The Offer to Purchase

When you decide to buy property in Wisconsin, you will be signing an Offer to Purchase form. These are standard forms, created and approved by the State of Wisconsin that all Realtors® use.

Do you read your forms before you sign them? Sometimes long forms filled with legal language get a bit overwhelming to try to understand quickly, when you are ready to make an offer.

Here are a couple of links from the State of Wisconsin website with a Vacant Land Offer to Purchase and a Residential Offer to Purchase (these forms are current at the time of this writing) you can review and read before you head out to buy. Know what is and isn't on the form, and be ready with questions when you are ready to buy.

Wisconsin Odd History

History includes tributes to the brave, the adventureous, the generous...and the odd.

Wisconsin has had it share of odd history as well, some funny like Filthy Lucre, some happy like The Man Who Vanished, some interesting like Aunt Mary Ann and some just puzzling like Legislator Obsessed with Underwear.

Read more odd stories and information about the History of Wisconsin, check out the Wisconsin Historical Society's website wisconsinhistory.org

We here at BuyWisconsinLand.com wish everyone a safe and fun fulled 4th of July weekend.

Visiting Every County in Wisconsin

The story of an adventurous Wisconsin family travelling across our state by Jim Stingl | In My Opinion Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
This might be a first, the state tourism folks tell me. A New Berlin guy and his two sons are visiting every one of Wisconsin's 72 counties this week.

That's a pace of 10 or 11 a day, with a stop at each courthouse to snap a photo as proof that they - Tim Johnson and sons Ben, 11, and Noah, 6 - were truly there.

You could argue that this is more of a quest than a vacation, and in fact Tim's wife, Jenny, and 14-year-old daughter, Emma, took that position and decided to stay home instead. For some reason, seven straight days of driving some 400 miles to far-flung courthouses didn't appeal to them.

Full Story From Adams to Wood, family will visit all 72
