In the heart of American, towns from far and wide are offering free land for the taking. If you are ready to be a modern day settler, you can snatch up the opportunity to own your own piece of land for absolutely nothing.
Many communities welcome the idea of new people moving in. They are offering lots of free land and other incentives in an effort to have people consider becoming part of the town. The goal for these communities is to turn rural areas into town that can be sustained and grow economically. The offers these communities make are unique and local, so each offer and opportunity will differ from any other. Many of the offers include down payment assistance, tax rebates, small business loans and even free high-speed Internet access. Often, families with children get additional incentives, such as a $2,000 bonus per child, as aging communities are focused on filling their schools and their populations.
In most cases, there are certain rules that apply for obtaining free land, such as the promise to build a home or a business on the free land and the promise to maintain a residence for a number of years. As mentioned above, most of the areas are rural, so you may have a bit of a homesteading adventure on your hands. Many of these areas are small towns, with populations of 2,500 residents or less. But if you are up for the challenge, it is a great opportunity.
