4 Reasons Why You Should Buy a Ranch in 2021

February 25, 2021 by chorton Leave a Comment

While some individuals might see that on average ranches receive anywhere from 3-20% return on investment every year and decide they should purchase their own land, others need more convincing. The estimated return on ranch investments are exceptional, but there are also several other reasons why you should buy a ranch in 2021. The four most important reasons, besides the yearly return on investment, that you should buy a ranch include appreciation, tax exemptions, freedom to develop, and an increased quality of life. These reasons are discussed and explored in further detail below!

Appreciating Real Estate

Ranch real estate properties are appreciating at staggering numbers. That is a fact, and the recent coronavirus pandemic is causing these numbers to increase even more. These days, more and more individuals are realizing that they would like to get away from the crowded cities and crammed apartments they currently live in. With this rural migration in mind, more and more people are looking to purchase a ranch. Therefore, if you were able to purchase a ranch this year, you could expect for the property’s value to increase over the next few years.

Tax Exemptions

In addition to being a great investment because of their appreciation estimate, ranch properties are also good investments because of the various tax exemptions you may qualify for by owning one. Most land that is used for farming or that is supporting livestock is exempt from taxes. While this may not seem like a serious benefit, the savings from these exemptions can number in the thousands. Therefore, if you are looking for land for sale, you should set your eyes on a ranch or two.

Development Freedom

Another benefit of owning a ranch is the ability to develop your land freely. Most ranch land is unrestricted and can be developed at the owner’s discretion. To make sure this is the case, you can ask your real estate agent about the deed restrictions, property restrictions, and other restrictions the ranch land you are looking at might be restricted by. Once you find out that your land is not overly restricted, you can start to envision development projects such as a horse stables, hunting blinds, or pretty much anything else you can think of.

Increased Quality of Life

Overall, all of these other benefits also lead to the greatest benefit of them all: increased quality of life. Most land buyers cite that their decision to purchase a ranch was pivotal in their search for a better life. When you buy a ranch, you get to see the benefits of the property first hand everyday. These benefits only become more reliant on your own motivations if you choose to work the ranch yourself. Owning and operating a ranch is not only a good way to see what you are made of, but also the perfect way to simplify your everyday life. You don’t just live on the ranch, you work there and get to reap the benefits of such a lifestyle.

Ranch Life

Living on a ranch is certainly not for everyone, but if you have recently been thinking about getting away from the busy city or are simply looking to change your lifestyle, ranching might be for you. Not everyone who owns a ranch, operates their ranch by farming or raising livestock. Some individuals use their ranch as a hunting camp or other type of recreation center to bring in additional profits. The benefits listed above only scratch the surface of the various benefits a ranch can provide. If you are interested you should call up your real estate agent today.
