I have been renting some land from a older couple since 1998. They have no kids to leave there land too. Unfortunately the husband died this past week and the wife called me and asked did I want to purchase the farm I have been renting which is 118 acres about 6 miles down the road from my house. The wife asked me to be a paul bearer in which I agreed. I asked her how much did she want for the land she advised me that she didn't know she hadn't really thought about it. I looked up tax accessment and its accessed at $168,000. I really only wanted to offer $130,000 she said she really wanted me to buy it cause i took care of the land and $130,000 is my comfort zone anything more i may tell her to sell to someone else. Do you think it would be wrong to tell her before she gives me a price think about all the stuff I have done for them over the years and not charged them? They had a habit of always wanted me to work for free but they wanted there rent money and it better not be late. Should I mention that or just let her tell me what she wants then mention or not say anything at all ? I don't want to sound like im greedy or trying to take advantage of her but geez I have done alot for them and still continuing currently. I honestly will be pissed if I don't get a discounted price and anytime she calls me over to do storm clean up she will get a bill like everyone else no more freebies.
