Due diligence on Alcorn County land
Before anything else near Biggersville, make sure the ground near Kossuth reaches a public road, since the map alone won't display an easement. Then check FEMA's Flood Map Service Center for any part of the parcel near Kossuth that sits in a mapped flood zone. Call the planning office for land near Biggersville if the land can be built on or divided, well before you make an offer.
What the surrounding parcels tell you
Check the annual property tax on the county record for a parcel near Corinth; it is a recurring cost that a listing may not mention. Recent subdivisions near Biggersville on the county map can signal growth, or more traffic on a quiet road.
What the map won't display
Timber, crops and pasture on a parcel near Glen affect value and taxes, so walk the ground and ask what the county classification is. Ask neighbors near Biggersville about drainage, roads in winter and anything else a county listing won't mention.
