I want to buy land to possibly build a house, but I would like to know how much a few acres in Ohio would be.
Ok, I live in Hamilton County and I would like to purchase more land in the neighborhood that I already live in. I live in a village surrounded by woods and I was hoping that I can buy some of that land.

I want to purchase a home in Texas that is being sold by the owner rather than a realtor. I have checked into land value and property values around here. The house is actually at a very good price, and had a good inspection. How do I go about purchasing a home like this? Do I just contact a bank and see if they can finance it for me, or what? Thank you!!

This Farmhouse Can Be Yours for $1
One Catch: The Buyer Will Have to Pay to Have It Moved

When Loudoun Country Day School moves this summer, it will leave behind this 1880s farmhouse. The new owner plans to build an assisted-living facility on the property and is offering the farmhouse for a dollar to anyone who can pay to have it moved elsewhere.

Want an amazing deal? How about a sprawling, two-story farmhouse in Leesburg for $1?

The catch: The land underneath is not for sale, and the buyer will have to pay to have the house carted away.

Husband and I recently went to look at a “for sale by owner” home in rural South Dakota. Prices are dirt-cheap, houses are typically OLD…and we’re well aware of what the typical price range/age should be.

So our suspicions went up when the home owner first claimed the house was “built in 1975″ (this ‘fact’ is plastered all over every ad she’s running for the house; it’s evident to even a casual observer the house is quite a bit older)….and THEN she tried telling us the house/property were recently appraised for $220,000 (!!!) but she was selling it for a mere $45,000 to make a quick sale. o_O

Sooo, occasionally I pride myself on not being a gullible idiot- I went to the county assessor’s office & got public records on the house. Turns out the house was built in 1906 (renovated plumbing & wiring in 1974) and the house’s value was assessed 4 years ago at $8720. For the house AND LAND (only 3 acres).

She paid $20,000 for the house in 2007….has made NO improvements to the property & has actually had *renters* occupying it the whole time, yet she’s trying to sell for a $25,000 dollar PROFIT in an area where home/land values have increased only a fraction of a percent.

Now, I know it’s not illegal to overprice a house BUT is it illegal to lie about the age & value of the house??? I know people who would NOT have bothered to go to the courthouse & do the research…some folks would have believed the lady’s lies & gotten ripped off. And ended up with a century-old money pit to boot.

I guess I’d like to make sure this lady can’t scam anybody else like she ALMOST scammed us. The size & price of this house makes it appealing to first-time buyers and younger people…..sooner or later she WILL find herself a fool who doesn’t know better. Can we do anything to make sure she can’t take advantage of the next person to come along???

I can’t go through a bank for financing. My parents will be giving me the $ for the house but I still can’t use a bank. I really like one house, but no contact has been made with the owner. If it doesn’t work out with this house.. how else will I know who is more likely to do a land contract?

Signs in yards like “for sale by owner”, is that a slight indication?

We found a house in the country that we were planning to buy. There is a field next to it and I called to find out what is planted there and if they had plans for sale since we didn’t want to buy a house that was going to be next to a garbage dump a year from now.

So I spoke with this field owner. She said she had tried to buy our house a year or two ago. She thought it was too much money and warned me of some problems, like a flooding basement. She said they own 13 acres next door, and that they are planning to put a horse farm there in a year or two. She states that the driveway to our house is hers, and she “has” to share it with us. She also states that she hopes to buy up the land behind us which was supposed to be an easement for the phone company. In other words, this secluded house we thought we found now seems dominated by this field owner.

The big problem is that my husband had his heart set on a 4 wheeler. I’m wondering how much his 4 wheeler would conflict with her horse farm. He will be very unhappy to have some neighbor dictating his activities as we are maxing out financially to buy this house. I was thinking of calling her back and talking to her about the 4 wheeler situation. Is this a reasonable thing to do?
