50 Acres For Sale in Ohio

Fifty acres in Ohio gives you enough land for ownership to become a legitimate income-producing investment. In the state’s northwest agricultural tier, your 50 acres of prime tillable farmland in Mercer or Auglaize County can generate meaningful annual cash rent income at current benchmark rates. Ohio State University Extension publishes an annual Western Ohio Cropland Values and Cash Rents Survey that tracks per-acre cash rent by soil class and county, which can give you a useful reference point when underwriting an agricultural land purchase in the state. That documented income stream can make your northwest Ohio farmland easier to evaluate using an income approach to value, and Farm Credit Mid-America offers rural land loan products that may factor rental income into the underwriting calculation. In southeast Ohio, 50 acres of hardwood timber and recreational ground in a productive wildlife county can give you a serious hunting property. Wayne National Forest surrounds and intermingles with private land across the hill country counties, and your private acreage adjacent to national forest may benefit from wildlife movement created by hunting pressure on public land. Prices at 50 acres in Ohio range from premium prices for northwest prime farmland to moderate prices for southeast recreational timber ground.
