RE: Hunting Lease ?
In the county where my land is located, the tax assessor (a drinking buddy) told me that they do not even send people a bill if their taxon unimproved land totals less than $100. I guess that i got mine by accident since it was the only one that i have gotten since buying the land 4 years ago.

The biggest problem with leasing land to hunt is that there is no guaranteed future to it.
Orgive the landowner the ability to make annual rental rate adjustments and pitch it to him as a long-term, consistent source of income.

There can be some long-term stability/predictability if you enter into a long-term lease. Might have to pay more up front, but you reduce the risk that, afterestablishing food plots, etc, the landowner would optto lease to someone else.

If you can get a long term lease then that is great. Paper companies rarely lease long term and I don't know of anybody that has a long term lease in my area.
Bryant I know there is a lot of paper company land in the Perry area, but your lease can be gone in a blink of the eye. International Paper went from the largest private landowner in the US (a few million acres)to almost nothing within a year. St. Regis just put 10,000 acres up for sale west of Tallahassee for $2,495 an acre and Rayonier has about 17,000 acres for sale in south Bama and northwest Florida.

All I have ever heard of was yearly hunting leases around here.

but i think his statement was formed around the idea of companies that own the land.

I just now that I have heard lots of stories on here about how people worked to improve land and even cabins on it, only to have the landowner end the arrangement without much notice. If i was gonna lease, it would probably have to be multi-year. But the market is now in the landowner's favor so they can pretty much get by with short-term unless you really bargain, i would think.

I see. My experience is completely limited to workingwith a single landowner. But best of luck tothose that have to deal with a company.
