Property/land ideas

[Dave W]

Non farming Friend of mine looking to buy a property that comes with 16 acres of land that has previously been rented to local arable farm.
the property is top end of budget so there won’t be a lot of spare cash in the short term. They would like to maximise income from the land over the standard arable rental if possible with a long term view to do glamping etc.
equestrian isn’t a road they want to go down ideally.

What would arable rent bring in?

All ideas welcome

Why buy and keep the land, with the rental hassle,
Buy the property, sell 14 ac, be £200,000, better off and not be maxed out financially,

That's not for agricultural use though must be for a couple houses or green houses to grow cannabis... Or something.

Normally I'd happily defend the rich against paying more taxes but if they're going to do dumb sh!t like that then maybe the government would be better having it...

 

[Still Farming]

Lots selling for development and don't want to pay tax on it so looking for more ground therefore goes up and up as no one making anymore??

200k is a hell of alot for better access. Must be one hell of a short cut.

I would stay away from the glamping end of things. Saturated market, cheap holidays abroad in comparison.

I’m with @grainboy here land is worth far more than you can ever make from it reasonably so get it sold and enjoy the money!
