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.

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!

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!

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.

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.

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!

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.
