Local land auction details
We went to a local land
auction today.
It seems like there was a
healthy crowd, but in reality there were just 5 or 6 actually bidding.
The only structure was a barn
that's ready to be torn down. All three tracts sold within an hour for
around 1000 dollars per acre. Rumor has it that all three buyers were
people who just wanted the hunting access, which is sometimes ripe with
white tailed deer and wild turkeys.

Land around us goes for $10000 an acre, around London, Ontario. Rare are small acreages and most farm houses and barns are pulled down and planted in corn.
