About Wilson County
Wilson County was created by the Tennessee General Assembly on October 26, 1799, from part of Sumner County, named for Revolutionary War veteran Major David Wilson. The county seat, Lebanon, was laid out in 1802 and named for the biblical land of cedars after the region's dense stands of red cedar.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is farmland value determined in Wilson County?
We evaluate farmland based on total acreage, soil productivity class, crop history, irrigation access, USDA program enrollment status, drainage, comparable agricultural land sales in Wilson County, and any existing improvements like barns or grain storage.
Can I sell farmland enrolled in USDA programs?
Yes. Land enrolled in CRP, EQIP, CSP, or other USDA programs can be sold. The buyer may assume the contract or the enrollment may end at closing, depending on program terms. We handle the coordination with your local FSA office.
What if there is an active farm tenant lease on the land?
We can buy farmland with existing tenant leases in Wilson County. The lease terms are reviewed during due diligence, and we work with both you and the tenant to ensure a smooth transition.
Do I need to sell farm equipment with the land?
No. We buy the land itself. Equipment, livestock, and personal property are separate transactions. You keep everything that is not attached to the real estate.
Is farmland taxed differently than other land in Tennessee?
In most cases, yes. Tennessee offers agricultural use assessments that reduce property taxes on qualifying farmland. The tax status and any rollback penalties are factored into our offer so there are no surprises.
Can I sell just part of my farmland in Wilson County?
Yes. If you want to sell a portion of your acreage and keep the rest, we can work with your surveyor to subdivide the parcel. We buy tracts of all sizes.
What Our Sellers Say
“My mom passed and I inherited her place in Antioch. It needed a ton of work and I live out of state so I couldn't deal with contractors or showings. They came out, looked at it, and had a number for me the next day. We closed in 9 days. The whole thing was so much easier than I expected.”
Inherited Property
“Honestly I was skeptical at first because I'd heard horror stories about cash buyers lowballing people. But they explained exactly how they came up with the number and it was fair. We were behind on payments and they got everything done in a week. No last-minute changes, no surprises at closing.”
Avoided Foreclosure
“My husband got transferred to Dallas and we had about three weeks to figure out the house. A friend told us about EasyOffer. They gave us a cash offer that same afternoon and worked around our move date. We closed 11 days later without having to do a single showing or open house.”
