I'm sorry, I just don't see what the point of renting land is. I realize that it's flat, but it will take you a total of 30 minutes to clear a large area of forest, and it's free. Plus, why would anyone risk getting their build repo'd if for some reason they can't log on that week? I'm sorry, renting land just seems pointless. Selling it 100% down would be a much better choice in my view.
