It's probably worth more as buildable lots... because a Golf Course is Business Income, and my guess is it's income is low to negative long term.You paid a premium to live in a (financially) exclusive "Golf Community" and now the core of it will be medium density and no more Golf Course.Those who paid the biggest premium most likley were those with homes right on the green--now they will be on the front lines (so to speak) with medium density (which might include Section-8 and other Governmental Assistance apartment buildings).Melinials (as a rule) do not value playing golf very much, and with the business income of the course being low--highest and best use...It's also probably going to effect your property values...Location, Location, Location.In short doing this seems to really shaft the Existing Homeowners, too bad your city government doesn't rezone it as a huge duck pond, dig it out and flood it.Even with the course closed there are carrying fees, such as taxes and insurance, so leaving it as a self owned green belt would be a shark bite for the owner.It's interesting that they don't want to zone the same as the existing doughnut of homes and want to go with Lower (to no) income group of people in the middle of the doughnut.From a return on investment it makes sense, but so might a stench producing rendering plant.If they zone to the existing doughnut of home the price loss on homeowners MIGHT be less.This seems to be the trend of the future...

@John Hurley- thanks for the outline 1) you wont be able to waulify for a conventional or a FHA loan until you have a solid 2 yrs of self employment under your belt...possible to have a co borrower or two go on the loan with you 2) depending on the marketplave you are in , you might be able to look for a seller that is willing to take a small down payment and carry the remainder on a private note ( this is hard to find as sellers are normally not interested) ....3) if you buy a property as a rental - the down payment will be a min of 15% of the price ( possibly more ) It sounds to me that your best bet will be to accept the 100K / focus on getting your product and business off the ground and established and then consider buying

Speaking from experience (even though I was 31 when I went), it can feel a little intimidating when you meet people who are doing multi-million dollars deals multiple times a year and you only have knowledge and a couple of SFH deals under your belt, but it shows you that it’s possible with a little bit of guts and determination.
