Well I'm not an Islander but I do have alot of family there. Some of
the off-islanders in the family recently bought just under 50 acres of
shore front property near Cape Spry (not far from Souris, south east)
for about $1000 an acre. This was farmland and there isn't much
development in the area. If you were looking for something with a
cottage/house on it in or near a tourist area you can look forward to
much higher prices. The other thing is that off-island land owners must
pay double land taxes on the Island. This is being fought but I'm sure
the government will keep the policy.
Scott.
