The National Land Podcast

What you need to know about leasing land!

Land values are high. Actually, all real estate values are the highest we have ever seen. This presents challenges for those seeking to acquire land for sale, whether for agriculture or recreation. This is especially true for those who do not have the upfront cash to acquire it. As we have discussed on this podcast, land loans are difficult to obtain. In this environment, leasing has become more and more important. Ryan Schroeter of Nebraska and Aaron Sutton of North Carolina have recognized this need. Together, they have decided to spearhead the leasing department for National Land Realty. Today, we are discussing how to lease your land, how to find land for lease, what to look for, and things to avoid with land leases. These are two of the most knowledgeable land real estate agents in the country and well worth listening to.
