Buying Rural Land & Farmland in Minnesota & North Dakota

Minnesota and North Dakota hold some of the most productive and affordable rural land in the country — tillable cropland, pasture and grazing land, CRP and recreational tracts, timber, and building acreage, from 20-acre parcels to full sections.

Before you fall for the view, confirm what you can do with it: zoning and permitted use with the county, whether the road is county-maintained or a private easement, and whether power, a well, and septic can be brought to a building site (ask for a perc test and a floodplain check). On tillable ground, ask about the lease, soil rating, drainage, and mineral rights. Ag-classified parcels also carry lower taxes until you build.

Much of the region's rural land trades quietly, and the best tracts — river frontage, prime cropland, established hunting land — move fast when they list. Whether you're looking for a working farm, recreational and hunting acreage, or a private building site with room to roam, we can help you find the right parcel and evaluate it with clear eyes.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does farmland and rural land cost in Minnesota and North Dakota?

Rural land is priced per acre and varies widely by type and location. Prime tillable cropland in the Red River Valley often runs $4,000–$8,000+ per acre, while pasture, timber, and recreational tracts in the lakes country and western North Dakota typically sell for less; smaller building parcels near the metro carry a premium per acre. Across current MN/ND inventory, listed parcels of 20+ acres range from the tens of thousands into the millions depending on size and productivity.

How do I bring utilities to a rural building site?

Most rural building sites rely on a private well and septic system rather than municipal utilities. Before buying raw land to build on, budget for a well (roughly $8,000–$15,000) and a septic system ($10,000–$30,000), and confirm power can be run to the site. A perc test tells you whether the soil will support a septic system — a key due-diligence step on undeveloped land.

Can I run livestock or farm the land?

It depends on county zoning and the parcel's classification. Most agricultural-zoned land in the region allows crops, livestock, horses, and poultry; parcels near city limits may have restrictions. Verify permitted uses — plus any existing farm lease or CRP enrollment — with the county before you purchase.

What about internet and power on rural land?

Availability varies across rural MN and ND. Fiber is expanding but not universal, and Starlink satellite internet is a common option. Grid electric service is usually nearby, but running power to an undeveloped site has a cost, and LP (propane) is typical instead of natural gas.

How do I find farmland and rural land for sale near me?

Tell us your target area, acreage, and intended use — cropland, pasture, hunting land, or a building site — and we'll send matching parcels across Minnesota and North Dakota, from Red River Valley cropland to central-Minnesota lake-and-timber tracts and grazing land west into North Dakota.

How are rural roads maintained in Minnesota and North Dakota winters?

County-maintained roads are plowed by the county, though response is slower than city streets. Township and private roads may leave plowing to the landowner. Confirm how a parcel is accessed and who maintains the road before you buy.
