Hey all,
What methods do you use for prospecting new rental farming ground? I have run ads on local online classified sites, in the local paper and in the regional farm paper. In 3 years of looking I have only gotten a handful of responses from this ad, most responses from people with 1-2 acres of marginal ground far away who think they should be able to get the same per acre rental as a 100 acre cleared and tiled farm.
The land market around here is tight with not much ever coming up for rental or sale, but I figure I should have gotten more response by now. Do I need to go door to door? Make up mailbox flyers? What methods do you use?
