How it works

Buying land bank property in Franklin County

Land bank purchases are application-based, not offer-based: pick a property from the official list, read that land bank’s program rules (owner-occupant priority, investor policies, renovation requirements), and apply with proof of funds. Title is typically cleared before resale. The process runs weeks to a few months — paperwork, not bidding wars. Our step-by-step buying guide covers every stage.

How do I buy a land bank property in Franklin County?

Land bank purchases are application-based, not offer-based: pick a property from the list, show proof of funds (and usually a renovation plan for structures), and close directly with the land bank rather than through an agent. Many prioritize owner-occupants. The process runs weeks to a few months.

Why aren't these Franklin County listings on Zillow?

Land banks aren't brokers and don't list on the MLS, which is where Zillow and Redfin get their data. Each publishes inventory on its own website — LandBankSearch aggregates those official lists so you can search Franklin County in one place.
