Old grainery's are not really of much use if they are fixed up and kind of left the way they exist and were built for. Most have wood floors and walls sectioning off the building into rooms like a house. OK for small item storage I guess. But pretty inconvenient for heavy large item storage, or work area that needs to be spacious and open. I can see your reasoning for it to be just dismantled. Exterior barn siding (1X12 and weathered) is what people really want and go for. Not sure if thats what you have or not. If its slatted 1X4's or 6's, or lap board, or T&G siding, nobody is really going to want that. And the rest of the lumber such as rafters, stringers, and studs are just plain old second hand lumber once salvaged, and not worth any premium dollars as (barn) wood. I'd offer it to be torn down for half the lumber. Meaning you keep half the lumber straight down the middle. They in turn get the other half for tearing it down. If there is 2X10's or 12's for floor stringers, or long dimensional lumber in its framing construction, you should get some takers with this offer. When tearing a house down, there is to much waste material and you earn every board you salvage. Its hard to give a house away to be torn down. But a barn or grainery that is not all rotted to heck, pays out alot better in lumber for your time invested. Be careful about letting someone do it that is just wanting the barn board siding. Because, like others have said, they may agree to tear the whole thing down, and just take the siding off and be GONE.
