Land buyers continued to be very active during the spring months with about the same number of transactions closed and approximately 54% more acres sold compared to the first quarter of this year. It is interesting to note that the additional acreage sold was mainly wooded land which traditionally has held a lower value than tillable land. This makes the average price per acre for second quarter a telling analysis of market growth possibilities. SW Wisconsin land prices continue to appreciate with an average increase of 6.5% over first quarter ending up at $3,403/acre.
