Sorry I snooped on sama.....$172,200 assessment.

If someone gave me the same 4.15x assessment I’d really think about phoning ritchies. Be $1.1 million on our good stuff.

So what's a 313000 assessed quarter worth in our area?

Did a little asking. That was for 3 quarters. 1 of cropland and 2 of native pasture.

For us older guys it's something to think about..
Non farming full time kids will probably sell it anyway.
No right or wrong.
Each in their own situation..
No rules in this game.

If you gotta ask you can’t afford it....

That’s gotta be some nice dirt.

Crosses my mind also with no children that farm and getting older.
Its just that you try so hard all these years trying to pick up land it would be really hard turning around and sell it.

That's nothing, you would be hard pressed to find a quarter cheap enough to be 20X assessment here!


Assessment system must be different here, no one talks about it as a measure of real estate value. Does give an indication of soil classification but location and view is more important than farming qualities in valuation anyhow. My highest assessed land is 45,000 a quarter and that's good land.

There is nothing wrong with setting the children, grandchildren or nephews/nieces up as farm landlords.
