Land Buyers Be Aware

After looking through 100 properties online and visiting about 50 properties in person, I was able to decide on the farm site that Dad and I would be happy with. This video shares some of the things to do prior to purchasing raw land for agriculture.

Do not purchase raw land unless you complete these 7 steps:

0:00 Intro

1:38 Pay for a survey

2:58 Test soil and water

4:30 Attend commissioner’s and city council meetings

17:28 Visit the property

19:27 Check the crime rate

Are there dogs inside of your fence now? 🤔 what they are doing is an act of intimidation.

Wow! May our Heavenly Father continue to bless you, your family and your home!

It blows my mind how many people do not get a survey of the property. Once the markers are set bury a Heavy Steel Fence Post in concrete so are not easily removed. Do this no matter what as you never know what type of neighbors you have now or in the future. Fences are an excellent idea. I know they are expensive, but maybe it could be included in the financing. Great Advice on making a purchase. So much JOY in your niece, I luv it.

The enthusiasm and excitement from your little cousin bring so much joy to me. She's learning agriculture. It's so beautiful to witness this journey😊. Make my heart smile!

I love how enthusiastic your little cousin is. She is too cute! Look at our future.

Mineral Rights is another factor. My brother build a house in a rural area. Then years later a mining company sent a pipe horizontally under his land to do fracking.

It is a trade secret what fluids are being pumped under his ground to frack. He doesn't trust his well water anymore.

OMG! Her excitement is infectious! I think it is also important to avoid flood zones!

We are South Carolina natives that live in Indianapolis and my 9 year old baby girl is on her 2nd year in garden club at school and she loves it. We have 9 acres in Martin, SC that is 4th generation passed down to us. My plan is to continue my career and do whatever it takes to continue building on it and hope my great grandparents are looking down and proud of us and how far we've come. You inspire us so much. Thank you

That's so beautiful 🤩. She makes me think about how happy generations of the ancestors were to grow things in the great kingdom of Georgia. They knew exactly what type of land they had.

I also suggest you check weather patterns, annual rain fall /snow fall. Also flooding and winds in your area, etc. Assess the danger of Forest fires is also recommended when you are buying Property. I hope you can plant nice fruit and nut trees that will help in being self sustaining. May God Bless you and yours Tiffany !

I would add a visit to the tax accessor's office, view a topology map and get advice from a realtor(land agent) that specializes in raw land. Good job and things are looking great out there.

Your farm will be a good place for field trips for kids when you get more set up.

Your little cousin is so cute! Such enthusiasm!

[soulsaucegoodwin]

That hair makes me all happy and warm inside. It's like a great dessert! So proud of this woman and her Dad coming up sharing all this. That's what's up!

[africadreamin]

The joy in the girls voice and her curiosity says it all for me.

[BettyThompson-qncl]

Thank you for teaching this precious young girl about gardening! She’s adorable

[Yahkahey]

There you go! You need to have more people who is as passionate about the farm like her to help care for it and protect it. She’s so precious….A future farmer indeed!
