Land Investor Using a DBA to Purchase

[Michael Hopkins]

Hello,

I am a land investor who has been buying and selling land on the side. I recently have started to take the business much more serious and have started to put systems and processes in place. I have an LLC that purchases and sells the property that is based out of Florida. We have a website where we sell the properties along with other marketing channels. I just recently started a DBA through that LLC for the purchasing side of things, as sellers always ask what company are you with. We will now have a separate name, logo, website, and marketing for the acquisitions side of things.

So with all that being said, my question is can I sign a purchase agreement with my DBA? If I am telling land owners my info and name of the company is my DBA, for example "We Buy Land," but then when I sign the purchase agreement I have a different name as the buyer, for example "Land For Sale," it may seem a little sketchy. I would think I could sign the contract using my DBA but in the closing paperwork it will show as "Land For Sale DBA We Buy Land." Thanks for the help!
