    84 Quarters and Counting!

    Another neighbor sells over the Easter
    Weekend. So that puts the Area sales at
    84 Quarters and counting!
    Yes he was thinking for a long while
    about it. Yes his machinery was
    finished. Yes his house needed major
    repairs. Yes it was time. Oh yea he is
    58.
    I have 24 hours to buy it all. No
    negotiating for the three I want just
    one day to buy all. Yard included. Like
    I need another yard.
    Oh well farming is fun when you just sit
    back and say NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    This sale could be a BC. Pike is in but
    the BC guy is the prefered buyer.

      Sask: Don't you think yards with good access and utilities are a good investment. If the house isn't so good demolish it. This fellow sure isn't giving you much time to think about it.

          Listed on Thursday and their was a offer
          put in Good friday. No one local. We
          were told about it today and its a done
          deal on Wednesday.
          Oh well I would have had a really nice
          block.
          Im approved for over what he is asking
          but deep down my gut is telling me on
          this deal to wait. He wont give me the
          three that I want, it has to be all or
          nothing. The 8 would all go to three
          different guys if he would have just let
          it divide up.
          The yard is on a highway but nothing
          special.

                      Should have bought it all and sold off the
                      unwanted pieces.

                              Geez, I don't think, In fact I KNOW, that
                              in my 20 years of farming, there has not
                              been anything near 84 quarters for sale in
                              my area. I don't even think half of that.
                              Maybe a quarter of 84! In 20 years.
                              Anyways, glad you made a decision you seem
                              happy with. Hope the new neighbors are
                              good ones for you. Have you met the bc
                              guys yet?

                                      The guy from Gerald is planting 46,000 acres this
                                      spring. Good on him but I wouldn't want it. I kinda
                                      like being the dude responsible for everything.
                                      From planting through to harvest and then the
                                      marketing as well.

                                      I am impressed by some operations huge multiple
                                      unit machinery lineup. But envious I am not.
