(5 MORE) Critical Mistakes Buying Land

[@HypocriticYT]

I bought acreage with about 1/8 of it being across the road. This guarantees that I won’t have neighbours opposite me 😂 It’s also a good selling point. At about 3/4 mile long on both sides you get great privacy. Remember you can’t control the land and views around you if you don’t own it

[@HypocriticYT]

Always put in a larger septic tank than required. This allows expansion

[@swabee4843]

As a Zoning official in Kentucky, never assume that you can just throw a mobile home, RV, pole barn, 8ft privacy fence, or any other thing on your property just because your in "the country". Call and check everything! And yes! It's cheap land for an expensive reason!

[@youmayberight2434]

1. Not knowing value of said property. 2. Not physically walking property before buying it. Preferrably during a rain. 3. Not getting a survey. 4. Get out there and talk to the neighbors. 5. Make sure electricity is available. 6. Know if it is in a floodzone. 7. Know restrictions 8. Have a title policy. 9. Land leases. Understand them. 10. Septic system. Can it perk? 11. Fracking issues. 12. Water? 13. Zoning? 14. Manufacturing? 15. Mineral rights? Thank you.

[@jeanmartin6410]

On top of mineral rights, also check for water rights. Especially in the south west. You can have, what is called an Arroyo on your property but have no right to the water that runs through it.

Access. Land locked property can be a pain.

[@ravanabrahmarakshas4263]

please describe. what does that mean. thanks

[@jjohnsengraciesmom]

Is there an acess road to ypur property? Can you get a road to your property? Some people sue to get acess to their property but that is a pain.

[@lordtachanka903]

@@ravanabrahmarakshas4263 i know he already explained it but imagine a square inside a square, the smaller inside square is your property, the bigger square it’s inside of is your neighbors property, if you’re completely surrounded by your neighbors property like in that hypothetical situation, you are “land locked” which means you cannot legally access your own property without express permission to move through your neighbors property.

I once had an appraisor for a buyer of my property use comparables from years prior and in significantly different locations. He came up with a very low appraisal for the buyer and they tried to get a price concession based on it . I rejected it of course.

Great to hear!

[@hardworkingamerican8847]

Better have a permit for that tree fort lake look out . Meanwhile a cartel has thousands of workers on thousands of acres in many states where the locals say oh you better not go here or that place . Wonder who is tying the hands of the sherriff and deputies or the locals who don't want this near them or anywhere for that matter . Probably bags of cash on the side and threats from every angle one can imagine . Sorry for the side topic but it is relevant . Definitely will watch this video again along with the ones about what to look for and the do's and don'ts videos on buying a house .

[@HypocriticYT]

It can be an expensive mistake for many if they don’t know the details. If selling get appraisal and add a percentage to cover your costs and amount you are willing to drop, then you get what you want

[@HypocriticYT]

I bought a house once with known damp issues on one side. I saw at some point that they routed the downspouts all to the other side of the house. I used the damp problem to lower the price considerably and once bought I had eaves trough company rout some of the water to the other side and this fixed the issue. The structure itself was not water damage luckily 😂

[@bingo7799]

Good luck getting mineral rights on a purchase. People hold on to them like a dog holds on to a bone. I think Louisiana has a law where after a certain period it reverts back to the land owner. Every state should have that.

[@lorisewsstuff1607]

Thanks for the great information. I was looking for a lot to build a container home on. I really loved one lot in a quiet neighborhood. It had been for sale for several months. The realtors seemed excited I was looking at it. Then we hit a snag. The land had a covenant from the 1980s. The way it was worded, the house had to match the aesthetic of the neighborhood. The realtors were kind enough to point out that anyone with a grudge against me could sue, saying a container home does not match the surrounding houses, which are ranch style. It was really disappointing, but probably saved me in the end. Sadly, the property is still for sale.

[@robertlambert3544]

Thanks, Wayne, for the information. My wife and I will be looking for land after the new year. I live in Mandeville LA and we are looking into property in Marion County Miss. There is a lot of things to know about before buying property.

[@TheRealWayneTurner]

Thank you. Buzz me if you need a agent. I have a good friend over there.

[@WM-xd8zc]

I had a listing agent for finding land, I ended up doing all the work. Lost two properties until I learned she didn't want to do the deal because she was making more money selling houses,. I went an hired multiple agents, they never did any work, never brought me any land, when I found multiple properties. Again they wanted to sell houses. more profit for them.

[@11superlife]

I'm experiencing this right now. I'm thinking about getting a different agent. We have found every lot and none from him.

[@HypocriticYT]

I saw two houses built on one acre lots side by side. There is a very large farm that is upwind that produces industrial chickens, eggs, cattle and pigs. I bet what they buyers didn’t know before is that such farms require large acreage to spread the manure on and its mostly liquid chicken 💩. The smell after spreading is horrible and you have to speed by the place and breathe only from your mouth so you don’t smell it. Now I don’t know of any home air system that can remove such a stench 😮

[@hardworkingamerican8847]

I got somewhat lost when I missed my turn one night coming back from Fort Bragg in Northern California . The fishing trip got canceled and it was right before I had decided to buy a cellphone back in 2001 . I thought this road seems different and it was pitch black out . Only light would be from a ranch house a ways from the road . After 20 minutes of figuring I had to go back there it came , the worst friggin stench ever . It had rained a couple days before real hard and it must have been 150 years of cow shit rotting in a swamp . Turned around so fast and that damn smell stuck in my nose for half an hour after getting miles away from it .

Great advice. The last about moving into an area where manufacturing, food factories etc is very important. I lived two different times in two different areas. One half a block from an onion ring factory near railroad tracks, and the other near a paper factory - that was horrible! Allergies went off the chart. Make sure to check the area at peak times for traffic on the way to the property. Again great advice. Thank you

[@TheRealWayneTurner]

I live about an hour away from a paper factory and once or twice a year when the wind blows just right all the smells from the paper factory make their way to us and it is not a pleasant scent. I can’t imagine what an onion factory would smell like 🧅 😂

[@ericthered760]

If the due diligence period is only 14-30 days, is there a reason you can't do (or would be allowed to do) a lot of this stuff PRIOR to signing any paper obligating you to purchase. That's a lot of ground that you need to cover and many of these things look like deal breakers, so how do you get a head start on the due diligence/research phase ??

[@erniemckracken1593]

Looking at property with an abandoned county road bed, cut thru property. Survey says property line , at right of way 15ft, of old abandoned county road bed . Entrance to property would be accessible with use of abandoned county road. Your thoughts on properties with abandoned roads, rail tracks, still belonging to State.

[@ela111961]

I thought of that many years ago because land was so cheap. But think again at night was so dark that no police, fireman, ambulance, towing, Amazon won't come. I end up buying $35k 3 acre lot in California but accessible to all the above. Patiently save and constantly look until you get all the above. You'll be glad you can visit your land conveniently 24 hours.
