How big is an acre of land, and how many do you need for your dream property? We show examples to help you understand what a square acre looks like and then give examples of how much you can fit into one acre. How many acres do you need for a house? A barn? A lake? A farm? Our host, Jason, explains and shows how an acre compares to items like a football field and a city block.
Jason works for Raydient LLC, a real estate company. Raydient LLC owns and sells thousands of acres of rural land in the southern United States. It is a taxable subsidiary of Rayonier Inc., a large timber real estate investment trust. You can view available properties for sale and learn more about Raydient at www.raydientplaces.com.

Great video! My property law class used this as an introduction to adverse possession and it effectively showed how big an acre truly is. Thank you for your effort in this production.

@theodorecharles635 3 года назад

We have 5.4 acres in a rectangle that measures 608' x 400'. There's about a half acre wetland in one corner and about two and a half acres of bush in three areas of the property. The remaining part is taken up by the house and numerous outbuildings and one large open field of a bit over two acres It's been the perfect size for us, not overwhelming to take care of and leaves lots of room for other things to live. We tried having several horses on the place but eventually figured out that it worked best feed wise to just have two miniature horses. They had adequate food from spring til fall without having to buy any. There is still tons of room to add a large shop, or chicken coops, etc.

@theodorecharles635 3 года назад

@@raydientplacesproperties7744 Well, if any of your clients are considering making a move from Florida to Alberta the place will be going up for sale this spring. :) What's a tough sell around here is small (5-10 acres) raw acreages with no improvements on them. The reason for that is most of the time they are flat as a pancake bald ass prairie where you can see all four corner posts. Once you start adding up the costs of fencing it, putting in an all season access road, drilling a well, putting in a sewer system, running power, building a house and then planting a treeline for a windbreak and waiting 20 years for it to grow, it's no real surprise they stay on the market for a long time.

There’s land for sale in my area. It’s 1.45 acres and I wanna buy it but visually I don’t know how big a acre is. The land is covered by trees. Thanks for this video. I now can grasp how big an acre is. Hopefully nobody buys the land because the sign has been up for awhileee 😂

@cravinbob 7 лет назад

Be careful of having cattle just because you have a few acres, you need about 10 acres of good grassland to support 1 head of cattle plus water rights which someone else might own even if it is on your land. Same goes for mineral rights. You can raise your own chickens though and if you never had fresh fried chicken you just have never had chicken at all! The secret recipe for fried chicken is flour in a bag or container with salt and pepper mixed in, add cut up chicken and mix it all up again then put in the fridge overnite then fry it in hot oil to a golden brown...

@lyricsandstuff885 4 года назад

@gabrielar.6936 4 месяца назад

RU-vid videos are seen all over the world, including Continental Europe. The explanation of how big an acre is would have been perfect if you had thought of our metric system!
