The world of hunting has its moments, but nothing beats the feeling of buying your own hunting property. Granted, hunting is a controversial topic and even though you've been hunting without any legal issues, there's an unmatched sense of freedom that comes with buying your own hunting land. 


Instead of the hundred and one rules that come with hunting on public land or a friend's property, here, the laws are yours to set and bend. After all, hunters who own their own territory can control several features that they would otherwise have to compromise on.


For example, how frequently do you want to hunt? How many people do you want to access the territory? Do you want to be the sole hunter? It's all up to you.


Before you rush and buy the first piece of land you come across through, there are things to consider. This is especially the case if you're a first-time buyer. Here are the top 4 most important things to keep in mind:


1. Think About Your Budget


No matter how good the land you have your eyes on is, if it's beyond your budget, it's useless. That's why your budget comes first. Having said that, the most crucial piece of advice when purchasing your own hunting land is to establish a budget beforehand. 

A lot of aspects relating to potential hunting plots will depend on the hunter's budget. Some of these include the land's size, location, and carrying capacity (how many individual animals of a specified species the land can hold), visit the surplus database for everything you may need for your hunting plot. In this phase, you should also consider whether you'll pay cash or finance a loan secured by the property. 


2. Pick a Recreation-focused Realtor 


Residential realtors barely know anything about hunting. Not the kind of grounds, capacity, terrain or any other factors. It's therefore crucial that you get in touch with a residential real estate expert. That's especially the case if it's your first time buying or you barely have any clue what important factors to look at. 


With the experience such realtors have, they can help you find great hunting lands since they're already accustomed to finding hunting acreage. Apart from being knowledgeable in the field, they also offer additional advice that can enhance your purchasing experience.


3. Type of Hunting Land


As with other types of property, hunting land is not all created equal. When assessing potential hunting property, there are considerations to make. Some questions to ask are:


• Do you intend to construct a hunting hut or any other structure on the land? 

• Are you going to use an ATV, the road, or some other method to access the land? 

• Are there enough trees for the different tree stands?

• Which properties are close to the land? Will they raise any issues?


4. Your Neighbors


Again, hunting can be controversial. To save yourself from a headache, it would be wise to get to know the local landowners on a potential property. That would be a terrific way to find out more details about the property you are assessing as well as the neighboring property.


Do your neighbors follow hunting management practices? Are they hunters? Do they grant access to their land to different types of hunters? Early on in the property ownership process, you should establish a solid rapport with your nearby neighbors to give you an indication of how things will go later on when you are both competing for wildlife.
