[QUOTE="Chuck, post: 58193, member: 579"] I just recently lost a place I had a handshake deal on because a dentist from Chicago nearly doubled my offer. I guess if folks need it, you can't blame them for taking the money,not that it didn't p-ss me off. Maybe the guy will fall out of his tree stand :lol: I wonder where it will end. A place sold at auction here last week,the rougher ground and timber brought exactly twice what the better tracts did. At another sale close to here a lawyer walked in late and bid 5100 an acre, signed on to write out a check for half a million dollars like he was buying lunch. I've heard of brush and ditches selling for 3-4000 an acre. Nuts. I'm adding this on to clear up a couple of questions I got. The 5100 was for decent farm land, not pasture or timber. Here's another one for you. 800+ acres of farm land sold 25-30 miles south of here about 3 weeks ago. Split into a bunch of parcels. The first winning bid was over 5000 an acre from a personal injury lawyer. He took it all for that price. Pencil that one out. [/QUOTE]
