what are y'all paying per acre where you live? Land is expensive!

in the mountains in the central part of PA land is starting to get pricer, but not expensive. The rancher/hunting clubs are buying up big stretches.

Over here in Holland, good pasture land goes for bout 40.000 Euro per hectare.

What are the prices in West, or Middle Tn?
I am interested in land there on a stream

Over here in Holland, good pasture land goes for bout 40.000 Euro per hectare.

1 Hectare is about 2.5 acres and the Euro is about $1.37 today for those of us who think in dollars and acres.

So that's the equivalent of about $22,000 per acre in US terms, if I figured that right.

If you have an income without needing employment (pension, annuity etc) of more than about 500 euros a month - sorry do not know the exchange rate offhand, then move to Portugal. A couple can live quite well on that amount, and if you are a TBN reader then you will obviously be able to improve anything you buy and probably produce a bit of your own food too. Very difficult to quote prices, but a few acres with a tumbledown house can be as low as €10,000 around Castelo Branco, our nearest town. Anything over €100,000 will get you land and a liveable house, or just a good house. Old McDonald.

Well that sounds good, but what if you don't speak or read Portugese? Wouldn't that put a bit of a damper on things?

Does this look like a million dollars?

It's ten acres. (600-plus ft square.) It just sold at $100,000 per acre. It adjoins an existing vineyard.
Land-preservation zoning allows one house and prohibits subdividing. Rezoning is impossible in this, the 'greenest' county in the US, so far as I know.

I drive in that shared easement, and was astonished one day to find the traditional apple orchard on this parcel had been ripped out and shredded into those mounds in the background.

A winery from the Central Coast bought it to grow grapes in the Sonoma County - Russian River domain. It's a business venture and that's what they were willing to pay. I've seen that much paid for view parcels nearby but not simply ag land.

California: It is seven-figures + in Marin County with one acre minimum!!

jb, not at all. Most younger people, and virtually everyone in business has someone in the organisation who speaks English. I know a few words (so I should after 4 years) but not enough to converse, yet I still get by. Old McDonald.

saw two diffrent listings in the paper the other day.....

one was for 5200 an acre (60 acre plot, half tillable half woods)
the other was for 7500 an acre but twice as close to "the big city" (30 acre plot)
