Shopping for Property In Winter

Last week we ran a post in our Wisconsin Land, our investing in property blog, about why looking at vacant land and large acreage property during winter can be beneficial for you as Buyer. This advice applies when buying a property for recreational use as well, because the more information you have, the happier you will be with your land purchase.

Check out this post Buying Property In Winter and then check out BuyWisconsinLand.com for the latest listings. And when you come out to see property, don't forget your boots!

Land Conservation Funding Freeze

Reported by Kristen Elicerio wkbt.com
LA CROSSE, Wis. - Funding for local land conservation is in jeopardy after the Wisconsin DNR freezes all state Stewardship Fund grants. It's part of Governor Scott Walker's goal to balance the state budget.
