Own Ohio ground away from the Columbus corridor?

We purchase and option Ohio property for data center development. The transmission being built into the southern and eastern counties is changing which ground is worth looking at, and it is not the ground everybody assumes.

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

The map is being redrawn away from Columbus

For most of this industry's time in Ohio the answer was Licking County and the ring around Columbus. New transmission investment is now going into the southern and eastern counties on a scale those areas have not seen in generations, and ground that was too far from capacity is no longer automatically out.

We are the buyer and we will not pretend otherwise

Our interests are not your interests, and saying so at the start is cheaper for everyone than you working it out later. Take anything we put in front of you to your own attorney before you agree to it.

A plain no is part of the service

Most Ohio property we look at does not suit this, usually for reasons that have nothing to do with the quality of the farm. When that is the case we tell you so and stop, instead of leaving you waiting on something that was never going to happen.

How it works

Four steps, and we do most of the work

  1. You tell us about the land

    Send us the county, roughly the acreage, and whatever you have noticed around the place. If you are unsure of something, say so plainly. A gap you flag is worth more than a guess we act on.

  2. We check it against public records

    We look up which cooperative or utility serves you, what transmission is nearby, and what is being built toward your area. Most of that is public record and none of it costs you anything.

  3. We call you if it looks workable

    If it looks workable we tell you what we found and what we would want to do next. If it does not, we say so and explain why, rather than simply not getting back to you.

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

    Only after that does anything become a document, and only once your attorney has read it. Nothing before that point asks you for money, a signature, or exclusivity.

Selling land for a data center in Ohio

Two things settle most of it in Ohio. Who serves your power, which for rural ground is often one of the twenty four member cooperatives rather than AEP Ohio or AES Ohio, and what transmission is near you or being built toward you. That second part has changed recently: substantial new high voltage capacity is going into southern and Appalachian Ohio, and land there reads differently now than it did five years ago. Send us the county, a rough acreage, and anything you have noticed nearby. We check it against public records at no cost and give you a straight 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.
