Do you sell land to China?

This question is important and the answer is NO! We do not sell land to China. Another question we frequently get asked is Do you sell land to Bill Gates? The answer is no we have not sold land to Bill Gates either. Iowa has the strongest law against China being ineligible to buy farmland. We are cover this in our terms and conditions which says, “Restirctions may exist on the purchase of farmland by nonresident aliens, foriegn businesses, foreign governments or others in certain jurisdictions. It is your responsibilty to ensure you are legally able to buy farmland prior to placing bids. In the event you are deemed ineligible to purchase farmland prior to closing you will forfeit your earnest deposit to the seller. Now Bill Gates is an American citizen and no law exists to prevent him from buying but our research shows that he has never been an auction buyer, he has purchased his land holdings by private sales only.
