Tip
on Searching:
It can save a LOT
of search time if
you use the specific
'land/rural'
searches
on websites that combine lots of estate agents' properties
Tip on checking a property's area:
To check the local environment & community statistics & amenties for
any property, use the search links listed as useful aids & services for
property-buying (includes local amenties, how many vets, other boarding kennels
and catteries, animal centres, pet shops, flood areas etc)

the properties with land.

Prime Location (UK) www.primelocation.com A really good site combining many/most of the land
estate agents. Use the 'keyword
search' - type in "acre, paddock" which
will pull up all the properties with land.
Direct
link to 'keyword search'
You can search on up to 3 counties at any one time,
very useful especially as you can get interesting properties which might
just be over the border of the ones you are looking to move to. We personally
found 'Prime Location' to be the most consistently useful website - time
and hassle-saving
Rural Scene www.ruralscene.co.uk
Although their properties are listed in Prime Location (above), this
site is worth a mention to anyone looking for a rural
property with land to start a rural business.
I found this site very useful when I was finding it hard to locate
a suitable property within budget - it gave me confidence that
there were suitable properties out there, even if some of them
were out of our geographical or budget range - be prepared
to 'drool' over some of these if you are looking for a complete
lifestyle change!
Team Prop www.teamprop.co.uk
Another useful site which combines many estate agents' properties.
Search by location AND amenities:
Useful search which allows you to narrow down, or widen your search
to very specific areas (eg anywhere between 1 & 50 miles of a location
name or postcode). You can choose either 'paddock' or 'rural situation'
to find properties of interest.
