I can... I can put you on the lease we lost, cost you $18 per acre now, mostly cattle land with a couple of small wood spots..
 
It's getting very hard to find any private land or willing farmers in this area that want to lease. Alot due to the lack of respect from past hunters. . Seems as if everyone and their brother are hunting these days. Just years ago the farms bordering our farm didnt have a soul hunting. Not a bad thing it's just hunting has became such a popular activity.
 
crazy to lease when you can buy. tons of great properties on the market. Buy it, hunt it and watch it go up in value where a lease goes up in smoke.


i couldn't live the life i live now without purchasing farms in the past. every single one has went up in value ad they all sold the 1st week on the market. sell your truck, boat, utv, motorcycle, iPhone etc and buy sa piece of security.

Funny thing about your post is most people dont actually own the things you say to sell. American logic is to pay for things you don't own. I cant speak for the OP but your suggestion would get me no more than $5000 and no way to commute anywhere. Just hunt public.. its just as good if you aren't too lazy to find a spot. Keep looking and save money in the meantime. Nothing wrong with leasing, but Redblood is right.. you aren't going to get that money back.

So you would sell all buy a cheap car net 3500. Buy the land and have a payment on something not depreciating in value

I've read comments from people saying that hunter numbers have been slowly and steadily decreasing?

Everyone says that, but hunter numbers are actually on a slight increase since 2012. Female hunters, foodies, and nontraditional hunters are credited for this increase. Leases are hard to come by because the average TN hunter is a suburbanite looking for hunting land within an hour's drive. In middle TN, you're hard pressed to get more than an hour from the suburbs in any direction, so most or all of the land is constantly leased up with increasing prices.

I'm not 100% sure what you are saying but I think it makes more sense now. Are you saying sell all of the stuff and buy a cheaper vehicle which would leave me $3500 to make a first payment on the land? It really all depends on the OPs financial situation and ability to make payments after that though. He would only have one "sell to buy" option.. beyond that it'd be a waste if payments couldn't be met, right?

Yes sir that's what I was saying. I wish I would have caught on when I was 21 instead of 41. Lol by all means it depends on a individuals ability to make the payments

boom!
 
Private land is hard to come by. If somebody is willing to lease, they want a fortune these days. I'm debating buying a little chunk out in middle TN where there are more deer. The numbers is our area are substantially lower to many spots in Unit L.
