I like reading what both the above realtors have to say, even though I’m not in lock step with either of them. Both of them have said things that have registered with me and influenced my opinions.
In answer to your question about homes on acreage, I think the distance to employment is the bigger factor; and I think that the outlying properties will see more effects than the properties closer to services and employment.
However, I don’t think the type of buyer who moves a young family onto a 20 acre parcel out in the outskirts is the type of buyer whose primary interest is leveraging their home into a “fantastic wealth building system”.
