If you’re buying or selling acreage in the Hawkesbury, here’s something you really need to understand!

Just because a property has high-voltage transmission lines running across it doesn’t necessarily mean the land underneath them is unusable.

In fact, depending on the easement conditions, you may still be able to:

✅ Graze horses, cattle and other livestock

✅ Maintain pasture and undertake agricultural activities

✅ Install certain fencing and irrigation systems

✅ Grow suitable low-height vegetation

But there are also important restrictions around buildings, sheds, excavation, machinery and tree planting.

And here’s where it gets interesting… 🤔

It’s not just about the size of the land. It’s about how much of that land is usable, what you’re legally permitted to do with it, and how those restrictions might influence future buyers.

In today’s Ask Greg Wednesday, I explain what acreage buyers and sellers should consider before making a decision.
