Good tips, quick and to the point video. You should link an excel sheet checklist so people can print it off and take it with them when viewing a property!
Easments! Don't buy a "landlocked" property! This is one part of title search. Surface drainage! Ponding and dirt character (sticky thick mud that drys very slowly? Sandy-gravel mix that drains quickly? etc) Talking to neighbors is super important... you may find advantages or disadvantages of the land, but you ESPECIALLY want to get a feel for who you will live next to.
Read the info from the title company. Water, food, shelter, first aid/medications, means of defense, and a plan. I am off grid. And get fire numbers for address. He's assuming you have an address and not T.B.A. We are on private drives and one 2 track is one way around one of the lakes. We had a forest consulant come up. Was worth the cost to learn best practices for my woods. We found a few springs when we first walked our property. Our property was partially logged in early 1900's. Still have some old growth in the wetter areas.
Good info , lots of crap lying around that property . shows the previous owner didn't care . look for waste oil and such possibly dumped on the property . etc as in toxic crap from previous owners.
Thank you for the comment. The property is owned by people from out of the area, and they have no clue what it is like. Have you ever run into a situation like this?
The thing is - it's always super shocking when you think a property is empty, and you see a tent or a person walking around. I've had people tell me they owned the property or that the government told them they could live there. It's a sketchy situation when you're WAYYYY out of town and don't know what these other people are up to. Especially ones that you might suspect are doing some sort of trafficking.

Great point! Have you ever met neighbors AFTER buying a property and thought, "If only we had known?!"
