News You Can Use


9:13 AM – July 21, 2016

Joining you much later in the morning today as at 5 am I was busy with some Land Group business planning.  Today is gonna be quick, just some News You Can Use.  This is sort of my saying in the office, “News You Can Use”. So here it is, even though a Yale economist wrote yesterday in the New York Times diminishing the long term returns of land as an investment vehicle I just thought I would throw out a few recent events I have witnessed.

In Worcester County over 100 acres of high quality  farmland just sold for more than $8,000 an acre. Additionally, I reviewed a few sales in the farm country of Illinois where irrigated land closed well over $10,000 an acre.  It seems to me a growing world population together with the growing interest in protein based foods (beef, pork and chicken) which need the grain for feed, farmland remains a safe investment plan.  The news of the day is the local dirt market remains strong for the farm sector while other smaller users like solar and some residential projects have emerged.  The timber marketplace remains flooded, but the silver is there is a lot of unrealized value on many tracts which have harvestable timber.  If you want more info on recent land sales and data in the region shoot us an email and we can email or mail our Land Report to you.

Onward!

NAVIGATING LAND ACQUISITION

BUYING DIRT BEGINS WITH UNDERSTANDING YOUR GOALS FOR THE LAND.  HERE ARE A FEW BASIC QUESTIONS.

First, what is your intended use of the land? Is hunting a priority, farming, or is it a place to build your dream getaway?

Second, is this an investment requiring annualized return or long-term financial planning?

Third, what is the geography of where you want to find this land? This is perhaps the most important factor…

Fourth, are you considering using a local bank or the regional farm credit system to assist you in the acquisition?

Fifth, do you have a handle on land values? Local list services and land websites do little to assist you in understanding basic dirt value absent of improvements. The Land Group specializes in understanding this marketplace. Join LANDLINK on TheLandGroup.com to learn how we can provide you recent sales data, free of charge, throughout your land search.
