I have always given highest priority to adding any land that adjoined mine. When a parcel was placed up for sale, we made every effort to acquire it. It was a stretch at times, but once it was joined to our original purchase, we could almost feel the additional "breathing room" and have never regretted the five additional purchases over the years. "Lebensraum" is living room for the soul!

A friend of mine owns 100 acres about ten miles from me, he did the same thing. Purchasing his original acreage then as the neighbors hit hard times, he would make a deal with them for him to buy a portion of their land, so they could keep their house. If they sold to him he in exchange gave them permanent permission to hunt all his land and rent the grassing pastures from him as needed.

That is a great way to keep neighbors in place and to make deals that may otherwise not have happened. None of my additions had homes on them: one major piece was nothing but stumps and mutilated landscape. After ten years and a lot of work, it is smooth ground covered by pine and sweetgum. It's satisfying to compare then and now.
