  • Brokerage.
    Over a century of combined experience means we can expertly guide and represent landowners who wish to sell or exchange their properties and businesses. We have encountered most situations that could arise in a transaction and are creative and tenacious at making transactions work.
  • Entitlements.
    Our
    land advisors have outstanding relationships with local governing units, which makes the process of gaining entitlements far less stressful for landowners and developers.
  • Development.
    As land developers ourselves, we understand the process; know how to optimize value; and work with governing bodies, legal and accounting experts, and other professionals to yield best results.
  • Buyer services.
    We are trusted advisers who serve as a knowledgeable source of critical information about the market and valuations. We aim to provide more than just the basic knowledge about properties; create comprehensive, understandable material that is useful to you; offer our own customized website; utilize a variety of other listing and marketing sites and methods; and create specific marketing plans focused on getting properties in front of ideal purchasers.
  • Negotiation and Closing Coordination.
    Our experts work hard to negotiate on your behalf and make transactions work. We think creatively and make every effort to bring buyers and sellers to an agreement and through a successful closing. We will initiate the closing process on your behalf and keep track of the progress so you don’t have to.
  • Investment Analysis.
    Analyzing your investment for optimal return can be complex and includes a number of factors like taxation, timing, and entitlements. Our
    land advisors will bring clarity to issues so that you can make your best decisions.

    Multiple team members must work together for projects to be successful. Our staff collaborates with an array of professionals to ensure your project’s timeliness and success.
