Tillable land prices here have definitely come off the highs, I'd say 10% at least depending on the piece, now the neighbor puts a land for sale sign on a 194acres 175 tillable. It doesn't border me but it's pretty close to home..... He's only asking about 30% more than a recent land auction sale, on a very similar size tract and very similar CSRs. He might get it but he s not getting it from me. I'm not paying 30% more than a recent auction he s asking 184/CSR2 point. If he wanted that he should have sold 1.5-2 years ago.
I'm interested in the farm but only if he comes off his pie in the sky asking price. Farm has a quite a bit of very light blow sand and sand veins I'd say of the 175 Tillable, 40 acres is very light.
I know I know ya normally only get 1 chance to buy the neighbors farm, but I don't like being instantly under water when I sign the papers.
It seems the lower quality farm land here is come down quite a bit. Even a farm that would have brought 20,000 2 years ago, Brought 17,500 on an open bid good farm, but the market has definitely retreated.
