Popular Post Airehead Posted August 8, 2017 Popular Post Share #1 Posted August 8, 2017 We put an offer in on a farmette last night. It is noncontingent because there is another offer. We could own two houses soon. That will suck. I'm feeling all over the place about this. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirwickWithCheese Posted August 8, 2017 Share #2 Posted August 8, 2017 Will you need me to come live in one to protect your investment? The dogs and I should have the new farm until you adjust to such a big change in life. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogs can't go to the farm until we get the fencing up at the house and the mesh put on the horse fencing in the paddocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airehead Posted August 8, 2017 Author Share #10 Posted August 8, 2017 Don't get too excited. They may not accept our offer. Some city slicker may come in and go over the list price--- because city slickers don't know how cheap land is in western NY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, Cheese gets the new farm until the dogs are mentally ready to go, then I will watch the old homestead, keeping it free from crackheads and Trump supporters until you can find a buyer that will care for it as you have. Where will you live in the meantime? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffJim Posted August 8, 2017 Share #13 Posted August 8, 2017 Most farmettes of this size need a full time customs broker to help them with customs issues. I just happen to know a good one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffJim Posted August 8, 2017 Share #18 Posted August 8, 2017 You do know those clouds and blue skies are fake, just used to get you to make a bigger offer on the purchase. Everyone knows Western NY is never that pretty. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrapr ★ Posted August 8, 2017 Share #21 Posted August 8, 2017 Cool joint. Are you 2nd in line on your offer? Or are they evaluating both offers at the same time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital_photog ★ Posted August 8, 2017 Share #22 Posted August 8, 2017 A horse barn? Will you be getting a horse.... Oh, better get 2 so it doesn't get lonely.... as a playmate for the Airedales? A real farmette always has a horse or 3. Also, you will need a John Deere tractor for your farm. Maybe a couple chickens and a cow. Do you realize how much work and expense this could be? Better contact @sheep_herder about a few sheep to mow the lawn. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know some locals talk about 'outsiders' coming in and buying places for 'exorbitant' prices that will not allow them to make a profit in the future. What many folks here, do not consider, is that those buyers probably sold their places for 2, 3, or 4 times the price that they are paying in Montana. If you like it, can afford it now and into the future, go for it. We never know how long we are going to be around, so we should strive to enjoy our time on earth. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
