Default RE: borrowing money to buy land

Yep, that part of Kansas sounds like heaven in terms of land prices. In my part of Illinois, wooded hilly land went for $350 an acre 25 yeas ago, often with few takers. The price hadsince increasedfour or fivefold. good farmland is now up around 3000 to 3500 an acre. Its even worse in some of the really hot deer hunting areas. Over around Pikecounty and points north, I believe that tracts of mostly woods are way over $3000 an acre. My motto is buy your own land even if you have to sellall your "toys" to do so.
