I hate to see someone lose their lease but, speaking as a developer, the subdivision part does not bother me a bit. Everyone hates developers until it's their turn to cash in and sell the farm or they want a house in a burbs.

Once that subdivision is built go door to door tell them your story ask permission to hunt those deer will still be there

Not everybody is money hungry.

Over the years we have killed a lot of nice deer on subdivisions. Great places to hunt.

Not sure if boomer is a funny name you picked for me (that’s fine) or if you think I’m an old man and need to get with the times. I’m forty two. I’m just not driven by money. If you can’t understand that it doesn’t bother me.

Not necessarily money hungrieness. If the demand for subdivision land in the area has increased, so has the property’s value. In other words, the highest and best use has changed. If timber or ag land is worth $3,000 pr ac and subdivision land is worth $5,000, the owner could sell and buy a similar piece in an area with limited development potential and still have $2,000 per acre left over. That certainly helps with future financial security as well as maybe some grand kids college tuitions. Not greedy. Just practical and the way it is.
Maybe this is really just the beginning of the next era for the OP. Good luck, hope you find a good situation going forward.

You boys enjoy your subdivisions if that’s what you like. Makes me sad every time I see woods and habitat for wild life torn down so somebody can make money and some people can live right on top of each other. They aren’t building more woods. Building lots of subdivisions though. Y’all call it progress if you want and talk about money all you want. We just see this and probably lots of other things differently.

I'm 57 and "OK Boomer" was a joke.
As far as "driven by money" and "greed", being a RE developer is just a job. Nobody called me "driven by money" and "greedy" when I was a firefighter. Funny how I changed careers and take risks as a developer and all of the sudden I'm "driven by money" and "greedy".
If you can't understand that it doesn't bother me.

Are you sad when they build schools "so somebody can make money"?
Are you sad when the build a hospital "so somebody can make money"?
Are you sad when they build a Chick Fil A "so somebody can make money"?
Are you sad when they build a church "so somebody can make money"?
Are you a socialist?
Nimbys suck.

Oh it pretty clearly bothers you a great deal. Don’t tear your rotator cuff patting yourself on the back either Mr risk taker.?. More people think the way you do than the way I do. That’s ok with me. I dont need anyone’s approval or permission to not hold the belief that more subdivisions and less woods are a wonderful thing. I don’t live anywhere near a big town or city and will never live in one of your subdivisions. I personally would find that sort of life about as appealing as a case of hemroids. I don’t live the way you do by my own choosing. It was and is available but I value different things than guys like you.

Schools, churches, hospitals, and even Chic Fil As are fine things. Three of the four are necessities. I have enough sense to hold that idea in my head simultaneously with the desire to not see our woods all mowed down. Maybe you aren’t capable of that. I don’t know. More subdivisions and less woods doesn’t seem good to me. As for being a socialist the fact that you asked that question tells me what I need to know about you and also cracks me up.?. Not hardly. I have lots of posts in the PF if you’re interested. I have no idea why I’ve wasted this time explaining myself to some guy on the internet. Subdivide away, my risk taking friend.?

Not really. If I wanted to be exposed to more ideas like yours I'd tune in MSNBC there Ace.

Got to doing so pondering about my blind I've decided I'm going to mount it to a trailer and make it a moble blind.

Making it mobile sounds like a good plan. Good luck with a new place to park it.
