Reviewed June 2026 with 2025 USDA data
Ohio farm real estate averaged $1 an acre in 2025 (USDA NASS), and the state carries an effective property tax rate of about 1.59 percent (Tax Foundation). Idle Ohio land quietly costs money every year it sits, which is one reason many owners choose a direct cash sale over holding or listing.

Ohio is two kinds of land. The west and center are flat, fertile glaciated plains, some of the best cropland in the Midwest. The southeast is Appalachian foothills, hilly and wooded, with cheaper rural and recreational tracts.
We buy that farmland, the southeast woods and recreational land, and the rural parcels owners no longer use, including hill ground that is slow to sell the usual way.
Different ends of the state, different land. We buy across all of it.
Mercer, Darke, Putnam, Van Wert and Paulding, flat, fertile cropland across the plains.
Athens, Meigs, Vinton, Morgan, Noble, Monroe and Guernsey, hilly, wooded and recreational tracts.
Ashtabula, Columbiana and the rural counties of the north and east.
Ohio has its own farmland tax program worth knowing when you sell.
Farmland in Current Agricultural Use Value carries a lower tax, and taking it out can trigger recoupment. We factor your status into the offer.
Flat western cropland and hilly southeast woods price differently. We research yours on its own terms.
Wooded hill tracts in the southeast often sit unused. A cash sale turns one into money now.
Whatever the land owes is settled through the closing, not out of your pocket.
An average is only a starting point. Your number comes from the parcel, not the state.

Ohio farm real estate averaged about $1 an acre in 2025, according to USDA NASS. Raw and recreational parcels usually trade below that average and cropland above it, so your acreage and land type set your real number.
Ohio has an effective property tax rate of about 1.59 percent (Tax Foundation), so land valued at $100,000 runs roughly $1,590 a year in property tax. Vacant land earns nothing while you hold it, which is one reason many owners choose to sell.
