Hello, Maine forum regulars! I am currently living in Ma, north of Boston, but would love to buy land in southern Maine. My ultimate goal would be to leave Ma in ten years and build a house...kids in school and eldercare responsibilities make it hard to relocate now. I went to school in New Hampshire, and spent a lot of time in the York, Wells area. I would be looking for a few acres, preferably with no builder tie in, as I don't plan on building for a while. I love Maine...the people, the landscape...I have always wanted to live there.
I absolutely love Wells, and that would be my first choice...but I don't know much about some of the other towns in Southern Maine. Anyone have any thoughts on Elliot, and the Berwicks? Any realtors have any predictions on the Southern Maine land market? From what I read, I don't see the market rebounding until well into 2009.....do any of you feel differently? I have a down payment, I need some time to figure out how much I can afford to finance.
I welcome your opinions and insight.
