i've seen several times were people were asking about the value added from digging a lake on your property.well i have a friend who owns 200 acres of property and he dug a pond a little over 5 acres,he also cut some roads threw the woods,built a pavillion and in general just keeps the grass cut.this place does show very well,anyway he told me yesterday evening he had a group(company)call him last friday and wanted to know if he would sale the place to them so there company could have a retreat area,so he agreeded.today they have neg. to pay 750,000.00 for this place,he tells me he paid 196,000.00 for it 3 yrs ago and spent a little over 100,000.00 fixing the place up.so back to early post i know one person who will tell you to add a lake,plant some grass and take care of it and you will be amazed at what somebody will pay you for it.he tells me he thought he would get maybe 500,000.00 for it a year from now,but like he said throw a number ou there you never know what will happen.
