Hi James....... my remark was really geared toward people who were using names on this website other than their own. Its nice to see people who aren't afraid to hide their identity. I have a small place on Rt.6 in Ashtabula. I'm really not looking for anything, but just taking in conversation on this website waiting to see what happens with this shale stuff. I was approached by NELA and signed a lease with them back in Dec. They told me somewhere between 10-18 months thats when they are putting out the 20,000 acres or so out for bid.

Here is one Jim. I am learning and am not jumping off a cliff in this. But I have a neighbor I might be able to help. She is not in good health has 80 acres near me. She has a sale sign up on a piece of property across from here home. I called her today and she has no idea as to what the value could be to her. O told her to call me back when she feels a bit better and I would fill her in .
With the possibilities In think she could get a up front lease that might be able to get her into a better financial picture, she might be able to move if she would like to into a assisted living center with no worries about bills, she could still leave the farm to any relatives she might have which I do not know if she does or not but I would hate to see her sell the property at a low market price not knowing she could still keep it.
