Oh god no i have no intention of buying sight unseen, the size of the land in question and the things i want to do with it make thst impossible

Good, you wouldn't believe what some folks do.....but then again you probably would.

You can get free or low cost soil analysis through local or state colleges or agencies.

Good idea to do a good study before you buy anything.

Behind where I used to live back in the sticks some people from PA bought property sight unseen from property maps turns out the streets on the map were never put in and they could NOT get to their property.

After years of paying taxes on it they sold, my parents bought it for a song....just to leave wild.

Now about that land, how is the clay content around here? I heard that some parts of ne oh are very clay heavy and undesirable

is that a threat or what? and I sold my combine - not for rent. Maybe you are going to have people kidnapped and

make them slave labor? Or, more likely, ? ... put in a fishing lake and a campground? Glad I have my ccw.

No no when i said "unknowingly" i meant you wouldnt know it was my place, but u would come of ur iwn volition because u wanted to. I plan on doing something on that land besides just farming. And if i do it right, its something that i havent seen from any other such place in the entire country.....and ive looked.

Northern Summit County around Richfield might be an option. Values have dropped significantly since the Coliseum vanished. Easy access to Akron and Cleveland.

Actually u hit on my ideal place. Thats exactly where i'll be looking the hardest.

near Kentucky. The farmland around here in ne ohio is just awful. You wouldn't like it........................

Hmmm, u know why that is?

That's one of the places i've looked at. For what i want to do with the property though it might be too far from major population centers. North Laurence is another leading candidate. Has to be in a township but you get too close to Cleveland/Akron and the property goes from a few hundred thousand to several million.

True enough. Closest place is Mansfield. ..
