Hunting Land For Sale in Texas – What Makes Land Good Hunting Property

Hunting Land For Sale in Texas What Makes Land Good Hunting Property

If you are a first timer at purchasing hunting land in Texas, or just land in general, there is one thing you may overlook that is important. We will start with that. I know it sounds obvious but price is very vital to everyone and no matter what your budget is, you should not be any different. What affects the price? If the hunting land is "ready" to hunt, of course it is going to cost more per acre. But if it's not, think of the work you must put in to get it ready to hunt. Like bulldozer work if you can't ride a four wheeler on it. This will cost thousands of dollars. For a 40 acre tract of land, if you have to hire a dozer, it could cost you between $55 and $155 hourly. So, even if you pay a lot less per acre, you will have to put some money into it to get the land good for hunting.

We have already established that it will cost you for dozer work. A general rule of thumb on 40 acres with no stumps to grub will cost around $6,000.00 just for a good boundary clearing. A 40 acre land tract is a quarter mile long for each line, so you know that will take a little bit to clear. Beyond that, we need to look at whether there is good border fencing, well established deer and turkey plots, creek and river frontage, gates, deer stands, what kind of deer stands if the property has some, timber value in today's market and the potential 10 to 20 year growth projection. You can use a quality timber management company, such as Jeff Taylor Forestry Services Inc. to give you some idea on timber value. I have twenty years practice buying and selling timber and still miss values sometime. The value of things, such as river frontage or creek frontage is really in your eyes as the buyer. You know the saying, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder". If you are buying it, how important is it to you? It is what it is worth to you. Water frontage on good hunting land for sale in Texas is going to be more expensive, but the value is greater. Deer like water, and it makes the property prettier, especially if cleared around it.

Consider these land plus items (boundary clearing, creek front, river front) when you are buying good well maintained hunting land for sale in Texas. You will feel better about what you pay for if the property contains these land plus items and this will help you negotiate a better price when you get ready to close your loan.
