First question is if they or the realtor can provide a drill log. Basic info if it was done right showing depth of well, soil encountered, where and how much water was found by the well driller. Barring that or perhaps in addition talk to a well drilling company or other professional to do an evaluation for you. A water test for quality/purity is also a very good plan. Don't be scared off by wells just do the due diligence thing, and make sure it has enough all through the year which isn't the case in dry summers on many wells out there. If you are interested in a property you can always make an offer and make this a "subject to".
its gonna take a life time to hunt and fish all this
