Hunting Land as an Investment - Ten Ways to Make Money Buying Land

Hunting land as an investment. Buying recreational land can be a good investment if you treat is as an investment. Here are ten ways to generate income from your hunting land.
When buying hunting land, consider the possibilities for getting a return on your land investment.
Land investing is so much more fun that houses sense you dont have all the headaches involved in owning houses and trying to rent them out.
Having a piece of hunting land to spend quality time with your family or even alone time to be closer to nature is priceless.

Another great video sir please keep them coming. I purchased my 200 acres in WV almost 30 years ago. After watching your videos I have contacted the state foresters for my farm and they are coming out July 2nd to go over my property and develop plans for enrolling my property as a managed timber land and see what other government programs I qualify for. We have been improving the property for a long time but I had a bad logger on my last timber thinning and I need to reclaim the areas and roads he messed up. Now 30 years later having land and improving it is important as my income level has increased over the years and I might as well be spending money to upgrade my hunting land. Overall I wanted to say thanks for your channel and I'm learning a lot from you as our soil in WV is a little less rocky than PA but the weather only slightly warmer than Central PA. My food plots are being created in previously forested lands so your videos are spot on for me. I want to find out more on potential enrollment in the waste of taxpayer money on the carbon credit scheme.

[@ChilcoteForestryServices]

You may as well get a little cash for carbon credits. There are several programs out there

Good stuff here. My family sold our 500 acre ranch that was covered in hardwoods here in the Texas Post Oak Belt. I have been saving and planning to buy my own acreage…but at 32 years old I’m 100% focused on anything that cash flows and appreciates. This helps combine the financial goals with recreational hunting/personal goals

[@ChilcoteForestryServices]

Has to make sense financially

[@FatGuyInALittleCoat1]

@@ChilcoteForestryServices my grandfather grew up on a dirt floor and died a self made deca-millionaire. He bought thousands of acres and held them for decades. Land will always make sense financially if you have a good purchase agreement in place

@@ChilcoteForestryServices thank you so much! I really enjoy hunting and would love to buy a property with a nice standing woods. There is nothing I love more than conservation. Once land is gone it’s gone. They are developing all kinds of farm fields around me in Ohio. I plan on buying some land in Kentucky. I would like to learn more about Carbon Credits. Please keep making these videos. You have taught me a lot and I’m very hungry to learn as much as I can in this industry. Take care! God Bless!

[@BluNinjaPig]

I just payed off and signed the deed to 12 acres of forest land with a creek. I bought it because it was cheap and I like camping/hiking. I’m also a photographer and have an LLC. Now I have no idea what I’m doing. Right now this land is a liability. Would it be smart to record the land under my LLC? Also, do you have videos on things you can do if you own mountainous land? I’m glad I found your channel. I’m just a guy that wanted to own my own camping area with I water supply.

[@ChilcoteForestryServices]

It might be. If you actively manage timber there could be some deductions and depreciation on equipment

[@ChilcoteForestryServices]

You could also use it for collateral to buy another one

[@Aubatron]

Great video. Do you have one going into more details about the tax deductions?

[@ChilcoteForestryServices]

I don't want to act like a tax attorney. It's so complex you need to consult with an expert

[@stephenkutney9626]

Maple syrup, Christmas trees, camping permits are other ideas. If you harvest trees you will pay taxes depending on your status. Status is defined as a hobby, investor, or business.

[@ChilcoteForestryServices]

Good points, probly good to have an income steam so to hold it as a business

[@brianbotkin7484]

You mention in this video about investment and tax strategies for high income earners. Have you produced that video yet? Could you post a link to that video if so? Thanks again

[@ChilcoteForestryServices]

I think what I was getting at was that a family could build generational/legacy wealth using 1031 exchages to create a tax frèe investment strategy. Let me know if you want more on this

On your list is #7 Spring Water, but you did not discuss. Can you discuss please?

[@ChilcoteForestryServices]

Spring water is a tough one. I have had investors try to sell it but the local govt really hates the idea. Can be lucrative if you can make it happen. You must be careful not to draw down the local aquifer and folks nearby may have trouble getting well water. Surface spring water collected is best but I really dont know much about the process. Never had anyone successfully get a deal with a water company

What’s the best way to sell timber?

[@ChilcoteForestryServices]

Look for a consulting forester. Interview to see if their methods align with your goals

[@mylexrcfupgrades1222]

Can you do a video on Carbon credits?

[@ChilcoteForestryServices]

I will try. Im not an expert but i can maybe talk about what the dift types are

[@RideWithTheWolf]

I'm looking at land that is labeled recreational land. I guess you can camp and hunt on it. In that case, can I camp on the land full time? Can I rent camping spaces and things like that? The only thing is it's surrounded by BIA so I'm wondering what the risks are ...

[@ChilcoteForestryServices]

Just check with township zoning to see what is allowed. Usually can be found on web

[@sailingrgb8487]

So what about Spring Water?

[@ChilcoteForestryServices]

Yes, its definitely possible but rare. I know an investor whos been working on a water deal for yrs
