The fare warning was always since we arrived in 2007 never buy a house that backs up to farm, open field, or pasture that’s used for cows.
Because eventually that can be buildable land that not only the developer but anyone that buys the property.
We live on a preserve, that has a wall with a 10 foot drop. The preserve behind our house has some dry areas, and then turns into wet areas, finally actual standing water.
If developer could build houses on the Prairie, they would’ve done it during the building of Richmond. But the wetlands or preserves or depending on where you come from swamp, is a protected area and no amount of money could have changed it from a preserve to buildable lots. Because if it was a possibility it would have already been done
Flood zones can eventually be changed to allow for building. Just because today a 100 year flood zone, behind your property, In 10 year or so it may be rezoned.
