Where do I find such land that meets those requirements at the kind of 
firesale prices of other real-estate? 

 I've been looking at the different websites of which I am familiar, and much 
of the property has not gone down in price, including pieces I've seen listed 
for 6 months to a year.  

I'm always looking to buy something better than what I already purchased, 
before I actually move and start toiling in place.  To me, this kind of real 
estate seems to be the only kind selling, today.  I would honestly be 
interested if you had some suggestions ....bobford
