All these land deals with little down but agreement for sale!

Missed that, thx. Guess that's why you
have agreements with time limits. No money
in the agreed upon time, no problem.

That sounds like it could be a pretty rich deal for the Landlord with good prices and yeilds. 25% without any input expense. And 25% of crop insurance, does the landlord pay any of the premiums for that luxury?
Explain your last comment, I've never heard that one before.

Let them(tenants) knock themselves out. Like so many on here have said, be patient and be prepared because it will sort itself out. I don't like working for nothing and sounds like some might. At what point or the least amount of money "net" per acre would someone want to make to say it was worth their while--all expenses in. If all their going to do is net a little over expenses and wear out machinery and have even less time for important things, what's the point?

To each their own....

Since the beginning of time on every deal of any
sort, especially land. Someone has said that's to
much! Your F'n crazy to pay that! It's only worth
$X

This may be the top, or just another step on the
ladder. If you think it's too much don't buy, if you
think it's a good deal and you can handle it buy.

Looking back on my short farming career, I regret
not buying, more than I regret buying. Of course
it's only the deals that you make, that will take you
down.

As for land deals with no closing date and nominal
deposit. Why?
