It seems like we only ever hear about big cities in the movies, on social media, and in the news. Cities have a lot to offer: vibrant culture, good food, live music, exciting sports, and endless things to do. But behind all that glitz and glamor, cities are becoming more polluted, unsafe, and unkind every day. And it may come as a surprise to you to learn that the countryside has everything we just listed cities have, but in their own way. From welcoming rural communities to delicious homegrown food to a million outdoor activities, here are eight benefits of living in the beautiful countryside.

We’ve all been hearing about rising inflation and an upcoming recession in the news recently. From the COVID-19 pandemic to the Ukraine-Russia war, we’re living in an unprecedented time affecting industries across the board. But how exactly are current events affecting farmland prices now and into the rest of the year? Here’s a look into…

It seems like anytime we turn on the television, we see news of rising prices and inflation or terrifying stories of contaminated produce. Wouldn’t life be much easier if we could go back to the way things used to be? Back to the basics? Some people call this going “off-grid.” They disconnect from city life,…

One of the best investments you can make in Tennessee is purchasing land since the state is one of the few left in the country with affordable raw land prices. Undeveloped land can be easy to acquire as there’s usually little to no competition, and when you consider the low maintenance costs and potential for profit, the investment opportunities make sense.

If you’re in the market for undeveloped land in Georgia, you may have noticed that traditional financing may not be an option for purchasing raw land. Most banks don’t like to finance undeveloped land as they feel the borrower isn’t as incentivized to repay the loan as they would if the property were their primary residence. You can avoid the banks with owner-financing through Hurdle Land & Realty. We have land across several southern states, Georgia included. If you have dreams of owning undeveloped land in Georgia, give us a call. We can finance your dreams starting as low as $295! 

Whether you’re new to Tennessee or you’ve lived here your whole life, a dream of running a mini farm just makes sense. The rolling hills and green pastures are perfect for homestead living. All it takes is the dream and the land to grow. Hurdle Land & Realty takes the bank out of the equation…

Making New Year’s resolutions is a time-honored tradition of setting goals and intentions for the upcoming year. The practice as we know it today traces back as far as 4,000 years, changing and developing over time. Today’s tradition looks a bit different for each of us; whether it’s the celebration of beginning anew, voicing intentions, or making this “the year,” we can all appreciate a good resolution. But it’s those big life goals that can inspire excitement and motivation. And that means many of us are setting goals this year like reconnecting with ourselves, getting started in the ideal career, or buying land and building our dream home. 

Living on your new property in Georgia, you might still find some pretty great wintery weather to enjoy, even though it’s still a Southern state.

The holidays are coming quickly. And now that you have purchased your beautiful new homestead on the rural land in Georgia that you found through Hurdle, you are likely eager to share with family and friends the beauty of your surroundings.
