i was considering your point until “undeveloped land” popped up…natural TX land for ranches, farms and such are NOT considered undeveloped by the fifth generation native Texans whose families fought many battles to keep it just the way God designed it!
Again, not disagreeing that land like this means something to the folks who ranch or farm it. Fact remains, if it does not have sewage/wastewater, electrical infrastructure, paved roads, etc. - it is considered undeveloped to the real estate market. Thus, the lower price. If you don't want it changed - don't sell it to the developers.
If the data centers are allowed to claim eminent domain by the government, then we don’t have a choice about selling and we don’t get to set the price of the property.
agree with you, but the ones trying to do the selling, are the ones who inherited it from lineage, don't care about it other than the $$$ it will bring, AND they live in cities far from the land they are trying to disrupt, not caring about destroying the value of others' properties in the area...it just ain't neighborly, but greed is a powerful drug to those so inclined...
Yeah, I get texts and snail mail and even phone calls for the 300 acres that I have down the road that is used for hay pastures and wildlife exemption. Every single one calls the property “undeveloped land”.
