Iowa Black Corn Land Boom Promises High Returns
An Iowa real estate pitch describes the corn belt as a garden and black corn land rising in value from $60-$80 an acre to $110-$150 now, with forecasts of $250-$325 later. It offers numerous 40-315 acre farms across Buchanan and Black Hawk counties near Waterloo and Waterloo area towns, noting high yields and mortgage options to entice buyers, plus a contest for best ears of corn and a sales push from a Waterloo agent.
