I agree with Matthew, farmland isn't cheap, I would guess at least $3,000 per acre. Then you have to add in the property value and also the novelty of the "Field of Dreams".

I was wrong, avg price of acre of farmland in Iowa is 3500-4000 which is shocking considering in North Dakota it is going for 300-500 an acre and less in some cases.

Be thankful you are not in Vancouver, where the average 3 bedroom bungalow house on an average lot is over 800K..... put the same house in West Vancouver and its 1.5 mill.

Ive already resolved i will never own real estate here!

I have a very nice 1 acre lot for sale in Maine for $19,900 if any high roller should care to branch out into the real estate market. Plenty of hardwood as well as some pine, nice seasonal brook running through the property.

Default Authentication?

How do we know that the land hasn't been trimmed, recolored or otherwise altered? Does PSA make a slab this size?

If the land in North Dakota is anything like the land in South Dakota I can see why it's so cheap.
