Water
Many acreages rely on a well or a cistern. Ask about water quantity and quality, and consider a water test as a condition of your offer. Find out how water is delivered or treated, if applicable.

Rural basics
What to check on rural property
Septic
Most rural homes have a private septic system. Ask about its type, age and service history, and consider having it inspected before your conditions are removed.
Access and roads
Check how the property is reached year-round, who maintains the road, and whether there are any easements or shared driveways.
County vs municipality
Rural properties may fall under a county, rural municipality or town, each with its own zoning, bylaws and taxes. Confirm permitted uses — such as animals or a shop — with the local office.
Financing can differ
Lenders can treat rural land, larger parcels and farm property differently from homes in town. Talk to a lender early about what they'll finance and what they'll need.
