227 ACRE Missouri Ozarks home & land compound! We make an offer!

[@deOldGringo]

I love that basement

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

Yeah man, I think about that home often! We were sooooo close to buying it! But now we have a nicer farm, but more than double the price tag! But more acreage as well. But he did a nice job on that home! Thanks have a great weekend!

[@samanthaporter6662]

My family moved from Seattle area to MO last year.... Best choice!

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

I would agree! We just closed on our MO farm!!

[@jphickory522]

My personal opinion…. slow down…you don’t have to find the right place immediately. Missouri is a big state and I personally think you’d be happier with the land in the transition zone from the Ozarks to the prairie land. You get the best of all worlds… gently rolling hills, adequate topsoil in the fields, sand and gravel in the creeks and row crops. You’ll be hard pressed to make productive food plots on this place - very little topsoil. From my perspective, you’ll find a place that fits you and your interests much better if you’re patient.

[@DS-er6wf]

What does this area have - clay?

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

Good info, and I'm guessing as you know life is short, and sure can be shorter than expected! That is why we get after things once we set our minds to it. But it's already been months and many showings so I am trying to be careful to get a farm that will work for us. Stay tuned! Thank you.

[@ryanfarmer5155]

I agree, I'm not sure this area will have anything close to what you had in Illinois, I myself am looking for land in Missouri, it's easy to wanna spend that money on a large piece of dirt. Be patient, the right one will show up, spring is around the corner and a lot of real estate pops up then. Best wishes in your search, my 2 cents, find a large plot of land little further north, rent a place for a year and build what you want, or keep looking

[@brucerushing2363]

I live in north west, MO, they beautiful land up here, I moved up here 9 months ago, I love it .

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

Nice! Still a little cold for me, but we are supposed to close on Friday for our new MO farm! It is in Southern MO!

[@brucerushing2363]

@@KapperOutdoors2.0 congratulations ! We're a little more free here ! Lol !

An incredible amount of planning went into that place, quite impressive. Something catastrophic must have happened for them to walk away at this stage. Now I feel just as bad for them as I do for you and your wife.

There is a VA hospital in both Columbia and St. Louis that might be closer than Springfield.

[@SJA-ox3hs]

Columbia and St. Louis are ridiculously priced land they’re 10 times as much as southern Missouri

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

Yeah I've found that out! That's why we are shopping very rural and farther south! yeesh.! Thanks

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

Well if/when we find the right farm, I'll make the trave sacrifice for the future travel. One step at a time, lots to consider! Thank you

[@rep1989]

that home is beautiful love it! lots of room and love that fireplace.

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

No doubt! Agreed on all!

[@kevinb7540]

Damn our farms is right up the road from you off O in Lacoma!

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

Nice! We might have to get in touch!! We may be teaming up with someone there for some land projects!

[@tim_g3478]

Like you said, if you can see past the junk and clutter the place has good potential. The driveway appears to be much more workable than the airstrip property driveway. It will be interesting how this plays out

[@bobpaterson1845]

With no Disrespect to either of you is this move gonna let you and Mrs K relax a little and just enjoy the fruits of your past labours or is this a millstone round your neck for however many years 🤔 I don't need to know how much a mortgage is etc but just concerned for two really nice hard working people 👌

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

stay tuned! This is a nice farm for sure!! Thanks!

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

Man that is a very legit question!! Honestly at this moment in time I don't have the answer. My HOPE is that we can make the move and then Sharon can retire so we can do the things we enjoy more together along the way. Is it work? Yes, of course, owning land is a lot of outdoor work, but we really do enjoy it. Soooo, I can't say just yet if or how things will turn out. What I can say is I hate tyranny!! :0

[@rugerfarming5387]

That is a really nice place. In my opinion. And i like were it is located.

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

I agree it is a really nice farm!!

Nice!

[@clarkwheeler8764]

Hey Kapper, if you're stressing over SELLING too LOW....how about stressing over PAYING too HIGH--OR BOTH??? Remember---Caveat Vendor and Caveat Emptor!!! I know Mrs K will really like the rooms painted YELLOW. It reminds me of the KITCHEN in the Kentucky farmhouse!! lol.

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

Yep it all factors in to the stress level!! Blue states land value are not nearly what Red states have been!! Just a fact!

[@johndeere8594]

You guys gotta get a side by side with a roof. Or get a five dollar tarp for a roof.

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

lol I told them that I would be sending them a roof for the Polaris!!

[@jakeschisler7525]

That house would need a water softener for sure. We had one put in along with a new water heater and then later in the year we had to replace the pump for the well. The people before us left a lot of crap. As far as internet we had to go with Bright Speed cause there is no fiber optics in Missouri

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

I heard that Missouri (I don't recall which company) is now installing fiber along the existing power lines. I actually saw big rolls of wire on some of the power lines at some of our showings. So it is on the way, at least in some areas!

[@TheWayWalker]

Incorrect. There is fiber optics in Missouri, it just depends on where you are. Some cities have both, some have a cross and some do not have it. Fiber is even in some more rural areas. Example My mom is in Buffalo she has fiber, I am in Springfield, and part of Springfield has it, part is still working on getting it. My house doesn't have it but you go to other places in city and it's 100% fiber optics.

[@nonyabiz1209]

As another poster replied. There is absolutely fiber optic in Missouri. Kansas City was one of the first places in the US to recieve Google fiber. Even rural in many places is getting fiber now.

[@frankdibiase3372]

This one’s a slam dunk!

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

It really is a nice farm!!

[@birdhunter2754]

Whats the INS per year on a place like this. Taxes ? I do enjoy your vids .very interesting .

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

Well ours is similar and its getting expensive! I think we're approaching nearly $500 a month now!! :0

[@jakeschisler7525]

So you have to go to a VA hospital? There are several in the state. That house is setup like mine. The last 2 days I have found sheds first time ever.

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

Congrats on finding sheds! Good feeling for sure

[@jimkavalier2831]

Mrs Kapper could get a fish from that pond..... outside of needing about a hundred ton of stone for the driveway, this one looks pretty darn good 👍

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

lol both good calls! I can handle driveway stone and tractor work! Thanks

[@JamesG1126]

Land is $2k/acre tops or $450k. House and improvements at $350k tops. Top dollar is $800k. Especially with high interest rates.

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

Sorry but you're info is about 3 to 4 years old. Start searching current land sales and pricing. It is painful, but I assure you, land is selling thanks to all the crazies in the cities and people want to get in the country!

[@JamesG1126]

@@KapperOutdoors2.0Values have held so far but you can't double mortgage interest rates and expect no impact. I predict one year from now, the values I show will be market values. If you have to buy now, you can't wait but waiting is the likely best financial move. It is a pretty piece of land and a nice house.

[@ryanfarmer5155]

My one bit of advice, by the looks of the outdoor video pulling in (been thru it myself) have in writing a final walkthrough and all contents (inside and outside) must be removed from property before formal closing and do that about one week before closing to guage how much they dont clean up, i have seen people leave all kinds of stuff for you to clean, youll thank me later!! Best of luck

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

Thanks for the tip! And yes we've been there before on places we have purchased! All kinds of bonus stuff that generally ain't worth much :-)

[@icehog2367]

Man, I just can not see the value in these places that you're considering. I'm praying that they reject your offer for your sake, it's not even close to a deal, especially knowing you're taking out a big mortgage 👎

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

Shopping for land value right now is very hard to be sure!! But it's either shop with current market values or just stay home..

[@modkartracer3358]

You're in a good flyway in that part of Missouri, so you can get back into some good waterfowl hunts, especially during the migration.
