I don’t know… I know that land is a viable investment and is not going away. Plus, I know that people are being more choosy about where they spend their money. However, I have seen on places like Ebay and www.landsofamerica.com listing some incredibly mobilehard to believe online values for raw and improved land. It’s like one distressed seller after another is trying to raise enough cash to buy more land at a lower basis than what they bought in there current inventory.

If you are in the market to acquire additional land for your portfolio now is the time to be even more careful. Be certain the property has good legal access, water and is something you can enjoy while the market recovers. Let me know if you think we’ve hit bottom.

Just a quick note to let you know we’re updating our website at www.myfrontierproperties.com. The user interface is cleaner and we will have additional properties listed.

I am getting sick and tired of reading about the doom and gloom of energy prices, the recession, Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac, foreclosures, and the real estate debacle.  I recently read an article that I think put things into perspective.  Take a deep breath and click here–

Now of course more bad news has come out, but I think we need to get some perspective and take advantage of the fear in the marketplace and start dipping our feet in to the waters.  There will be some more short term downward pressure on pricing, but since no one can predict the bottom and everyone seems scared it seems like a logical time to me to start buying raw land for the long term.

What if you could acquire a free and clear lot with all utilities in a gated community with three lakes, two golf courses and gorgeous serene surroundings? Well, I think most people would be interested… Now the catch– it’s located in DuBois, PA 80 miles from Pittsburgh and an hour from Penn State. Check out the video below of this community.

Now what if I told you this property was only $8300 financed at $80 per month? Fees were only $680 per year and taxes were only $80 per year? I think most people would want a future retirement, summer home, winter home, etc. for this amount of money right? Well, the demand for my lots have been so weak I can’t figure it out. Please help me figure out a way to sell this property… Should the price be lower?

Thanks for your help…
