Wow Just Wow....... Land Prices

[tall@wide]

I watch listings almost daily. Yes, I am seeing more inventory and properties sitting for a while now and 'price reduced' after a few weeks. This started a few months ago and is increasing.




For todays market this one looks like a good deal to me for a rec/tillable farm.

Price is in line with most parcels Im seeing for that acerage size, but this one has a good amount of income to go along with it. Looks like it lays well for hunting and the deer should funnel though it well if you look at how the neighborhood lays. Few fingers etc and pretty good access.

If it was closer to me I would be checking this out.

I thought it was listed for a fair price also. The only thing to check out on that farm is neighbors. Along that creek you can be cut off and hurt by bad neighbors. I wouldn't be surprised if that farm is already under contract and just listed for advertisement.

How close is that to where the Rathbun Lake buck came from? I know it doesn't matter, just curious.

no idea, or what buck you're talking about

These were the sheds. I think the buck got poached the next year and the man was fined 20K or something.

From the Rathbun Lake area of southern Iowa, comes these record breaking sheds. Surpassing in score even the mighty harvested Jordan Buck, these just have to be seen to be believed! G2's of 15 6/8" and 16" tower like skyscrapers, closely followed by G3's of 13 6/8" and 14". What is more amazing...

oh gotcha. idk where they were found. I always assumed more like right around the lake like in a park property or something.

I had no idea there was even a market for reproduction of sheds, that someone else found no less...Don't know why someone would want such a thing tbh.
Different strokes I guess.

I think they mostly go into museums, Bass Pros etc

I hear/see softening, for both rec and tillable ground. I have a neighbor that wants a farm I own in N. Mo. We've been talking about it for a couple years now. He's made offers before, but didn't get to my number. He gathered a bunch of info from me the other day to come back with another try. We'll see what the offer is this time around, maybe he's more serious. The softening market doesn't help me any. He's a farmer so he's probably not feeling flush at this point.....

How much lower have you seen rec ground sell for in your area?

Wouldn't be far at all. It's my understanding that both those sheds and the 200 typical that was poached about 10 years back came from the south side of the lake.

Sure
