Wisconsin landowners have earned the right to be sceptical.

We purchase and option Wisconsin land for data center development. This state has already watched farm ground get assembled for a project that did not arrive as promised. Anyone approaching you here should expect hard questions.

See if your land qualifies

No cost, no obligation, and no pressure. We answer either way.

See if your land qualifies

Tell us about your property. There is no cost and no obligation. If it does not fit, we will tell you plainly.

A rough number is fine. If you are not sure, write not sure.

Does the property have electric service now?
Is there anything like this nearby that you know of?Check any that apply. Guessing is fine.
Are you the one who decides whether to sell?
Where are you in your thinking?

We use this only to evaluate your property and to contact you. We do not sell your information.

Who you are dealing with

We are the buyer, not a middleman

Ask us what happens if it does not go ahead

That is the question Wisconsin taught everybody to ask, and any party unwilling to answer it plainly has told you something. An option that expires should return your ground to you unencumbered, and you should be able to read exactly how in the document rather than take somebody's word.

Smaller counties clear a much lower bar here

Wisconsin scales its exemption in three steps. A county of 50,000 people or fewer needs 50 million dollars of investment, against 150 million in a county over 100,000. The rural end of this state is a materially easier place for a project to work.

We are the buyer, and most answers are no

We sit across the table from you rather than beside you. Take anything we send to your own attorney. And most Wisconsin ground we look at will not suit this, in which case you will hear that from us rather than nothing at all.

How it works

Four steps, and we do most of the work

  1. You tell us about the land

    Tell us the county and roughly the acreage, and tell us what you have already been asked. A fair number of Wisconsin landowners have fielded an approach before, and knowing what was said to you shapes what is worth checking first.

  2. We check it against public records

    We look up who serves your power, what transmission is near, and what your county has already done with projects of this kind. It is nearly all public record and none of it costs you a thing.

  3. We call you if it looks workable

    You get the reasoning, not a verdict. If the answer is no we tell you which specific thing rules it out, because that is information you can use with the next party who writes to you.

  4. We make an offer, or we tell you why not

    Paperwork comes last and your attorney reads it before you do anything. Up to that point the only thing we have asked you for is a description of your place.

Selling land for a data center in Wisconsin

Start from a position of doubt, because Wisconsin has more reason for it than most places. Farm ground in Mount Pleasant was assembled for a manufacturing project that never materialised at the scale announced, and part of that land was later developed as data centers by a different company entirely. So the useful questions here are about substance rather than promises: who is actually buying, what have they already looked at, and what happens if the project does not proceed. On the ground itself we want your county, roughly the acreage, and what runs near you electrically. We check public records at no cost and answer either way.

Not sure if your land is worth asking about?

Ask anyway. Checking costs you nothing, and the properties that turn out to work are often ones the owner assumed were ordinary.
