I just inherited 4600 Acres of land in the middle of bum-fuck no where in Australia.

Is there anyway I can put it to use? It's mostly desert/shrub that can't be farmed.

Lease to ranchers until they find something of value under it. Even if they never find shit under it land is a pretty solid investment.

>> No.1617873

Rural Australian here. The easiest is to just lease it to someone else. If you have more of an appetite for risk then look at share farming, either cropping or livestock. If you can get in with someone who lives locally they provide the labor, you provide the land, and you go halves in the crop/animals. but be careful there are some dodgey cunts out there.

Unless you have the right expertise or intend to get the expertise you are better off selling or renting to someone who has it. Hiring someone to work the land is another option and allows you to choose how much you want to get involved.

Selling immediately is likely not a good option. Like real estate you should keep it up for sale until most of the market has had a look at it. During this time you could rent the land then put it up for sale once local businesses have an interest in it and possibly some infrastructure is built raising its value. The sale value per annual rent is kind of like price per earning and you can compare that to the returns you can get elsewhere, though wait a while before deciding to sell based on this.

>> No.1618274

>>1617347
before you get it checked, see if you can find the original surveying data that the australian government did when they were locating resources in the 50's and 60's. This data exists and is the basis for most of the mine tenements today.

More advanced scanning, and physical drilling brings that to light, but the old records should indicate there is something.

If there is a fault line in, on or around your property you could be onto something.... gold, copper and gemstones fall in that shit.

Just an idea.

distance from the nearest grid connection.
distance from the farthest point that will access your power.

if there is too much distance between you and the entry point for the grid you lose money - resistance of the cables/wires loses power. then if there is nothing around to use it in the distance you can 'send' it then you are also wasting money.

like making blocks of ice in Sydney and transferring them to Perth on the back of a tabletop unrefrigerated. there is a point where it becomes a fools errand and not worth it economically.

you sit on it Anon, you sit on that motherfucking land because land only fucking appreciates.

people here in the bum fucking swamps of louisiana were called idiots when they payed ass tons for land that you couldn't walk on without sinking to your tits.

now there are fuck tons of hillbillies who held them sumbitches for decades and sold for fortunes.

your sitting on land in one of the hardest countries to get citizenship in the world. If you are a fucktard you sell now, if your smart you save for a decade and get a nominal return.
if you are a genius you keep for several decades and hop on the gain train after. if your a fucking grandaddymcgandalffrodofacefucking wizard, you don't fucking sell you let your kids inherit the land, LIKE WHOEVER LEFT IT TO YOU, and let them reap the rewards as feudal lords who sit back as their serfs mine the new BecomeRichAsAMotherfucker resource is found under your land.

You might wanna get it assayed again on minerals.
However you can't go wrong with leasing it to cattle ranching or tenement.

Oz has abundance of gold and minerals but you have take in consideration fesiablity of extraction alot of parts are just too remote or too small to really make it worth mining.
