| Buying Land Posted by jimbeam Assuming it is currently being used for agricultural use, and would continue to be used for it, how smart $ wise is a move like this? I realize it would be very long term unless you got lucky with minerals. on 11/13 at 1:21 amReply • Back to Top |
| It depends on how much land, cost and taxes. Also if you can keep it in lease to a farmer that will take care of it, not rape it. Going rate around me is only $50 per ac per year. Also, location plays a big part. In mine, I'm just outside the city limits like one street. There is no way the city can grow without coming my way. For years I been fighting them due to them trying to suck me in. That would send my taxes up big time, but also I could develop the land. My land in my area is now going for 10K+ and ac were just 10 years ago it was only going for 2.5K. Land ownership is not all that great. If it wasn't given to me, I would of never bought it other then what is known as my home place. That is a bit over 60+ac which 75% is woods. Reply • Back to Top |
| May want to wait a while, with all the prices being as high as they are you are going to pay through the nose. I plan on working like a dog after grad and save up. Reply • Back to Top |
