Should I sit and wait or take the money and run? I’m trying to put the puzzle pieces together because I’m thinking (at least hoping) Marathon wants this land for future use and it could possibly be worth a lot more than the current offer.

so Marathon already has an easement for their pipeline?

So how much of the acreage is actually usable? I looked at the flood map of the area and there’s not much that isn’t in it.

I handle most of the land sales in my office, because frankly most realtors HATE dealing with land, mostly because they don’t understand it. There is probably different than here given how much residential construction I see built already that’s in a flood zone, but here it’s much harder to sell here because of increased costs to develop.

So I tell clients, if it’s in a flood zone I wouldn’t buy it, if someone else wants yours that is? SELL
