W. Robinson ,
It's not as much a factor as not being able to afford it, as not being able to justify the purchase with the new information that just surfaced. I'd gladly spend that same money on a new pond to a piece of property that will add to the value of the land. That wasn't the case with this one.
Yeah, I really wish this would have worked out and that I had this lake, but given time, I'll find the right property for me.

Since you probably know the area, I'd rather spend $200k on a piece of property with a decent lake in Washington county than $160 for one in Leon County. For what it was, $95k was stretching the value for this property being in Leon County.
Any additional money put into repairing the dam would have added minimal value to the property, and most likely a loss should the property be sold within 10 years or so.
