[QUOTE="jcissell, post: 138228, member: 383"] 130,000 is way too much for 30 acres of land. If you have tons of money and buy real estate to resale in the future I would say go ahead, but in your situation I think I would find something out of town or somewhere else for a cheaper price. The best cotton ground here goes for $2000/acre. Pasture ground is somewhere between $1200 and $2000. Of course there are those pieces that someone is selling for $10,000/acre b/c it is road frontage and he is in no hurry to sell. I am looking to buy a place that is 40 acres and they're asking $140,000 but they made it clear they will work with me on the price. I really don't want to pay more than $100,000. But this place has 3 small houses(1 or 2 bedroom), a 4000 sqft house that has alot of fire damage, a large metal farm shop, another metal shop, a 10 stall cinder block horse barn, and another woodshop/shelter for cows. There is fence on most of the property. This property is on the edge of town and one side butts up to the ghetto, so that affects the price. The man that owned the property died in the house fire 3 or 4 years ago and the family is just getting around to getting rid of it, so everything is grown up pretty good. I just don't think I would borrow a town of money to buy land with nothing on it that is priced that high. [/QUOTE]
