I wish I would have bought mine earlier in life.
I know...I love it!Agree, allot of satisfaction owning land.
We bought this piece of property about 12 years ago. We timed it just right. Within 3 years we got an offer for gas rights that tripled our initial investment. When that lease expired, the company decided they weren't going to renew it. So, a different company approached us and offered 4 times what we paid for the land in the first place just for the right to drill. we still own the land. It's been one helluva investment. Wish we had bought a lot more now. :)

Hey Jordan,What ya get NB????
Hey Jordan,
I just posted this thread this AM: http://habitat-talk.com/index.php?threads/finally-a-land-owner-just-posted-my-land.1548/
Mother-in-law gifted my wife and I about 21 acres of the 150 she owns…northwest corner of Massachusetts. Her land abuts mine, so with the 7 that came with my house I've got about 28 now. I still hunt what's left of her 150, but now I can do whatever I want on the new land. Food plots were never an option on her land.

Natty, why no food plots on her land if we can ask? Also, will the land value be low enough for no gift tax?
I saw that post! Congrats! Any chance you could purchase any additional acreage
Cool! Stay persistent. You don't wan to look back and say I wished I woulda;)Jordan, yes…there is a chance that we might be able to buy another piece of the land in the future…a 50 acre plot closest to that State Forest land in the pics.
