Lately, I’ve been having conversations with several landowners who are considering selling, and I keep hearing the same questions:
“What can you do differently for me than the other agents?”
Or…
“I’ve already used multiple Realtors, and my land just sat. Why should I try again?”
So, I figured this was as good a time as any to address it publicly and reintroduce myself as your local go-to land girl. 🌾🤎
When you choose me to represent you in a land sale, you’re getting someone who has put in the work to understand what makes land valuable — because land is NOT just land.
From the very beginning of my career, I’ve learned that every piece of land is completely unique. You can’t recreate it somewhere else, and no two properties are exactly alike.
There are SO many things that need to be considered when determining the value and marketability of a piece of land:
🌳 Timber value
💧 Water availability & well potential
⚡️ Utilities — and how accessible they are
🌱 Soil type
🏡 Septic feasibility
📜 Restrictions & easements
🐄 Pasture quality and livestock potential
🛣️ Road access
🏗️ Buildability
📍 Location and surrounding development
…and so much more.
Just like with a home, the details matter. And honestly, with land, there can be even MORE to consider.
Understanding land value is incredibly important, and I can promise you that I have done the groundwork.
But knowing the land is only half of the job.
The other half is marketing it.
We see homes all over social media every single day — professional photography, multiple angles, videos, walkthroughs, aerials, floor plans, and content designed to actually make someone STOP scrolling.
But far too often, land listings get treated differently.
One photo.
Sometimes an old aerial pulled from another website.
Or a picture of a bunch of trees where a buyer has no idea what they’re even looking at.
I don’t believe land deserves that.
My land listings receive the same level of investment and attention that my home listings do.
Because whether you’re selling a $30,000 tract or hundreds of acres, when you hire a Realtor, you’re trusting them with something valuable. My job is to make sure your property is presented in a way that helps the right buyer understand what makes it special.
And that goes beyond pretty pictures.
I want to understand the questions a buyer is going to have BEFORE they ever step foot on the property.
What are the potential costs of getting utilities to the property?
Who can they call locally to get the work done?
What does the survey show?
Where are the boundaries?
What are the restrictions?
Are there easements?
What does the plat look like?
What can — and can't — someone realistically do with this property?
And most importantly…
Who is actually getting out there and experiencing the land?
We all walk through our homes. We notice the kitchen, the bedrooms, the backyard and the updates.
But with land, someone needs to actually walk it.
Take the videos.
Understand the terrain.
Show the buyer what they’re really purchasing.
And have the documentation ready — plats, surveys, legal descriptions, restrictions, easements and anything else that helps a buyer make an informed decision.
That’s the kind of service I strive to provide.
I’m not saying this to tear down another agent. There are a LOT of great Realtors out there, and every agent has their own strengths.
But if you’re considering selling land, interview around.
Ask what your agent is going to do differently.
Ask how they determine your land’s value.
Ask how they plan to market it.
Ask how well they know the property.
And take a look at their past work.
**The proof is in the pudding. 😉
As for me, I’m proud to say that land has become a huge part of my business, and I genuinely love it. From small residential tracts to larger acreage, I love learning what makes each property unique and finding the person who can see its potential.
So if you’ve got land to sell, or you’re simply wondering what your property could be worth, call your local land girl. 🌾
I’d love the opportunity to put my boots on your property and get to work. 🤎
