"When Is The Right Time To Buy Land?"
In 1871, my great-great-great grandfather left Alabama after losing his wife and fighting in the Confederate Army where he was wounded and a prisoner of war to settle the plains of Texas. He soon remarried and in 1879 purchased a small tract of land in Mills County for $8.50 per acre. Leaving not a penny to his name, he and his new wife set out to build a homestead, working hard to clear the land and raising crops. My great-great-great grandfather had a dream of becoming a land owner and wanted to provide a future for his growing family. He wasn't looking at long term investments or profit and loss sheets or even estate taxes. He knew that owning land meant a whole lot more. It was an opportunity to provide security for his family along with a source of food and income. It was how people survived. Times have changed. There is a convenience store or grocery store around every corner. It is no longer a necessity to own land but an investment. Individuals now look at the value of land as the source of income opposed to the resources of the land. With more and more people investing money in land the value continues to increase. Looking back over the years the value of land rarely fluctuates. Land is limited and always in demand. My great-great-great grandparent's land is now worth $3,000 per acre, though the hardships that were endured and the memories that were made are priceless. You ask, "When is the right time to buy land?" Whether it be 1879 or 2010 history has proven buying land is always a good investment whatever the reason may be.
