For Private Landowners

Landowner Starter Report: Know Your Land Before You Negotiate.

What you get

If a data center developer or broker has approached you about your land, this report tells you what your property is actually worth to them — before you negotiate. We check how close you are to power infrastructure, water availability, and other factors developers use to decide if a site is viable.

This is a site screening report, not a property appraisal or a guarantee of developer interest.

“As a private landowner in the timber business, we found this report to be an extremely valuable tool in evaluating the potential of our property as a data center site. It provides a professional preliminary overview of the site's strengths and potential challenges, giving us valuable insight to guide our next steps and make more informed decisions about the future direction of our property.”

— Taylor Cardwell, CPCU, Forester, Disiere Forestry

How it works

Give us your property address. Screening takes minutes and covers grid proximity, water availability, zoning, and nearby community factors — the same categories developers use to evaluate your land. Your professional PDF is delivered within 1 business day.

Why this matters before you sign anything

Developers already know this information about your land. This report puts you on equal footing — so you understand your property's real value before you agree to a price or sign an option.

What You Receive

What's in the report

  • A score for how attractive your land is for data center development
  • Specific risks or advantages tied to your property (grid distance, water access, zoning status)
  • Plain-language explanation of what each factor means for your negotiating position

Community Engagement Playbook

Prepare questions and next steps for talks with developers, advisers and local officials.

Independent perspective

No broker, no developer, and no financial interest in whether your land changes hands.

How to use your landowner report

Start with the land you own and the choice you face. You may be weighing an offer, an option or the cost of a further study. The report gives you site facts to bring to that discussion. It does not set a sale price or tell you which deal to accept.

Before you talk to a developer

  • Check that the site location is right. A nearby point may describe different land.
  • Read each finding with its source date. A known fact may need a fresh check.
  • Keep gaps marked as unknown. No data is not proof that the site is clear.
  • Write down which questions need the utility, a lawyer, an engineer or a local official.
  • Bring the same facts to your broker, forester and family so you can discuss the next step.

What still needs a separate check?

A nearby power line does not prove spare capacity. Water context does not confirm water rights. Local records do not prove that people support the plan or that a permit will be granted.

Use the scorecard and playbook to plan what to ask next. They do not replace a site visit, legal advice, an engineering study or a utility commitment. Agree on the scope and handling of private deal files before you share them.
