The Impact of COVID-19 and Economic Policies on Nebraska Farm Real Estate in 2021

I could not have asked for a better sellers agent than Mikayla Boge. Being a first time seller, I had a lot of questions and she was there every step of the way. Going above and beyond during the entire journey from fielding multiple offers to the closing process. She had us under contract within a week and closed within a month! I would highly recommend her for all of your real estate needs.

I thought purchasing a property might be a huge hassle. WOW, was I wrong! Working with Jeff Moon was a great choice. He was very responsive to my questions, concerns and requests. He researched everything I requested and the information he provided to me was timely and accurate. My experience working with Jeff was very positive and I would not hesitate to use his services again.

We were part owners of our family farm.  We put the farm up for sale and worked with AgWest Land Brokers every step of the way.  My brothers and I live on the East Coast, but the communication and access we had was phenomenal, and we never felt the distance.  Anytime we had a question, we could contact them and received immediate attention.  Every week I received an email keeping me up to date.  Forms would be sent via email to be signed, and I was impressed at how smoothly and rapidly things proceeded.  The professionalism and concern for each family member was very much appreciated!

After interviewing numerous land brokers, we found the AgWest Land Broker representatives to be extremely professional, accommodating, and friendly. Clayton Esslinger did everything we asked of him and then went above and beyond. His persistence in selling our property paid off and we got the outcome we were hoping for. Thank you, Clayton – you have a great future ahead with a fine company!

Neva MankerNebraska

We’re please Joel represented us when we decided to sell our farmland. Joel was professional in his dealings, effectively worked through the issues and maintained on-going communication. Closing went without a hitch. Just wish we owned more land for Joel to represent us in selling.

I highly recommend utilizing AgWest Land Brokers and Jeff Moon for the sale of agricultural property. Working with Jeff on the recent sale of our late father’s three farms in Central Nebraska was a very positive experience. Jeff went out of his way to answer all of our questions from when we started researching options on how to sell the farms to the end of the closing process. Jeff’s personal touch and recommendations made what could have been a stressful process seem routine. Many thanks go to Jeff and his team for all the work they did to ensure a successful outcome.

Kent Peterson

I recently purchased an irrigated 80 through Jeff. He was awesome to work with, very easy to communicate with and answered any questions I had. I would highly recommend Jeff and AgWest to anyone looking to buy or sell.

Chad RoumphNebraska

I was very pleased with the job AgWest Land Brokers did in working with me on my last land purchase. They were easy to work with and kept me informed every step of the way. They were very informative about the land and made sure I felt good about the purchase. I look forward to doing more business with them. Thanks!

Mikayla Boge and I just recently closed our first deal together in SE KS. Mikayla was quite likely the most involved realtor I have ever done a transaction with. This is extremely rare because Mikayla was the SELLER’S AGENT. I absolutely cannot thank Mikayla enough for her strength and professionalism. The role she played in getting this deal done is unheard of from a seller’s agent. To say she went above and beyond is an understatement. Ultimately, all parties walked away from this transaction satisfied and in good spirits. I would wholeheartedly recommend Mikayla Boge to anyone needing a realtor’s services, and I truly look forward to working with her again.

When my three siblings and I made the decision to sell the remaining parcels of our family farm in Burt County, we engaged Jeff Moon as our broker.  Even though he now resides in Phelps County, he had familiarity with land types and values in Burt County.

My three siblings and I agreed that Jeff conducted our business in a professional, prompt, and efficient manner and was knowledgable when we presented questions.  Since we four live in three states, Jeff conducted a number of successful Zoom meetings to facilitate the process.

He is personable, approachable, and we trusted him completely.  Since most of us could not be present for the closing, Jeff made the road trip to finalize the sale.

I would not hesitate to ask for Jeff’s leadership again when it’s needed.

Lynn EmburyNebraska

I was pleased with the process in which the real estate I was marketing was advertised, and eventually sold. Considering the economic conditions experienced in 2020, a buyer was found and the transaction closed. Jeff Moon was very professional in his attempt to find a buyer prospect and close the transaction in a timely manner.

Alan SongsterNebraska

Kraig did a great job with the selling of our farm. He did especially well with my parents. That was greatly appreciated, Kraig.

Jamey BeckNebraska

Kraig Urkoski was easy to work with. He would call and personally talk, and inform us of the status of the land we were interested in. The turnover process was smooth. We are very pleased with the entire process.

Ted DexterNebraska

From the first day we talked to Jeff Moon, he was in constant communication with our family.  Jeff put all expenses (including lawyer fees) on an itemized printout for simplicity.  At closing, there was some final paper signing and separate equal checks for the 3 siblings.  The auctioneer worked it perfectly.  Very professional team.  Thanks again.

