Land in Cloverdale,IN

[Jubybean]

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Indiana

Does anyone know the going price for land in Cloverdale? My father-in-law,now deceased, has about 13 acres of land that will need to be sold. There is a house on it,plus some barns,and a lot of wooded land. I was just wondering if anyone else knew what the going price is down there?

Thanks,

pick a large real estate firm who has decent search tools and use whats currently on this land and search on it using the county name of the county it is in as if you were a buyer looking so you can look for comparable property , if you have to add in to the search the adjacent counties do that too to widen the search area , you ought to be able to get a idea searching that way to see what other comparable property is selling for.

Do you mean someone like Century 21? I think that they want to try and sell the land themselves. I don't know if they should do it that way. I will try Century 21 first and see what I can find out.

Thanks,

Use a realtor's website search tools if you don't want to contact the company directly.

Thanks. I tried Century 21 and I found some places in Cloverdale that were close to where my father-in-law's property is. His might go for a little more than what others down there are going for. I saw one house that is on 2.11 acres going for 139,900 and my husband's father has a little over 13 acres, with a house and several sheds on the property. It almost looks like a small farm.

Thanks for the advice.

I already know that but thanks anyway. The only problem for me is that I don't live down there and I am just trying to find out if anyone knows the value of land down there. Last I knew, they wanted to try and sell the house themselves.

I got some help but not much but thanks anyway. Some help is better than no help at all,right?

Thanks Gail. That is about the best advice that I have received so far. The other advices were good also but this gives me more to look at. Thanks.
