Land in Tennessee

HappyHarry said: "That's my latest investment. My rationale: retirees are sick of Florida and are going to be relocating to Tennessee, a beautiful state with low taxes and no hurricanes."

Heather said: "Sounds like an intersting thing to get involved in. You don't have to worry too much about land going down in value. Sort of off topic, but I was reading somewhere that the median home price in California is 500,000+.. That builds a mansion almost anywhere else in the world!"

AlfredSokol said: "I went water-skiing in Lake Tansi in 2003. What a beautiful place!"

IntelligentInvestor said: "Do you live in Tennessee?? For that matter, do you even need to be in Tennessee to buy land in Tennessee??"

HappyHarry said: "Nope. I'm in Ohio for now. There's no problem with buying and selling land in any state. I have a very good contact down there to handle the leg work."

Too remote for us, but as you said, no problem buying no matter where you're living now. One can even buy foreign real estate without leaving home, although it's a good idea to really see what you're bidding on. I have an acre+ on the Atlantic, waterfront, with a mile long, private, sandy beach. And the price was right because the beachfront is in Nova Scotia."
