Default RE: WHERE DO I START?

Alot of your answers are just going to depend on what's common in your area. I live in Alabama. In this part of the state {which consistently produces more and bigger deer than other areas}, land leases for anywhere from $10.00 to $20.00 per acre. In the northern part of the state I know of land going for only $3.00 an acre, so it can change drastically troughout a relatively small area. Land is almost always leased "per acre"{around here anyway}. Land is typically leased year to year, but sometimes you can get 3,5, or even 10 year leases. I have 3 year leases on some of mine. It just depends on the landowner. I would suggest starting out with a 1 year lease, to make sure you like the place, and talking to the landowner beforehand, to see if a multiple year lease is an option should you decide to keep it. And yes, you can post leased land. I'd probably just start calling those numbers and talking to the people. They'll have an idea of what they want for it. Talk to several of them, and go with what sounds best. Try to meet with them and look over the property to make sure it's something you'll be happy with.
