I am looking at farmland in Virginia. One place I am looking at has a conservation easement with a Virginia non profit/state entity that restricts use of the land. It is mainly pasture land and woods and is decently steep so crops would be difficult. It is 150 acres and cannot be subdivided, there are limits on dwellings (and square footage), limits to where you can build structures etc. I am wondering if any of you have had any experience with easements and how much it impacted land value? Trying to figure out if its worth an offer or to just walk away and find something else.
