About this episode

The episode discusses the evolution of recreational hunting land as an investment and the factors influencing land buyer demand.

Welcome to the land podcast, a platform for people looking to educate themselves in the world of land ownership, land investing, staying up to date with current land trends in the Midwest, and hearing from industry experts and professionals. On today's episode, we are back in the studio talking with Buck Land Funding. We discuss: Recreational hunting land has evolved into a legitimate and growing asset class. Interest rates and the broader economy heavily influence land buyer demand. Many buyers upgrade farms every few years as stepping stones to larger tracts. Pre-approval dramatically improves a buyer’s ability to secure competitive land deals. Consumer debt like truck payments can drastically reduce land buying power. Recreational land values have steadily risen alongside inflation long-term. CRP conversions can turn lower-quality farmland into strong wildlife habitat. COVID accelerated demand as people sought outdoor recreation and privacy. Many land purchases are emotional decisions tied to family memories. And so much more!
