I’ve inherited land at a beach from my family which was acquired on a coast line in the 1960’s with plans to one day be built on. Now for over 50 years the area has been deemed ‘useless land’ and unbuildable by the government due to the threat of ‘climate change’ and flooding in the area.
I’ve been looking into this recently and found that other land owners are refusing to sell, based on the fact that they’ve never seen the area come close to flooding in over 50 years and sense that the government is up to something fishy in acquiring land for literally nothing with probable future plans of selling this iconic land to foreign investors at a gigantic profit. So far 500 out of 2000 people have sold their land back.
I can’t help but think that this whole thing is part of something much more sinister, in that the situation will ‘unexpectedly’ change and all the propaganda will die off once they eventually possess all the land again and sell for a miraculous profit.
Has there been any other notable cases over the world where a corrupt government has forcibly rendered land useless?

I mean how badly do you need 500 bucks? I say hang onto it just for shits and giggles
Kevin Lee
Nah cunt tell them to get fucked, they'll just sell it to chinese investors and land developers for 6 gorillion and furthers crew this country over
Adrian Cruz
Exactly, it would be better to literally just sit and camp on it
Matthew Bailey
It seems inevitable. You have no means by which to enforce your own property rights.
Luke Cruz
Dont ever sell your lend to the goverment
Adam Allen
Get it designated a natural habitat for perpetuity or some shit. Assuming you can't actually use the land. I mean, I'd use it for camping or surfing and get a damn lawyer.

You'd have to be retarded to sell ocean front land for $500.
Jaxon Jackson
Salt the earth. Hose the property with mercury, agent orange, radioactive materials (think atomic boy scout), anything to render it undevelopable and a major cash sink.
Ethan Cruz
Obviously just keep it, $500 isn't worth your time to even fill out the paperwork.
Otherwise, band together with the other landowners and try to get it usable? I dunno
Zachary Jackson
eminent domain, kikes use it all the time to steal land for profit
Elijah Martin
I'll give you £1000
David Green
Can you explain what that means?
That's the plan but slowly alot of them are selling up cause they don't wanna deal with it anymore
Jackson Carter
we deserve it precisely because people like OP don't go on killing sprees
Isaac Bennett
Might as well keep it honestly
Thomas Anderson
Definitely do this right here if they try to force you off
Andrew Cooper
I wouldn't sell any piece of land for $500
Rather develop it even if it's just a shit shack or cabin or something
We're returning to a period of landed gentry owning everything and the peasants being renters
You don't want to be one of the peasant renters

