A ‘recession’ might mean I will have a chance to buy some farmland.
Dude - or Madam, if you are a girl - I’m not sure about the state where you live but weird economic times have started some very interesting companies. One that I stay in touch with is “Landbox” (landbox.com).
This company offers plots of land for cash sales, no bank financing. The prices on some of these plots are absolutely amazing. Yes, a lot of it is not what you would call “rich farm land” but it’s rural and a lot of it is in really nice places where there will be a town fairly close by but you’re just looking at mountains and trees where you are.
Again, they may not be operating in your state, but do check it out. Some of their offerings are less than $1000 an acre.
