My property consists of 12 acres of which about 8 are flat tillable and the rest for my house and 2 shop buildings and a strip ajoining woods that is considered wetland. A local farmer takes the hay off the field usually twice a season. Taxes are the biggest sticking point with me at almost $4,000 a year and showing no signs of letting up.

If they take their time to come down and argue the point, there's certainly value beyond market value to them. Given that I don't feel compelled to sell, I'm as far ahead to just show them the door.
