing timber can be worth selling separately, or it can be the reason a buyer wants the tract. We'll tell you which applies to yours — and whether a timber cruise is worth doing before you take any offer.

Access & utilities

A lot of parish tracts sit off gravel or parish roads with no electric on site. We've bought them anyway — utility reach affects the price, not whether we'll make an offer.

Back taxes & adjudicated land

Behind on parish taxes, or the parcel's been adjudicated? Usually still sellable — taxes typically clear from the proceeds at closing, so you don't have to come out of pocket first.

Track record

The same buyer, parish after parish.

I just purchased a piece of property from Mr. Harry. He was very professional during the negotiation process and made the closing so easy and quick. I witnessed honesty and integrity first hand!
