Riverside Retreat
THe land
New York Land & Lakes acquired this farm when the family that owned it sold to settle an estate. There haven't been cows here in many years, and the old buildings are long gone. What's left is rolling pastureland growing back wild with honeysuckle and apple trees — small brooks, quiet ponds, and riverside woodlands.
The star is the Susquehanna River, which borders all but one of the parcels. This is the same river that begins in Cooperstown — "America's Perfect Village" — just 11 miles north.
Every parcel is approved for building, with soil tests performed by a licensed professional engineer. Utility service runs along the road at each parcel, and title is clear — no liens, no back taxes. Under current zoning, these parcels can also support commercial use with township approval.

Options For
Financing Your Land
Financing for raw, unimproved land is very difficult to obtain through conventional means. Most banks don’t even offer a land loan program and those that do typically require at least 1/3 down and charge high fees, points, and other charges, and closings take months to occur. New York Land & Lakes offers “In-House” financing that is very easy and affordable and there are NO application fees, appraisal charges or pre-payment penalties!
Cash
By paying cash, you will save on interest and closing costs.
Home Equity Loan
Many of our customers use the equity they already have in their homes to borrow against to pay for their land purchase. It’s generally a loan at a much lower interest rate and the interest can be written off.
Conventional Bank Loan
Local banks can sometimes write land loans, but they typically charge many fees and take a long time to close.
Buying with an IRA (Individual Retirement Account)
Many don’t know this, but real estate can be purchased with IRA funds without paying penalties and deferring taxes on the gains.
Borrowing Against a 401k
You may be able to borrow against your 401K.
“The best time to plant a tree was 30 years ago. The second best time is now.” The same principle applies to buying land.
