RE: Illinois lease prices getting out of hand
I think that a lot of times, the really high lease prices are because the property is handled by a lease company that gives the land owner a modest fee, then turns around and marks it up. But then again, considering the prices that some people seem willing to pay, you can't really blame landowners for playing ball. Hell, i'm not interested in leasing my land at this point, but at 100 per acre I wouldn't be able to sign the contract fast enough.
