I recently sold my convenience store business with Ross Poyser.  He did a great job communicating and keeping me up-to-date on all information.  Ross was very thorough throughout the entire process.  I highly recommend him and AgWest Land Brokers for your real estate needs.

Kraig Urkoski does an excellent job. He is always fun to visit with and willing to answer any questions you have.

Mikayla helped my family and I sell some land and she was fabulous. We are out of state and she walked us through all the steps, was in constant contact, and a pleasure to work with. Could not recommend more!

My Experience with Jeff Moon and AgWest Land Brokers was absolutely awesome! Jeff helped us sell two farms in the past few months. He was extremely creative, proactive, and very eager to please. Both farms received multiple offers within two weeks and Jeff was helpful in assisting us in the selection of the appropriate purchaser for a very clean closing at a good price. I was astounded by the quality of AgWest Land Broker’s service.

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

We can’t thank Kory Koch enough for helping us, even with being out of state.  Very professional, kind and respectful. We sold our land very quickly.  Kory put in a lot of time when we couldn’t. Thank you so much!

Kraig Urkoski was great to work with and was always available to answer my questions.

Dan MeyerNebraska

“It was a pleasure to work with AgWest Land Brokers. They stayed in touch throughout the process. The property sold quickly. Living two states away from the property, I was concerned about the process – but it was quite smooth. My thanks to AgWest Land Brokers.”

We decided AgWest Land Brokers were the best fit to market our 98 acres.  They were always available by phone, text, email and personal visits to assure us in our decision and to answer any and all questions.  In our case, we had three co-owners, so they were fielded questions from all of us in a prompt and considerate manner.

In addition to our agent, we were extremely impressed with the marketing of our land.  My top marketing favorite was the online drone video of the land.  The video really captured the uniqueness of our property we had always appreciated.

I would not hesitate to list with AgWest Land Brokers again.  Honestly, I don’t know how our land sale could have been promoted any better.

Marvin NethNebraska

It was a pleasant experience talking to Jeff, and I would recommend him.

Michael F. NovosadNebraska

A few months ago we contacted Jeff Moon in regards to selling our co-owned family farm. We found Jeff to be very knowledgeable, courteous, and friendly. Within a week or so of listing our property, we had multiple offers and an acceptable offer was put together in a very timely manner. Within 4-5 weeks our property was listed, had an acceptable contract, and closed all due to Jeff’s effort. It was a very easy transaction. I can recommend Jeff Moon at the highest level. Thank you Jeff!

Rich WittmussNebraska

Clayton worked with us not only as a professional but as a friend. He was always encouraging and helpful with all of our questions. We would recommend him to anyone needing to sell their property or just teaching them the process. Clayton always took the time to take care of us, and he always had a very becoming smile.

Linda EsslingerKansas

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!

 

Shane RippenNebraska

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

Very professional and patient throughout the process.

Danny TrauschNebraska

Kraig was prompt in returning all calls and provided any information needed for the purchase of the farmland, which I purchased.  I would definitely use Kraig in the future.

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 AgWest Land Brokers 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. AgWest Land Brokers were always accessible, responded immediately, never said a question was silly, and always treated us with the utmost respect. If they did not know the answer immediately, they would always find out and promptly reply. Their 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, AgWest Land Brokers impressed me with their positive attitude, knowledge of the area, their creativity, openness to explore, and their 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, they personally uncovered old county records, maps, easements, and steered us to trusted legal advisors, escrow, and title officers. AgWest Land Brokers was always willing to make the “hard” phone calls and constantly negotiated in our best interest.

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

Elizabeth SaltzmanCalifornia

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

It was a bittersweet experience to sell our family farm. The farms were homesteaded in the 1800’s. The family is growing and the income was decreasing with each generation. Kraig was great during the whole process. The communication between us was fantastic. The auction itself was very professional and garnered our family the most for our great grandparent’s land, work, and sacrifice for their heirs.

Richard BaeseNew Jersey

Kraig, We wanted to express our gratitude to you for the good sale of our farm & the price of the farm. You were very professional and anytime we had a question you were there to answer our questions. Also, thanks to all the people from AgWest Land Brokers.

Connie ZiembaNebraska

Jeff Thank you for helping us with the buying and selling of our land. We think you did a “super job” thanks again!

Dwight & Brenda SchneiderNebraska

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.

Elly ClaussenKansas

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

Brenda FickenscherColorado

We were lucky enough to get to work with Jeff Moon on our recent land purchase.  Even though he was working for the seller, he was greatly helpful in answering our many questions.  We are brand new to owning farmland, and Jeff broke down every aspect to the very basics.  He treated us with respect, and we hope to work with AgWest Land Brokers in the future.

Eric HuserNebraska

Kraig and his team at AgWest were super to work with on the sale of our farmland.  We had 8 family members with undivided interest.  From start to close – he kept it simple, stress-free, professional, and very knowledgeable.  I would call on them again.  Thank you so much!

Kathy Yutesler

Kraig and his team made a 3-way 1031 exchange happen seamlessly without any issues. We were even able to close early. It was truly a very great experience.

Brandon HeggeNebraska

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

Kraig was very knowledgeable and helpful. He continued to provide advice and assistance even after closing. He was the consummate professional.

Joseph KenneyFlorida

I had a great experience selling a section of grass using AgWest as my realtor! Jeff Moon and Clayton Esslinger were my listing agents, and they really went to work and did a great job selling the property! I gave them a price I wanted to obtain for the section, and they advertised it well and even used a drone to make a video to promote the land. They generated a lot of interest in the property and within ten days, we received an acceptable offer. I was totally satisfied with the effort and would use AgWest services again.

Dennie & Joyce LofgreenKansas

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!
