I had an offer on some land accepted but now the seller has decided to put overage on it. I don’t mind the overage as the possibility of development is so low it just won’t happen, it certainly didn’t factor in the offer.
Being new to this game I now find that a mortgage would be very difficult as a result of the overage agreement. I don’t need a mortgage to buy it but I assume it also removes my ability to borrow using the land as guarantee. That may matter to me in the future.
I offered top dollar for the land (18 acres) but now feel this overage makes it worth less.
That was a long winded way to get to the “how much does an overage clause devalue land?” question.
