In your experience what sort of questions should I be asking before I pursue this?




Basic things like underground ROW/utilities/pipelines that may limit development, surface rights, title search, etc. After that I wouldn't be overly worried about it. Likely someone who bought it years ago expecting to develop and never did. So now they're just trying to get off of it. $15k reduction in 3 months isn't that outlandish in this market, properties are getting stale and sellers are getting worried it may get worse.

Even at $67k I would go in much lower, knowing that they are showing desperate/flexible pricing.

Look up the owner OP and what they paid. As said if it’s a developer or contractor they simply may be looking to reduce their liability and portfolio to concentrate their assets elsewhere.

You are most likely over thinking it imo. I don’t think it’s as much a sellers market universally as some like to think.
