Is it a good idea to divide your rural property to help it sell? That question can only be answered once the landowner determines their objectives, and if the characteristics of the property lend itself to division. Each property should be evaluated on a case by case basis to determine if a division will help the owner make the sell. Recently I have made recommendations to two different land owners about whether they should offer their properties as a whole Read more…

In order for a seller to command top dollar for the sale of a rural piece of land, a buyer must generally be very certain of what they are purchasing. The degree of certainty, or the comfort level, the buyer has with a given property often directly affects the price they are willing to pay. “Markets hate uncertainty” is a saying we’ve all heard dozens of times in the past few years. The real estate market is also not averse Read more…
On the way home from school last Friday, my son JD, asked me “What is wrong with buying a property that already has a conservation easement on it?” You may think that is an odd question for a 12 year old to ask, but around my house we talk about land all the time. The previous week he had been riding with me in the truck as I was on a Bluetooth phone conversation with a client who was considering Read more…
“Well how many acres actually make up this property?” If you have looked at more than about 5 parcels of land, you have no doubt come across a property where it wasn’t exactly clear how many acres constitute the given tract.

The results of the election this week took many, if not most, of us by surprise. President-elect Donald Trump is expected to make a dramatic course change from the direction President Obama has been leading our nation. My hope is that this newly charted course takes business owners and investors to new places of profitability and opportunity, while limiting government obstruction with common-sense regulations. I am not a prognosticator, especially when it comes to politics. Nor do I hitch my Read more…