 

Scott MonkNebraska

Kory just started with AgWest Land Brokers and I immediately wanted him to handle the sale of our farm. Kory was there every step of the process, answered every question that we had, and addressed every situation that was presented through the process. I couldn’t be happier with the way Kory performed! I expected a lot from Kory since I had known him since childhood, but the level of professionalism and service he provided was second to none! Thank you Kory for all that you do! I will refer you to all!

Ryan MillerNebraska

Jeff was great to work with. Very professional and made it an easy process the whole way through.

Justin TrompkeNebraska

Jeff was great to work alongside in the sale of our land. He was easy to communicate with and made sure to keep us informed every step of the way.

Chad & Misty HirschfeldNebraska

“We are so glad we chose to list with AgWest Land Brokers. They communicated regularly with us and committed to the process until we were able to sell our home at a fair price. We would very much recommend them!”

Dawn LewisNebraska

I worked with Kraig Urkoski on the purchase of a farm in Merrick County. With this being my first adventure in to buying ag land, i was pretty nervous about the whole process. Luckily I was able to work with Kraig. The process was great, communication from the AgWest team kept me in the loop the entire time. Kraig continues to be a great resource for me as I get going on my farm investment journey.

Nick WardNebraska

Jeff did a great job communicating with us via phone calls, texts, emails and in-person visits.  Jeff was also very good at parlaying our hard to utilize portion of real estate with our  neighbor’s ground, increasing the value of both  and making a better property for our new neighbors.

Robert HaagNebraska

I made the decision to sell my 240-acre family farm. Jeff Moon, a land broker at AgWest Land Brokers, was recommended to me by a business associate. Most of my communications with Jeff were by emails and phone conversations. He gave me updates weekly as to the progress made in preparation for the farm auction, and he efficiently took care of all the necessary details. He organized advertising the farm auction through radio, newspapers, and webpage ads. I appreciated Jeff’s professionalism in working with prospective buyers. The farm sale was well attended with many buyers present. Jeff conducted a good auction, and I received a great price for the farm. It was a good day!

Pamela J. DaunerNebraska

It was a pleasure working with AgWest Land Brokers during the purchase of our Franklin County ranch during these uncertain times! I highly recommend AgWest Land Brokers and their professional land brokerage approach.

Jason AndersonNebraska

I was very satisfied with Clayton representing my ground.  He was very professional, worked very hard to make sure I understood all the steps, & kept me informed every step of the way. He did not take any step of the process for granted.  I felt he was doing the best for me that he possibly could.  He was very honest and up front with me.  I am very happy with him.

Lee HardyKansas

As an “out of area” client I was fortunate to have Jeff Moon as my agent, his regular communication, persistence, and attention to details made for a successful sale thank you, Jeff!

Susan MaasColorado

Kraig Urkoski was my agent. He did a very good job on follow-up calls and answering all questions. It always felt like you could call him and ask questions and you were not wasting his time.

PKG EnterprisesNebraska

I worked directly with Kraig Urkoski for the Merrick County auction.  He provided the sale information and answered my questions quickly and easily.  I would work with AgWest Land in the future.

Tim JuranekNebraska

It was a well-handled & professional experience in talking with Jeff Moon.

Brenda FickenscherColorado

Jeff Moon and AgWest Land Brokers were a pleasure to work with. The communication, timing, and thoroughness that was exhibited by Jeff and his staff were terrific. I would recommend AgWest Land Brokers and Jeff Moon to anyone looking for real estate services in central Nebraska.

Jeff RyanNebraska

Kraig Urkoski and I have established a very good working relationship over the past five years. Since meeting Kraig, he’s been my “go to guy” should a piece of ground in the Central Nebraska area come up for sale. Kraig has always been supportive of my thoughts and price point. It’s nice to have a person to go to, ask his opinion/thoughts on the ground, and get an honest assessment. If you are looking at buying/selling farm ground in Central Nebraska, you need to talk with Kraig.

Mike DouglasCalifornia

I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Bryan. From the very beginning he made me feel at ease and answered all my questions and concerns. Even though I was a little hesitant on selling my farm, he reassured me that the process would be simple. He went above and beyond all my expectations. He contacted many potential buyers in a short period of time because he knew I didn’t want this sale to be a long, drawn-out process. He was prompt and professional and got me the price I wanted. He was by my side from the beginning to the very end and I couldn’t have gone through all this without him! He’s GREAT!
