10 Acre Raw Land purchased from out of state seller who inherited the parcel. Asking price was 24k. I noticed the land was on a hillside so I hiked up and saw there was a potential view. I cleared many trees myself before finding a local with equipment who cleared the remainder of trees in exchange for keeping the timber. I also paid him $1000 for culvert/driveway rough in. Sold without realtor on FB Marketplace.
