Wow! I wouldn't buy that property even if it was a bargain price for 2 reasons. #1. Snakes, spiders and scorpions. #2. I would hate to be mistaken for the 'people' that inhabited the place before me. No property is worth my life. Although, it does come with a nice neighbor and a cranky donkey.
Maybe that's why they want so much for it! I mean, who wouldn't want to live next to Pearl and Buddy???
The idiot just figured out yesterday that he's missing 10 sheep! He rode around asking people in the area if anyone has seen them!!A weird happening...10 of the 12 ewes got out, ran down the road on to the place at the very end of our road! Their entrance is through a relatives place on the next road. They escaped, will probably be eaten by coyotes! Two ewes and the ram are left with the two cows. I don't hold much hope for the escapees, they are loud and lost, but out of the bad place!!
They escaped 9 days ago! I hope he doesn't replace them with more animals!!
Yummmm, Lambchops. OOPS.The idiot just figured out yesterday that he's missing 10 sheep! He rode around asking people in the area if anyone has seen them!!
Lamb chops for coyotes!!
When I was coming home the husband was at his mailbox so I stopped to say hi (that's code for being nosy)!! He said he finally got his wife to start coming out of the house, and then she got chiggers!
She told him if he wanted to continue to live there he better have her some pavement!! So today the concrete trucks are there, took them all last week to get the ground ready!I work on the farm & have not had a red bug in years. Seem they forgot to google.So the city neighbors to my north (through the woods) are having concrete poured around their entire house, 40 ft wide!!!
I guess, if mama donkey is close enough you already know that the song "Sweetly sings the donkey at the break of day" is true.People bought the 50 acres behind me. Sold 20 to another neighbor. The 30 acres is long, entrance on another road. The previous owners were great neighbors for 33 years, mom and dad died and the sons sold it! Nice couple about 40ish, from the city. He does land clearing and needed a place out this way for his equipment, building an equipment barn near the entrance. They want to build a house about 400+ feet behind us! Will not build for a few years because of wood prices he said! We don't have any houses that we can see, will be a big change. The wife didn't seem too happy, didn't like the fact that there are wild animals in the country. Curious to see what unfolds. They bought mama donkey with the land, had to let them know that they have to provide food and water for her. Since there is no well on the back part of the property they will be paying me to keep her watered. Said they will get her some hay!! Should be interesting.......
I read this after I posted my post about the donkey.I started this thread about the people who bought the 50 acres behind us. The front of the long narrow property is on another road. They do dirt work and built a large building up front to house their equipment. They are city folk, and made a lot of costly mistakes. They put the building where a large stock tank had been filled in, even though another neighbor told them about it. The slab has cracked and sunk. They also forgot to put the plumbing in for the office area! Luckily they have put off building a house behind us for now! We also are getting new neighbors to our north, our property lines meet in the woods behind my house! On my way out this morning I stopped at the neighbors on the other side of them. The environmental officer was there, I know him and that neighbor so I stopped. The new neighbors called them in because they have some non running trucks in their front field, haha, totally legal. The new neighbor said he doesn't want his dogs getting into any leaking fluids from the trucks. They got the animal containment law explained to them!! The newbies also asked the environmental officer what can be done about the smell and noise from the horses across the road
She's long gone, happy on a ranch in Oklahoma!
I just put one drop of Oil of Citronella on each sock!
I think real estate is just crazy and ridiculous everywhere. I got a deal because a neighbor was going to sue HUD because it was vacant for so long, and HUD needed to get rid of the property ASAP. I was talking to a neighbor who didn't realize how little I had paid for my property, now valued at about 30 times more than what I paid. Everyone tells me I stole this property. Nope. It was all done legally. I was in the right place at the right time.
