JMHO- I would never buy any property that I hadn't
extensively walked out unless I knew there was a
large gold deposit on it.
I've looked at several that had been used by the
neighbors as the neighborhood garbage dump.
The worst have absentee owners that have no
earthly idea their property is in such sad shape.
They usually buy it and use it for about a year
and get bored with it and never go back.
I looked at a lake lot a woman inherited, and she
hadn't seen it in more than 20 years. it needed
extensive work and a culvert, but she would
only acknowledge the way she remembered
It was back when her mother used to stay there
on her getaway days. She wouldn't even let me
send her pictures. Another one was heavily grown
up with brush and had a plywood drug shack in
the middle of it. I figured it would have taken
at least 5 - 10 thousand dollars worth of work to
clean that mess up and haul it off.
I'd have to have all the details and conditions of
the land as part of the contract along with crystal
clear lifetime access points laid out
