Funny you should mention that, next week we're meeting with the guy who owns the farm next to mine, he wants to sell out and I'm looking to buy. Our access road is deeded access across that farm so a prospective buyer can't lock us out but could potentially make it a hassle. The farm on the other side of ours sold and the new owner apparently has people arrested for trespassing when they go fishing on the river his land abuts. People have fished that spot for generations...So anyway I don't want a jerk like that buying the land I access my land from, figure the easiest way is to just buy it. The guy apparently wants $95k. 60 acres, comes with a falling down house and a big barn that is, I think, less than 10 years old. We're thinking to section off the house and maybe 3 acres and sell that off, keep the land. We've got, I think 72 acres in the abutting lot. The other nice thing is some of the new land is rented out for farming, maybe we can encourage that renter to take on some of our existing land also which would save me from having to mow the grass... -Curt
You obviously need to keep the big barn to store more cars and equipment. Patch up the old house and rent it out cheap to someone who will function as an unpaid caretaker to watch over things when you are not there.
