What about the land surrounding those parcels ?

I'm working on the presumption that it's farm land of various types from your description . If that land suddenly develops you could find yourself "landlocked" and unable to hunt if bunny hugging yuppie types move in around all of you , it's happened in my region more often than I care to think about . Try looking at the parcels you're describing from a satellite photo and then see them through the eyes of a developer , if the land is sufficiently remote and isn't close to a larger town you're probably safe .

My home is 30 miles NNW of Louisville , Kentucky . The yuppies took over nearly all of the available "country" land within 10-20 miles of Louisville on their side , destroyed it , and are now looking across the river at my state . The two counties immediately adjacent to Louisville are already heavily populated , and "mini estates" are beginning to crop up within the easiest reach of nearly every off ramp on I-65 and I-64 . There are even a few on the two podunk highways that lead to where I live , some are now within 20 miles of my home . As small farms continue to fall to the gavel this process will only accelerate . I figure that within 15 years some developer will be making an offer on my little patch , and since the hunting will have been destroyed by then I'll probably just sell out and move further out .

My point is twofold , buy as much as you can afford for as cheap as you can , and look further than the next fence to see what the future holds .
