If ONE thing you need when you get with a residential, farm and ranch, or commercial REALTOR is for them to have a WARY EYE about them. That means being OBSERVANT. Beyond POWER LINES near the house or a cell tower they need to
Beware Of The Vacant Lot Next To Your Dream Home.
Don't trust new home sales people in model homes with this concept EVER. Get an agent. Pull ZONING MAPS and see what the zoning is.