>eminent domain >have house in rural town >town starts booming because military base near by >"Hey user, we're going to need your house and the whole block to build a new 4 lane street." >eminent domain my shit >building project stalls >City property manager sells the assets to local developer >The lot where my house was is not a parking lot for a $50 million dollar mini-mall >City paid $13,000 for the property
I've seen more crooked shit than that, city counsel members selling land to relatives for $1/sqft.
Carson Wright
Federal, State or Local government?
Dylan Adams
Why would you sell it for $500 are you fucking retarded?
Bentley Rogers
he is
Mason Martinez
1000 euros if you sell it to me.
Carson Cooper
tfw when tulip jews are trying to get New Holland back
Jonathan Phillips
I'll buy it for $501
Ayden Wood
of course they are trying to cheat you. if any of them truly believed their doomsday scenarios, do you really think they'd continue to do this half-assed shit? look at Germany, they screech the loudest yet they always miss their goals because they picked coal over nuclear power. if I told you that your house will burn down if you turn that fucking gas cooker on even just one more time, and then you found me at night playing around with the gas cooker, what would be your conclusion about my prior statement?
Landon Morgan
5,000 usd. Tell them pol is giving you a better offer
Kayden Butler
Well when it comes to state governments the most bullshit things Ive seen them do are mainly in the cities and to do with changing zoning laws. For instance banning highrise development in certain land then either changing that zoning or granting an exemption when a major developer buys it up hence making the land a bargain.
Check if they have compluslary acquisition laws in Vic if not definatley organise a meeting with the other residents to deal with this as a united front.
Justin Reyes
Even if it was flooding you can build a sea wall on it to reclaim the land and lower the water to your preference.
Jack Bell
You didn't move "up" far enough. Stay the fuck out of QLD though, cunt.
Benjamin Gutierrez
>Building a sea wall
How much is it to build a levee/dyke? That's not the problem anyway, otherwise the government would have built them, they're just saying the area will flood.
Isaiah Cook
True, I see that all the time too. Yep in Vic there is compulsory acquisition
Blake Rogers
You don't really own the land anyway. Ever wonder why it's called Real Estate? It's not capitalised to make it look important...
Real is royal in Spanish. The land is literally owned by the crown in Australia. Don't pay your rates or property taxes and you'll find out really fucking quick how much you own.
If they want it, they'll find a way to take it.
Adam King
I moved up to the great lakes. It's nice and all. Just I don't know anyone, work is scarce and everything is so far apart etc so I just sit home and drink
Tyler Lee
thats not why its called real estate
Evan Rodriguez
tell them you will only sell if the government adds a couple hundred zero's onto their offer.
Wyatt White
I will buy it off you for 1000
Kevin Richardson
Don't sell, sounds fishy Keep your parents heritage intact
Julian Ortiz
how much area does your land cover?
Angel Cook
500 dollars is nothing. Why would you even consider this?
Carter Perez
This.
Nathan Barnes
>hire a bunch of Emus >hire >Emus EPBP
Leo Ward
The government is going to buy the land from you and then they're going to resell it to some chinaman for millions.
Josiah Bell
So does the government deeming it useless mean you legally cannot sell it to anyone else? lol you are fucked m8
Jace Flores
might be worth getting a land valuer to assess the value of your land
Charles Brown
even if that were the case, I'd just refuse to sell out of spite then. who even cares about $500, that's nothing. if they want to fuck you over, fuck them over in return. if they try to pull any dirty tricks, contact every single news station you can find. one of them will be willing to report it
Christopher Moore
how much land do you own op, if a retarded government offers you 500 bucks for land either you dont got shit, or they are trying to jew you hard. Careful though they will try forcing you off, try placing traps around where they will be spotted.
Liam Morales
It's alot trickier than that
It has been reported on the news, it's recognised as a scandal
Owen Gray
Enough to be subdivided or build a big ass house on it. Other houses in the area that aren't on the coast line fetch 200-600k.
Carson Wilson
Mark my words what will happen next: Someone will see a turtle egg on the beach, after investigation it will be named as some super-rare "gold reef turtle" or some other made up shit. Simultaneously an animal rights campaign will launch stating the costal development is the leading cause to turtle extinction. Gov will pass law declaring your land as a "protected animal sanctuary". Taxes will be raised by 10x current rates. In addition to taxes, fines will be imposed for landholders who aren't building "turtle nesting habitats" on their land. Eventually between taxes and fines the $500 offer will be accepted.
t. 50 yr old
Robert Ward
i got an idea, it may not be great, but build a house and tell the government to buy the house with the land for 180k or fuck off.
now this is plausible and could be rigged on their favor.
Christian Bell
Mate it's already happened, you're right on the money, they said:
"There are concerns about native vegetation, biodiversity, flooding, bushfires and the treat of building on sacred aboriginal land".
Ryan Nelson

Ian Rogers
They are probably going to start intimidating you real bad to sell that land. Be careful desu
Wyatt Allen
Tell them “i know you dont care about the usefullness of the land so cut the crap. Casinos and hotels dont need to be built on useful land. Just look at vegas” then accuse them of trying to screw people over and demand half a million.
Luis Williams
Yeah, its always the same playbook they use, but its highly effective.
Sadly the only way forward is to out-jew them...beat them to the punch. Find some chink or other investors....start a "costal revitalization zone" get all landowners to sign on, each pledging some amount of money upfront and offer to deed restrict land to development zones control. Get some large real-estate companies that build malls / resorts / hotels to pledge building in zone. Bring plan to local gov meetings, talk about how much tax base will increase in zone...talk about how much money could be put into creating habitat sanctuaries....imply that gov workers don't actually care about environment / racist. Have "development zone" committee offer to fund politicians 'fact finding mission', offer to take them to other successfully developed costal areas that use same concept. Essentially, free beach vacay for politician with COMPed sushi, etc.
