This paid Site Spotlight is sponsored by Zomer Company Realty & Auction.

A public auction will be held Nov. 11 north of Canton for nearly 440 acres of multiuse land, available as up to seven separate tracts.

Zomer Company Realty & Auction is organizing the sale, which will be held at 10:30 a.m. on site at the property.

“I feel this property provides many opportunities for several different types of buyers,” Mark Zomer said. “It is hard to find this kind of quality in contiguous parcels of land.”

The property is on the north edge of Canton with several tracts offering strong development potential, Zomer said.

“With the future growth of Canton and the surrounding towns, these properties are in a prime location,” he said.

“This is a very unique opportunity as large tracts of adjoining land such as these are not often available and especially on the edge of Canton, South Dakota! If a farmer, investor or developer is looking for a large tract of land in one location, this is a rare opportunity to purchase just that.”
