As a country we have to get away from all these idiots pushing zoning laws or HOA's and deed restrictions. If land is classified as unrestricted then it should be unrestricted. No HOA's, zoning laws or deed restrictions. And, if you have no children, or your children have aged out or graduated out of public schools you should not be forced to pay school taxes either. It is not my responsibility to pay for your children's education nor should you have to pay for mine.

I want a place I can live in my RV on my own land. I don't like a house b/c it's a lot to clean, heat/cool, insure, keep up and taxes. Houses are a scam if you're single. I can live well in 500 sq. ft. Most people have houses that are way more than they need and cost a ton of money to keep up.

HOA, property taxes, restrictions = not as free we thought we were..

Agreed. With property taxes they go up every 5 years. The government is the landlord and the owners are the tenants who really don't own the property.

One of the uses in unrestricted that wasn’t mentioned is Heavy Industrial. Not only are people swarming to central Texas, so are developers.

Thats is exactly what I would do with 20 plus acres. #motocross #track #triples #doubles Better than another golf ⛳️ course.

Good advice for those who are new to purchasing real property. The blessings and the curses. You already covered this and many areas with potential don’t convey mineral rights which I stay away from those properties. With regards to finding out what encumbrances exist. I believe that’s the value of title insurance!

That was truly insightful. I always suspected there was a catch to those land advertisements with low prices.

Excellent video. Thanks This video made me a subscriber to your channel.

6:00 so the land Has to produce revenue, very interesting. I have an offer for a fantastic role in San Antonio; in about the middle of my life I finally woke up enough to want to buy my own land. I was going to do it here in North Carolina, but I like Texas just the same, but it seems like it’s even more difficult there.

Thanks for the advice 🙏

I'm glad I found this video. I am from the upper Midwest wanting to relocate to a warmer and dryer climate in the next 2-3 years. I learned a lot from your video. Looking at online RE ads in Texas, it looks like wells are not always installed, even on developed properties. Are there parts of Texas where you just have to drill too deep to make wells an option? If you so, can you give me some idea of what parts of the state to avoid if I am set on having a private well? Also, on properties that do already have a private well, is there a prevalence of those wells going dry? Subscribed :)

Dang with that many acres I would build a ranch style garage/giant barn and a cricular round about driveway with 6-7fields behind the house the house in question needs porchs so my southern butt can sit down 😂

I appreciate your channel it's very informative. I am wondering, assuming there are no restrictions whatsoever, and there are 2 separate portions of the land (one AG exempt and the other a Homestead. If I build a mother in law suite home on the AG exempt portion of the land, would that significantly increase my taxes on that AG exempt land? Similarly if I add more structures to that AG land how does that increase taxes? Thank you!

In a scenario where you own two separate pieces of land, one that is exempt as farm (AG) land and the other is residential land (Homestead), building your mother-in-law's house on the AG-exempt piece of land can impact your property taxes, depending on the law. property taxes applicable in your area. Construction of a house on AG-exempt portions of land may change the property's tax status from agricultural use to residential or commercial use, depending on local policies and applicable tax regulations. This can lead to an increase in property values and, as a result, increase the amount of property taxes you have to pay. The addition of other structures to land that AG is exempt from can also have an impact on property tax assessments and increases. Property tax assessments can consider the value and use of the land as a whole, including all structures on it. Therefore, by adding new structures to AG land, the overall property value may increase, and the property taxes you have to pay may increase as a result. However, property tax rules and policies can vary by county in Texas, so it's important to consult with your local property tax office or tax advisor to understand in detail how building your mother-in-law's house or adding other structures could affect your property taxes in that area. They can provide information that is more specific and appropriate to your situation.

It wasn't always that way we have a lot of people from out West buying up properties to either redevelop them and have us pay them rent. And driving up the market value as well. The small town that I grow up in is almost exclusively owned by "land men" a lot of them don't do anything with it except collect mineral rights, luckily like he said most ppl wont trsnsfer those - we sold twelve acres of our familys lands and my father retained the rights, Probably the only thing I don't regret about that sale! Not to mention, it's just so growing TX is pretty low cost of living compared - if you want to rent lol

Do not live in Texas. Texas politics alone are a reason. Weather forecast in the next 20 years, Texas will be on fire. Florida is drowning due to rising oceans. I'm 6th generation Texan and in the process of leaving the state.

The land salesman is similar to a used car salesman. Lies and cheating.
