#303 I am in on farm land in Ohio. Corn and soybean farms to be more specific.

Buy the farm land and rent the land out to farmers. You can even work a deal to get a portion of farmed product profits. You both win in that scenario. Neighboring farms would be most interested because they have the equipment right there.

#299. The way some of them look down here I might put on a john deer hat and relax. Of course the idea of them on a hairy backed trucker doesn’t give me warm fuzzies.

It is what it is. I’m sure the people leaving the facility are a lot less riled up than when they entered so the results are different than someone entering a go go bar.

#232, glad to know. Is there anyone interested on investing farm land? I saw a house with 6 ac land asking 500k, it is half an hour away from Princeton. While RE market is down, price of land will go up. So, it is still a good deal.

Hmmlets see I want to invest into a farm land:

Farm land in Iowa – is 2000$/acre (it was 100$ last year)

6 acres in Iowa – 12000$.
heck, 100 acres in Iowa = 200K.

6 acres in NJ = 500K with probably at least 5-6K taxes (It is a house you said?)

That 6 acres just do not seem like a goof farmland investment.

Hang on a bit. Things are gonna get uglier (ugly in your favor, that is), soon.

If the family gets too annoying, you can pull a John List. Nobody will look for them for a while. Maybe you can even tell everybody you put them in assisted living.

“Wachovia Corp. announced Monday it will slash its workforce on Wall Street by another 12%”

Is that Wall St, North Dakota?

“The problem is no matter what you do the facility will eventually become corrupt with additional services.”

Mitchell, how does one further corrupt corruption?

I like the way they handle it down in your parts. Put a big billboard over a converted Stuckey’s on I-77, advertising massage, videos, private rooms and “truckers welcome”.

Maybe a Sun Hydraulic (SNHY) http://tinyurl.com/6og4om or Joy Global (JOYG) lift, crane or giant lever.

DE is so plebe, so agrarian. You can’t pull a loaded cart out of a mine with a Deere.

Month to month rentals are non-existent; short term leases here carry a hefty premium.

G$,

If you are looking for short term, skip the condos & apartment buildings. They all want 1 year leases or want you to pay a premium.

Private landlords, however, often prefer month to month rentals. They figure that they have more flexibility in booting a deadbeat tenant. You can use that to your advantage. Look for 2 family houses etc.

Just did my nightly run through the GSMLS &
taking out loud to myself “screw you” while looking.I run the #s in my head & you know what makes them not work the F in taxes.As NJ taxes go up & up prices will go down.Why are we looking here I ask myself.Even if we time the market just right (I feel most here will)we still are in the sh*t.Prices have a long way to go once you put in the present & future taxes.
