But landowners have other choices for the use of their wide-open spaces, even in a slow economy. The 2004 Statewide Land Trust Conference hopes to offer a few more conservation-friendly options for open lands. Common Ground, Gaining Ground: Tools for Shaping the Texas Landscape on Feb. 27-28 in Austin will offer participants training for land conservation, networking opportunities and meetings with state and federal agencies. Carolyn Vogel, with the Texas Land Trust Council at the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, encourages attorneys, appraisers, private landowners, and those involved in land trusts to attend. Vogel said when land is passed down through a family, it often is split up through fences or partitions, which can harm the natural movement of wildlife. Sometimes the inherited property is too small to live off of, and parcels are sold off. Development affects water quality and the ecosystem. “A lot of landowners feel they are backed against a wall,” Vogel said. “The only thing they can do is sell since the land can no longer support them. Texas loses more farmland every year, (about 283 square mile), than any other state in the country.” Landowners, their advisors and the conservation community will come together at the 2004 conference to learn about the range of assistance available to them. This includes technical and financial assistance programs and potential tax incentives. These tax incentives will be discussed as part of an all-day conservation easement workshop on Friday, Feb 27. Another topic will be a recent study by the American Farmland Trust and Texas A&M University called Texas Rural Lands: Trends and Conservation Implications for the 21 st Century. A session and workshop will discuss findings about how and why open land is disappearing and what the future may look like. Continuing education credits in several fields are pending. Early registration by Feb. 6 is $65 for Texas Land Trust Council members and $85 for non-members. After that date, the fee is $100.

Customer Review: Write an online review and share your thoughts with other shoppers! 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: A useful primer but not enough for the serious investor , October 30, 2005 Reviewer: aircooledheaven from Northants United Kingdom I eagerly awaited delivery of this book, I'd been told it was the definitive guide for buying Florida property. Plus I'd read the glowing 5 star review here on Amazon. Overall I was dissapointed, particularly in the superficial mannner in which the most important aspects of property investing were covered. All the common sense stuff is there, like 'a dirty property won't get any repeat rentals'. But the nitty gritty is skated over. No useful information on financing, obtaining a US mortgage, management companies and fees, yields and ROI. Clearly written by someone who doesn't own a rental property in Florida. This book is a good primer but don't expect it to provide enough information to go right out and do what it suggests in the title. Was this review helpful to you? 32 of 32 people found the following review helpful: Excellent guide for buying a property in Florida , March 1, 2004 Reviewer: Frankie from UK This is an excellent guide to buying a property in Florida which beats it's rivals hands down. It is written by people with an indepth knowledge on the subject and an intimate knowledge of the local market - something of great importance to anyone considering making this big step. I would regard it as essential reading to anyone thinking of buying in Florida. Was this review helpful to you?
