Pasture ground in Iowa.

[DeereClone]

ok.. was a little worried when people were throwing out $4000... But it is in a pretty good area. Right off of blacktop and when I say the terraces and fences were poor, I dont know how poor. Parents sold off the cattle probably 10 years ago.. and have been renting it for the last several years, and that dosnt pay at all. Dont really want to say to much as they have a contract on it with a closing in march.. But I think they did alright. Thanks again guys! Just not much that has sold the last couple years in SWI to get a good gauge.

Pasture ground is held pretty tight in Iowa because it is pretty rare, so finding good comps would be tough.

A $4,000 figure would have to be the perfect pasture in a great area, those are impossible to find because they have probably already been converted to row crop!

I think you did alright if you are close to the figure I was throwing out there....congrats!

You haven't lived until you've taken a 800 bushel graincart down a 35% slope. You might have to set your busch light down though.

The first thing I would do is find an agent w/o the conflict of interest . . .

Most farms are sold in dual agency, where the listing agent technically represents both sides, because most buyers are informed enough that they don't need a buying agent. The dual agency thing is a formality more than anything.

When you are pulling NH3, look back and can read the side of the tanks, you know it is steep.

When I ran a sprayer I always loved the guys that got mad at me for running over corn on steep hills. I mean its not like sprayer was sliding down the hill or anything.

SWIA is gods country I do agree, if by chance this is around the Loess Hills or any other Big deer country by chance Id factor that into the price. Some people pay big $$$ to hunt big deer, check out Whitetailproperties and see for yourself.
