Love how you just cut to the chase

Thank you! I didn't realize 3 acres would be that different!

100% agree on the amount of work needed to clear and maintain raw land. I bought 3 acres on the jersey shore about a year ago and spent way more time than I originally planed working the land and I'm still not done. I also had trespassers I caught on my trail cameras so I put up "Private Property" signs and a chain link gate at the drive way entrance. Also the wildlife has been a concern. Learning more and more each time I put in work. Thanks for sharing your experience.

You can handle three acres of grassland if you have the right equipment. My neighbor has a small tractor and does 10 acres with an attachment.

@KeepItTiny 6 ай бұрын

Agreed! Its all about knowing what you're getting into and acting accordingly. Unfortunately most people under assume how difficult things will be.

@JerseyAcres 6 ай бұрын

Yes... having the right equipment helps a lot. I plan on buying a compact tractor at some point.

Private* lol From my experience, make cheap private property signs from plywood. I bought some really nice metal signs and they got stolen. Once I made the plywood signs, they saw no value so no one stole them. 😂

I have done very well buying and selling land from tax inventory. I never had to touch the land.

@KeepItTiny 6 ай бұрын

Thats awesome! I'm guessing you are using land like a commodity and buying low and selling high? That's a solid business model.

Since I live on site where my glamp village is set up I cut my 2 acres pretty much weekly with a medium sized tractor anyone can master. My 80+ year old neighbor she still does it herself (identical tractor). Plus Jamie can be an income stream if farmer can collect all that grass for hey bails. Then they pay YOU. Last you can and goat yoga activity, they'll eat it all up. But you,d have to live on site of course because your next problem would be to stop the coyotes from eatting your goat employees😂

Another country person here... you don't want people trespassing. Get a llama and make good friends with your new pet. Llama will graze, and anything that comes on your property that doesn't belong there... just know, llama got it. Also my great uncle raised honey bees. Eventually he stopped but the hives were still there but empty. People were more frightened by the hives, than they were the property dogs. Just sayin... 😎

It also helps if you can get permits to burn after brush hogging.

@KeepItTiny 6 ай бұрын

I have never heard of this before until right now! I am about to go down a rabbit hole researching this. I didn't know burning what is left after brush hogging was a thing.

@@KeepItTiny yeah. You can use the ash for your plant. You could also utilize them in a campsite compost pile. Anytime you have to haul away debris the landscaping company will charge you for that service. Then some landfills have a special area where they take it and compost it for free or they charge for it.

Any tips on actually walking land that you're interested in? I've watched several videos of yours and think you are doing a great job! My interests are a bit more for land that can be a retreat/getaway, maybe eventually a homestead but I'm checking out 3 sites tomorrow and curious what is a big deal, what's not a big deal, etc. Thanks!

- the size of animal poop, big poop means the area is a walking path for bigger animals. - The neighborhood and neighbors (does it match the vibe you have or that you are looking for) - Is there water on the land? Where is? Is it "running" water or does it just stand still. Do you want water and will you be okay to manage it. - Are the property lines easy to see/acknowledge - Is there privacy? How much does that mean to you? - Is it off of a dirt/gravel road? Is it off of a city kept road? Is it on a private road? All mean very different things. Are you okay upkeeping a road? - Check FEMA to see if its in a flood zone - Are there a lot of trees? Will you cut them down or leave them? - Is there a place on the land that would make sense for what you are looking to build? A tiny house would need different (space) things than a 5 bedroom 2 bathroom home. - Where are the closest utility lines? - What are the zoning laws for the land? - Is the land on a slope? Are there giant rocks on the land? All things that would effect the ability to build certain buildings. The list goes on but those are the things that are top of mind for me.

when I buy a land of 1000 dollars, how much plus do I have to pay, an agent told me "You will pay pay pro rated taxes title recording fees and a $395 broker compliance fee" is it true? According to my search, buyer should not pay but the price of the sale. (value of the property unless taxes due or something like that) Seller must pay them. Am I wrong, anyone who knows about the subject?

Curious how you handle expensive outdoor amenities from getting stolen or used by non guests, since it seems you are off-site, for example a nice Solo stove? Or if you had a shower/ toilet facilities that was shared amongst 2-3 sites, is it kept unlocked or is there a keypad code to get in?

@KeepItTiny 6 ай бұрын

Great question; my area is very remote. I only have two neighbors, as far as the eye can see. So since I'm not centrally located, the only people in the area are the people who are supposed to be there. Also, my cabin is set up about 200 yards away from the road. So people passing by cannot fully see what's going on up by the cabin. This eliminates most of the trouble because people would have to be pretty brazen to park and walk all the way up to check things out, and they also don't even know what's up there. Lastly, I have a camera that watches the fire pit area of my cabin. The firepit shows all of my outdoor amenities, and it also shows how someone would go in and out of my space. So this camera pretty much shows me everything.
