Let’s see. Rich folks move in and decide to take over. So they raise property values like a skyrocket, which is OK with the greedy and power hungry local politicians. Then the original citizens are driven out by the high property taxes and the local politicians are replaced by newbys. Kind of sounds like Vail Colorado.
I never bought this land for any reason other than a homestead. I don't worry about how much it increases in fiscal value each year, with a view to selling, and making a profit. What I do worry about is the kids paying more in taxes than I ever paid in mortgage payments.
We aren't "condo" people, or "gated community" people, we cleared this land with hand tools and an old pickup truck, never been a bulldozer on this land. I can walk around and tell you when I planted each Oak tree, when I dug a drainage ditch, when I built a shed. It is personal land, we live here. A house was built on the 6 acres just North of my land, folks moved in, in 6 months there was a for sale sign out front, they'll move on, and do it again, it's good money, I can't blame them, but it isn't my thing, and it will cost me, down the road.
My folks have lived near here since 1798, but I don't know how much longer we can afford it.
There is a right to use your land as you see fit, but your neighbors shouldn't have to pay for it.
If I was younger I'd start raising hogs, before they change the zoning.
