Buying Rural: 10 Expensive Mistakes, and How to Avoid Them
It could save you from making one or more of these 10 expensive mistakes that rural property buyers make.
The Dream
The dream of leaving the city for a life in the country is a powerful one. Your desire for space, privacy and freedom, a slower pace, the fresh air, and a place to truly call your own has you plotting for your escape to a better place.
But the path from city life to country life is littered with traps that catch even intelligent, well-prepared people off guard. I’ve seen the same costly mistakes made over and over again by smart people who simply didn’t know what they didn’t know, and some of those mistakes can cost heaps of dollars, years of heartache, or even the dream itself.
I know, because I made the move from the city myself years ago, and these days, as a farmer and rural buyer’s agent in country Australia, I get to help other families avoid the mistakes I made, and the ones I’ve watched catch others off guard ever since. Some of those mistakes are technical and legal. Some are financial. And some are deeply human.
I’ve written them down in this free and frank guide, along with sure ways to avoid them, because I genuinely want your own Great Escape to succeed.
