Just got word the bank (they owned it) accepted our offer for the 28 acres. : Of course now the real costs begin, getting a driveway cut in to connec to the internal paths, getting a well drilled, putting up shelter of some sort...and the real fun!

We will own down to the barn in this picture, this is the large pasture, there is also a smaller pasture on the side of tis one, then about 20 acres of hardwoods with internal roads and a small pond.

Right now the pond is pretty dry, but hopefully it will fill back up!

Here is one of the internal roads.

Some nice trees!

Nice looking area, congrats

 

[9mmMike]

Thanks All! I figured the money is better spent on land and improvements rather than letting the stock market take it!

It looks great.
What is the soil like & how far is it from civilisation?

 

[9mmMike]

The pasture soil is sandy/clay in the woods it is mostly sandy, typical northern Alabama soil. The largest town is Fort Payne, Alabama which is 20 miles, followed by Rome, Ga at 26 miles. The nearest large City would be Chattanooga at about 50-60 miles.

Can you describe a bit on the particulars of finding it? Like did you go through a realtor or simply drive around looking? Was it hard to negotiate with the bank or would you recommend the rest of us to try that route?

I want some land, but I'm not rich.

Congratulations! That's great news! Now you have a chance to get out of this place whatever you can put into it. What a wonderful opportunity!

 

[9mmMike]

I used www.landwatch.com and www.landcrawler.com, then contactred the various realtors, one of them heard about this parcel coming available and I jumped on it before it went live on the sites.
