Price per acre

[Fishon]

I have a chance to lease a 400 acre farm and i was wondering what is a fair price per acre. Thanks

[turks]

Where?-

[MACHINIST]

I lease 2 places in Oswego county and they range for 250 for 75 acres(1/2 crops,1/2 woods) and 800 for 95 acres(1/3 overgrown grass fields,2/3 woods small swamp.For 400 I would find a few friends and go in on it.Start at 1000 and go up from there.I would also try and get a price from them first.

If it is really good deer hunting land, $3000 would be a great price, $4000 would still be fair.

Deer hunting is most all of Oswego County certainly isnt "real good". Its okay but not great by any means. Not a whole lot of doe permits available either. Some of the farmers around me here in Oswego County are leasing at 500 for every 100 acres and 500 being a minimum even if its 40 acres.

while we are on price per acre. Is 2800 yr for 180 acres good for broome county ? this is our first year and time doing it. So far killwes a very big 7 pt with bow, and a 4 and 6 with gun. There are 7 of us in on it so its like 400 each

6k is hard hunting, is that the mdu

$6 an acre is usually fair.. with bigger pieces like 400 acres or more you might want to get some friends to share the lease with to cut down the cost. fair is also what you and the land owner can agree on.. dickering is ok.

Depends on if its northern or southern zone. There are more ag fields and better hunting in the western (southern zone) part of oswego county. Dont get me wrong there is plenty of good hunting in the northern zone portion of it as well. It's more big woods hunting than anything though. Don't forget you'll most likely need to purchase insurance if you plan on having more than yourself there.

My recommendation.....go to the county clerks office and see what the taxes are on the parcel,it's public record. Use that in your negoaiting but don't tell him or her you know what they are. A lot of things go into negotiating a fair price just use that is one of your tools
