[QUOTE="Ouachita, post: 1849149, member: 16802"] Those prices are nuts, but we are starting to see land prices get crazy here too, starting with Al’s invention of the internet and then especially with Covid. I bought 80 acres of this place in 1996 for $50,000, and added another 50 acres in 2010 for $30,000. Cheap dirt, and I didn’t feel as fortunate then as I do now. Only 8 acres was improved pasture. The rest was cutover mix pine/hardwood timberland, about 4.5-5.2 pH. Over the years I’ve spent close to quadruple the purchase price to clear about 70 acres of it and bring the soil to a reasonable condition. Although it is much improved I still sometimes feel like I’m only halfway there, but it enjoyable and I feel I’m being a good steward (patting myself on the back) [/QUOTE]
