Description

Peoples Company is proud to offer 224 acres m/l of highly productive Clay County farmland to be sold in three separate tracts at public auction on Tuesday, October 22nd, 2019 at 10:00 AM at the Clay County Regional Events Center in Spencer, Iowa. This is a great opportunity for local farmers and/or investors to expand their current operations in an area where quality farmland does not come available to the public very often. The 2019 farm lease has been terminated and the farm will be selling “open” for the 2020 crop year.  Farm is easily accessible via hard surface roads and is within a short haul of several competitive grain merchandisers. Nice potential for a private building site with rural water and electric available (contact agent for details). All three tracts border Dan Green Wildlife Management Area providing private access to additional recreational opportunities. Property is located northeast of Spencer, Iowa in Sections 19 of Lake Township and Section 24 of Meadow Township, Clay County, Iowa.
