Look around. I wanted a retreat. It's 60 miles outside a major metropolitan area where I work and live. I got 10 acres for $40,000. Someone was behind on their property taxes and wanted out before they lost it to the bank. I bought it for 30% under market.
I’m on five about 35 miles out. I’m good.
Edit: mine has two full houses and a shop.
