[QUOTE="john250, post: 974814, member: 4406"] I should leave you alone, but I'm back. :wave: How much of the 118 acres will raise crops? I hadn't considered that. To me VA is beautiful but mostly pasture and hunting leases. I don't get over the mountains very often. In Indiana/Ohio anything which will raise crops is selling for $5000+. Really. Now, it is pretty crazy to give $5000/acre for land which may produce 60bu beans in good hands in good years, but if you want it that is the price. Most buyers are adding that land to existing, successful operations so the whole burden doesn't fall on the newest purchased. If you have done your pencilwork and you really can't sleep at more than $130K then put some flowers on the gentleman's grave, do what you can for the widow, but don't count on owning that land unless you can somehow keep it a secret from every realtor and auctioneer in the county. And your aggressive neighbors. In 30yrs I hope you can look back and say you made the right choice. Best wishes. [/QUOTE]
