A. Water QualityThe quality of the water the well produces is just as important as the quantity. You can have two separate tests done to determine the quality of water that the well produces.The first is a potability test to verify that the water is safe for human consumption. The main purpose of this test is to verify that the well contains no contamination, and that the water is safe for human consumption. Many lenders require such a test before they will lend on country property. |

A. Digging Your Own WellIf you're considering the purchase of a property without a proven water supply, you'll have some difficult choices to make. You can go ahead and take a chance, hoping that you'll find good water when you drill a well after completing your purchase.Or, you can drill a well before completing your purchase of the property. Many country property buyers make their purchase offers contingent upon drilling a satisfactory well, with the acceptable gallons per minute and quality of water clearly specified in the contract. If you choose this strategy, plan to spend $20 or more per foot for drilling costs in most parts of the country, with no guarantee that water will be found. Those costs are negotiable between the buyer and seller, so plan to do some hard bargaining. |
