ACREAGE CALCULATION

• The farm was recently surveyed. The surveyors have determined that the total acreage in the farm is 164.74 acres. The total acreage includes 2 exemptions that are noted on the survey. The total acreage in the exemptions is 3.25 acres. Both exemptions were on Deeds dated and recorded in the year 1880. The 3.0 acre exemption includes what is now known as North 950^th Road. The 0.25 acre exemption is a former school house site on the southwest corner of the farm.

 

• It is the opinion of the surveyors that the 2 exemptions have been possessed and maintained by the Allen Farm, the farm’s previous owners and the township road for decades.

 

• The road and school site exemptions will be conveyed to the buyer by Quit Claim Deed. No title insurance will be issued.

 

• Calculation: 164.74 total acres less 3.25 acres in exemptions = 161.49 acres.

 

• Therefore 161.49 acres will be transferred to the buyer by Warranty Deed with title insurance.

 

• The purchase price will be calculated by multiplying the per acre bid price times 161.49. The buyer will not be charged for the north road exemption and the southwest school site exemption.

 

• Please contact Van Adkisson @ (309)337-1761 with any questions or concerns.
