I'm sure the locals know what it's worth. But I'm surprised the land at Byers CO was so cheap.

Southeast Colorado
I think Slough mentioned it a couple weeks back. It sold on Big Iron a couple of days ago in 4 tracts from $750 to $900/acre. I'm pretty familiar with that area. It's still a ways out of Denver on I-70..........but not THAT far. When you drive through the area you start to see some development potential springing up. Have to get about 30 miles west of there for it to really pick up............but 20 years ago there was nothing until you got about 20 miles outside of Denver.

Anyway..........I know it's the dry high plains. But I think their yields are probably better than here just due to a little more snow and less evaporation. And you have that potential Denver expansion thing which will perhaps some day let you sell those acres by the lot.

On the other hand.........you have our ridiculous Colorado politics to deal with. So perhaps it was really only worth $50. LOL
