Riedel Communities

I often get requests for unrestricted acreage in the Hill Country which I myself find desirable at times.  Most people like the freedom to do their own thing.  Why not?  It’s their property.

First of all, it is very difficult to find affordable un-restricted tracts of land, especially in a desirable location for a home.  It is typically found along public highways where a rancher sells part of his ranch that fronts the highway.  It’s quick and easy money for the rancher because he does not have to build any roads to the property.

Second of all, if you can do whatever you want on your property, so can your neighbor.  That may not bother some people but most people want to know their property values and living environment will not be de-valued or impaired by their neighbor’s use of property.

If doing your own thing is important enough to risk the same from your neighbor then go for it but there is a better solution for those seeking more freedom in property use and that is reasonable and sensible restrictions.
