Stock Realty & Auction Co. reports there are few inquiries from people asking what their land would sell for during late summer and early fall. It is becoming apparent that low commodity prices have gotten the attention of sellers. Marketing time is over 90 days to sell a farm, and land won't sell unless it's priced at or below appraised value.
