[Rhodes22-list] for Brad's eyes and those who reason only ...

[Bill Effros]

Brad,

Even seizing it through eminent domain, they still must give you a fair 
price.  It takes a lot of time to negotiate this price through the 
courts if the land holder chooses to dispute the price offered.

If you are the last piece of the puzzle, they would sooner give you a 
little more than they think it was worth prior to buying the other 
parcels than get all tangled up in the court system.

Use this information.  Decide what is the most you could get for the 
land and then negotiate for a price 10% higher.  You'll get it in a 
heartbeat if you can convince the government that you are prepared to 
fight for it.

Start shopping for another piece of land that you consider equivalent.  
Have the government swap your land for the new land so that even if you 
have to pay taxes, the government covers the tax cost as well as the 
property cost.

If you know what you are negotiating for, and it sounds fair, it is 
fairly easy to get these terms.
