Buying Farmland in Kelowna and Okanagan BC
In recent times, buying farmland and acreages in Kelowna and Okanagan BC has been on a steady increase. These properties are used for farming activities such as fruit, vegetable, livestock farming, or any other private use. If you are interested in buying farmland, it is best to have it outskirt of the city to avoid congestion and enhance safety. Regardless of the size of farmland you want to buy, there is a huge market for farmland in Kelowna and many people are seeing reasons to acquire a property for farming activities or private use.
Nevertheless, before buying a property, there are several factors to put into consideration. Farmlands in Okanagan come at various prices and these prices are determined by different factors. Below are the factors that dictate the price of acreage in Kelowna:
Survey Certificate
There is more to buying a property than meets the eye. If you are not sure about the details of the land, the survey certificate will reveal every detail to you. This certificate tells you where the acreage is located, as well as the size of the land. Therefore, it is expected for buyers to know how much land they are buying through a survey certificate.
Fencing
Depending on your requirements and uses of the property consider the fencing. Is the acreage fenced already? If not what are the costs of having it built to your requirements for style and use.
For what purpose are you buying the land?
The size of land you are buying is dependent on the purpose of the land. Soil and water test should also be done to determine whether the land is suitable for what you plan to use it for. For example, if you plan to farm vegetables, is the soil type and quality going to increase your revenue?
It is also important to know the history of the land as it will give you the right perception of the land.
Water Resources
If you are buying farmland, water is a vital factor to put into consideration. Water rights law seems to be complicated and you must understand water usage rights before buying land. Survey the land, consult experts, and make sure you confirm if you have the legal right to irrigate from nearby water bodies. As a potential land buyer, the major thing you to understand is the complexity of the local water laws before making any decision.
Understanding Zoning
You need to understand the zoning structure of the land and whether the purpose of the land would conflict. If the zoning restriction contradicts the purpose for which you want to use the land, then there is no need to purchase the land.
