Prices in western South Dakota are on the rise but still behind what is being quoted in this thread, except for Kansas. Irrigated ground in my area sold for about $2000 a couple of years ago and now it is bringing $4000 plus in smaller parcels around 40 to 80 acres. A place just went on the market for $4500 an acre with a small house, nice metal barn/shop, and the usual corrals. The ground has a half circle pivot and grazing land.
I hear that there are people from each coast looking to escape what they created there looking to move here so they can do it again. Hope it isn't true.
Property is going crazy here.
A buddy has contacts in a high dollar lake community, and real estate agents.
Some of these places are 25% plus of what they were a year ago.
And they aren't showing houses and signing deals with the first qualified buyer
who pits money down.
It like a silent auction.
Open house.
Make a sealed bid offer.
In two or three weeks, the owner decides if/which bid gets it.
10% over, plus is needed to have a chance.
