We are so thankful we chose Cord Hesseltine for our realtor when we decided to list our 800-acre ranch near Oconto. His knowledge of farming/ranching was an asset when it came to understanding the value of our land that was free of thistles and cedar trees. He understood the value of our underground pipeline and cross fencing as well as the dollar value of what our property had to offer the potential buyers that he brought to view our property. Cord is an honest man that has life values that we admire. We have other land to sell in the future and we definitely will use Cord 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!

AgWest Land Brokers conducted a land auction for The Minden Exchange Bank & Trust Co., Trustee for the Jennie Palmblade Testamentary Trust. The Axtell land auction was well advertised and a good crowd with a lot of interest was in attendance. Joel Grams, Farm and Ranch Specialist, did a very professional job representing the Jennie Palmblade Testamentary Trust real estate. There were no questions or clarification addressed during the auction. AgWest Land Brokers were well prepared for the closing, which took place twenty-one days ahead of the closing date.

My wife and I found the AgWest Land Brokers and in particular, Jeff Moon, to be most cooperative, friendly, and informative during the whole process of selling some of our farmland. While it was and is a difficult time with crop prices, land taxes, and other farm expenses to sell farmland it was an arduous time to find just the right buyer, but Jeff hung in there until a buyer was found and the entire selling process completed. We would recommend AgWest Land Brokers and Jeff Moon to anyone considering selling or buying property.

Well over a century ago, my great-grandfather purchased land-locked, undevelopable, prone to flooding, wooded land in Kansas to divide up into parcels for each of his many children. After ownership was passed through multiple generations, the land is still growing trees, providing refuge for wildlife, and most is still owned by descendants of my great-grandfather. My small family branch inherited two small pieces of land.

I first spoke with Mikayla Boge over two years ago. Since I live in California, I needed a reliable, trustworthy, knowledgeable, patient, boots-on-the-ground kind of agent who could help us learn more about these properties and potentially help us navigate a sale from afar. Mikayla was always accessible, responded immediately, never said a question was silly, and always treated us with the utmost respect. If she did not know the answer immediately, she would always find out and promptly reply. Her followthrough was impeccable.

It is safe to say, these two small parcels of land are not particularly valuable and would not build an agent’s resume. However, from our very first conversation, Mikayla impressed me with her positive attitude, knowledge of the area, her creativity, openness to explore, and her honest willingness to learn all about these two land parcels. This was not going to be an easy sell. At every turn in the road, Mikayla personally uncovered old county records, maps, easements, and steered us to trusted legal advisors, escrow, and title officers. Mikayla was always willing to make the “hard” phone calls and constantly negotiated in our best interest.

Recently, the two parcels sold. Mikayla worked to complete these sales for over two years and never once made us feel that the size of the properties was not worth her time. I cannot give enough praise and thanks to Mikayla for her tireless efforts resulting in happy and very appreciative clients.
