Selling Hunting Land

If you have wooded land or acreage to sell, this is the time of year to have it on the market in Wisconsin.

Why? Because the fall means hunting season and lots of folks head for the woods to bag that big tom or 30 point buck. It also means they are driving around looking at available land they can call their own to hunt on.

We at BuyWisconsinLand.com know how to handle this sales process, strategically marketing properties to ensure greater exposure to buyers looking for hunting property in Wisconsin.

Answers to Legal Questions

A Real Estate Agent is a great resource to answer your real estate questions such as: what properties are for sale? How is this property zoned and what are the taxes? Can I build on this land? What are average prices of land in this area?

But legal questions about property and purchasing land cannot be answered by a Realtor®. For that you need a lawyer.

This page from the State Bar of Wisconsin has some general questions with information that you should know whether you are buying or selling a property. Remember, for legal questions concering a specific property or purchase, you need to consult your own attorney. Buying/Selling Residential Real Estate: Answering Your Legal Questions

Buy Low and Sell High

Yes this is the world's most obvious statement to an investor.

But the trick is knowing what is "low" and what is "high".

We liked this article by Paul Breden at Bigger Pockets. He describes an excellent strategy for knowing prices in the real estate market. At BuyWisconsinLand.com we too, want to see our customers buy low and sell high, so we use the latest technology to make sure we know where our local real estate market is, and can help you have a smooth and profitable real estate transaction.
OK - so you already know that "Buy low - sell high" is a workable strategy. How, then, do you identify the property with the lowest potential purchase price?

There are two sources of pricing information. Both are available to the general public, and both may be available online. The first is current asking prices for the type property you are seeking. The second is accurate recent sale prices that other sellers have accepted. The difference between the two can be significant.
