Many years ago I started the post on here that is stickied at the top... I had a lot of questions about buying my own place....well, on Jan 2 we signed a contract on 100 acres in Coke county! My dream is finally coming true. We have a lot of work to do clearing mesquite overgrowth, moving blinds, and getting the new drilled well pumping, but I'm looking forward to all of it! Thanks for all the info on the other post. It helped a LOT.

Nothing like being a landowner, not making any more of it. Congrats

Get ready to work twice as hard as you have ever worked in your life. But the drive home is full of such satisfaction.

Thanks guys. This isn't going to be a place to live... just a getaway. About 45 min from my home here in San Angelo. It's going to be a labor of love for sure. The kids are already excited to start cutting brush and making bonfires! As soon as I close I'll get some pics up.

I'd say 15 - 20 miles from bronte. It's just north of Robert lee. Maybe 2-3 miles

I'm going to start seriously looking. Did you have a 'buyers agent' (to possibly recommend)? I'm looking at East Kimble county, South East Menard, Mason, San Saba, South McCulloch.

No I did not use a buyers agent. But to be honest I kind of befriended the sellers agent when he showed us the property. He kept me very informed and hinted that if I stuck to my guns I'd get it. With the internet available I find properties just as fast as a buyers agent could contact me. I hired one in the past and he would contact me on properties that were already listed online. My advice would be to sign up at landsoftexas.com for alerts that meet your criteria.

I've bought two properties and am now looking for a third and I also found all of them myself on landsoftexas. I also sold my lands by listing only on landsoftexas and did not use an agent at all.
