Barns, shops, and outbuildings

A metal building can be the reason you buy — or a liability if it was built without a permit on a bad pad.

Northland acreage listings love shop photos. Ask how the building is powered, whether it is heated, whether the slab drains, and whether the county knew about it. Lean-tos and leftover agricultural structures need a condition look just like the house.

If your plan is a business, RV storage, or an accessory dwelling, go back to zoning before you write the love letter.
