Someone seems to think I'm the dumbest land owner in Iowa... maybe in the US or possibly the world.
He thought I would accept a cash offer on my land.
(Truthfully, I would if the price was right)
But not at a loss.
Land
values have increased since we bought the place. Record breaking land
sales, in fact, of well over 10,000/acre. (My moderate CSR rated land is
not worth that, I'm not crazy.)
But someone thought I was.
I looked up this guy and he seems like a land speculator, gobbling up land on the cheap stating, "high seller satisfaction."
Maybe gullible, cash-trapped sellers but for me? Hmmpf, I don't think so.
Offering up a price of about half of what it's worth and about a twentieth of what I "might" consider.
I don't really care to be insulted and my squatters, like this doe, don't like it either.
To anyone listening, my land ain't for sale.

I can see your farm is really changing! I will look on Google and see if they have recent photography. Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteWow, it looks great! Your work really shows!
ReplyDeleteThe Kentucky Coffeetree that was about 3 ft last time you saw it is now +/-25ft.
DeleteThe chestnuts that you gave me are producing chestnuts of their own.
A pair of catalpa are 16 and 20+ feet.
I hope you are doing well, my friend.
Merry Christmas, David, to you and yours!
Hadn't logged into my feed reader in a while and was surprised and pleased to see a new The Stranded Tree Farm post. Hope you and yours are doing well, Joel!
ReplyDeleteWe're doing okay and I invite you to stop by the acreage (summer is best time)
DeleteAt the very least, we need to catch up
I hope you all are doing well, my friend!
