Yeah that’s kinda where I’m at now, got way too much time and headache into this. I’d say it’s a fair deal, definitely not outstanding for what it is.

No it is a very rural area. 2 lane. Not really any homes or businesses near by. I did talk to the tech and he made it sound like they may grant it due to its limited use, I don’t plan to frequent it a ton (no house or business plan). It does sound like that is playing a part on their decision...

That’s a good point. It did however have access off of the highway previously. For 60 or so years (possibly more). Also you can drive 10 miles down the road and count 5+ instances where the site vision distance is worse. Not sure if those driveways are all unpermitted or what… Heck even some...

No this parcel has been its own parcel for over 70 years. Yes it is from a neighbor although not adjoining.

Correct, only other way would be an easement through a neighbor. There are no current easements in place with any neighbors.

Correct. highway runs through with guardrail continuous on both sides. therefore no access/driveway to the land.

Yes this is exactly how my situation is unfolding. And it's ultimately where i see it headed as well (threaten to sue) I have an out but I don't really want to take it (I'd like to end up with this property), that being said I'm not sure i want to risk buying something that is basically...

Yes

I know this is better left for attorneys to answer but it's fun (not sure that's the word) to speculate and get everyone's opinion. Here is my question: I have a signed purchase agreement for this property. If I close on the property can the state say I knew about the access issue ahead of time...

Yes the state was scratching their head because they closed off the access and could not find any documentation that they were warranted to do so (they never purchased any access rights). In talking with them it was pretty clear they were scrambling...

Thanks guys! sent DM to both of you.

Does anyone have a contact for a lawyer that knows real estate and handles easements etc. If so please message me. thanks! I have a very unique situation I am dealing with in Iowa. Basically the state is blocking my access and I have no way to access my property. State highway runs through the...

Only thing I will add is: identifying good neighbors can not be done by pulling up in a truck and asking "hey do you guys practice management". 9 out of 10 times they will go "yeah yeah of course we do, you wont have to worry about us!" I know a lot of people that think "I'm a great neighbor to...

Sheesh dude. Was a generic response because I didn’t want this to go on… But apparently you do. You are mad because I (we) couldn’t read your mind in that you “meant” you built some bracket yada yada. Congratulations man. Nope I can’t find any references. Sorry you got ridiculed to the max...

I thought I was brilliant in doing that last year. Planted right around July 15th. Nice rains came and they shot up fast. By September 1st they were looking phenomenal, lush, green, all of it. Fast forward to October 1st and 80% of that green was ate. Fast forward to Nov 1 and it was almost...
