OT - Cistern

The question is, what is a cistern like this worth? Anything?

I also have a pressure tank and water softner that came with the house. Should I package everything together and try to sell it? Sell them seperately? I just don't want to be stuck with this darn cistern! I plan to sell the house in a few months. Any suggestions?

Around here the city water systems need softeners, so why would you sell that? You would need it.....

If this is a big round poly tank, it would be worth $100 - 300 to a farmer as a sprayer tender tank. The pressure tank & softener you'd have to give $50 back to get a farmer to haul it away for you.....

Just different condions in different parts of the country, how it s here. Likely doesn't help you with however things are where you are.

The water meter is $7700 and another estimated $10 - $15,000 to run the main to the front of the property. Then another $3000 to run a 2 inch line on up to the house! All told, somewhere between $20 and $25,000. But, like I said, the well didn't produce enough to maintain the household. The water district has me by the man jewels.

But the post below got me thinkin...I may drag it home, bury it and plumb my gutters into it and use it for lawn water etc. This rural water is a little pricey to try growing a suburban lawn. : -)
