Last orders for tillage farm

Purchasers looking at a quality Cork farm are interested in the security value of land, and its capacity for wealth preservation — essentially parking their cash in land; and according to its selling agent, the sale of this 137-acre farm near Bandon should be wrapped up in a month — that’s the optimistic view of land sales specialist Mike Brady as he calls last orders on Brothersfort Farm, Kilpatrick.

He started marketing the tillage farm just over a month ago, and has four interested parties with bids still at the €1.75m mark, but set to consolidate in the coming weeks.

There were repeat viewings, as well as visits to the 1970s four-bed residence in the middle of the superior farm this week, and having called for final offers, Mr Brady is taking a week or two’s holidays before coming back to the hustings.
