Hi All! Good morning ladies and gentlemen! Waiting on a call back regarding an application I have in for a USDA loan to purchase some property that I'm drooling over!
May I ask... please say a prayer to the universe for me or whomever you believe in! I've been trying to get a place like this for years that my kids and I can get back to a way of life I was brought up with. Unplugged.
There's a fully furnished trailer on the property that's in liveable condition (even had a deviled egg tray in the cabinet!). If I can land this, I'd like to have a small home built with a Mennonite barn as they are all over the area I'm looking to be in. The kicker- ready?? Close to 20 acres of UNTOUCHED hard wood property. It's never been farmed, logged, fracked or touched at all! When I toured it, it was everything I've ever wanted! There was even a GIANT raspberry patch someone had definitely planted a long time ago, almost a quarter acre of black raspberry, raspberry, elderberry and mint. (Guessing it was to keep deer away from the berries?) Then to my absolute delight- noticed a strange big circular structure built in the ditch- realtor had no idea...I did! It is a fish catch- was curious if salmon run but did some research of the area and it's trout! A creek runs through the property and they must spawn in this little section where there's a waterfall when full.
Being a single Mom, and working full time- I've struggled for years for two things- to put my kids through college or trade school, and a little piece of land to be able to leave them when it's my time to return to the earth. Now that college is around the corner for my daughter, and I'm two years away from 40- it's time to start getting some equity!
....and it's never been metal detected πππ....or treasure hunted....or relic...or anything!! The history of this area is rich and I did some digging to who lived there all the way to the original plot before it was subdivided.
With that said, you all have been so supportive and I know this will be a request well received!βπͺπ€
Thinking of you all and wishing everyone the best finds!! Fingers crossed......πππ
