My grandfather sold property in Kentucky, kept the mineral rights, and at some point started receiving a few hundred a month that eventually reached around a grand a month for about 20 years until slowing down to nothing with the explanation there wasn't much demand for high sulphur coal anymore. A few years later the politicians in KY implemented a yearly unmined minerals tax. Anyway, that tax went unpaid so the state sold the property at an auction...probably to the corporations that bought the politicians. Add that tidbit to your wealth of knowledge.

When I first moved to Colorado we purchased land without knowing any of this. We had to put in a well, but we did not have water rights. The subdivision owned the water rights and could restrict how much you use. My second house in Colorado I did not own the mineral rights which meant that there could be fracking under the property. That was one reason that we sold that house. The fracking started going crazy in the neighborhood with lateral fracking. So you're really do have to watch water, mineral rights and surveys. Live and learn.

[@tdeath9813]

If you buy property and plan on building start looking at the costs of building. Price of well, house plans, electricity, septic and even a foundation. A footing and stem wall foundation in rural Idaho for a 20x20 foot foundation was quoted at $20, 000 to $30,000 and excavation was about the same. $40,000 to $60,000 just for the foundation! The modular (Boxabl) we plan on putting there is $50,000. So we are looking at other foundation options. Crazy times for sure!

Sometimes I think an agent for buying land is for people that are too busy or too lazy to do it themselves. If you spend the time to learn and have a title attorney you can do it yourself.

three years ago i found a beautiful 6 acre piece of land "with water". I asked the owner if he would do owner financing for 2 years until i could get bank financing for it. because here in WAshington state a bank will NOT finance land unless you already have building permits. which means you have to jump through all of county hoops before they give you building permits. The "shared well" ended up not being an approved water source by the health department so i needed to dig my own well. I was in a water companies service area so i had to get their permission first. they took 5 months to tell me NO, i couldn't dig a well, they wanted me to hook up to their lines with a price of $115k. I got a lawyer who looked up the laws to get around the water company. sometimes buying land can take way more time when having to deal with counties, permits etc. it is probably easier in different states that aren't run by democrats.

It is worse with fascist republican run state comrade, it was your responsibility to find out the restrictions on water.

@@lisad2701 no, the seller has no authority. It’s the building codes and possibly HOA restrictions if any.

[@smokejaguarsix7757]

The seller has some authority over what you do if its owner financed. It must be spelled out in the contract. If it isnt in there then they cant although, HOAs (if any), City, Municiple, State and County will have restrictions on some types of land based on zoning, existing improvements, health and building codes, EPA statutes, the Water Board, FEMA if its a flood plain, etc.

[@wownewstome6123]

Note that not a states have laws protecting the buyer from hidden restrictions From the same article: "many states make it mandatory for the seller to disclose any deed restrictions to the buyer in writing"

Interesting that you both think that Residential zoning is preferable. We are zoned AG and it's the only reason we can't really be harassed. Does this vary depending on state?

How do you investigate a wooded lot. Like walking through. What if you can't get through...

[@bradleyhenderson1198]

Do you have enough money to buy the land? Then do. Do you not? Then you can't buy the land and need more money. Pretty simple, really.

I would love to sell my land as owner financed....but you can bet i'd be getting an attorney involved...and know all my avenues, with all the right paperwork....i would need to be able to kick off the purchasers in the event of non-payment which might happen more than i want. I heard owner financing people churning people (dead-beat buyers) in and out of their land making lots of money and never actually selling their land. I just don't want this headache...but then again....could generate a lot of money....between cleaning the clearing the land of junk-garbage.

May I ask what state your land is located in?

Dang... Wished you lived in Florida. Would have used you as my real estate agent to help me find land 😁🙂

[@Rochellecastro1]

Any realtor can help you with that! We get new listings every day! It won’t cost buyer nothing, because the Seller pays the commission!

I just subscribed. Is it possible to purchase land ready to install a manufactured home onto? If so how would one go about this venture?

[@JohnMiller-zn9pf]

as she mentioned in the video, drive around the area you want to buy in. look for lots with abandons mobile homes, lots with utility pole and box with nothing else ( previous owner may have moved trailer or had a large RV set up)
