"I’d like to comment on Brian Haugen and his LANDPROZ team. It really was a pleasure and a relief to work with him and his very professional approach that offered light years advantages over doing it alone. Brian originally was engaged to provide farm management services for the family farm and he found qualified farm operators to lease at fair rental rates and annually managed it and gathered valuable data with annual reports on the leased cropland. The farm management information and production data that was gathered while leasing the cropland was extremely valuable when it finally was decided to sell. Brian and his team put a sales program together with a very well-presented digital marketing package and worked their strong networking buyer connections and ultimately did a successful auction of separate land tracts which attracted favorable sale prices. Brian’s professional recommendations including an appraiser and closing agent/attorney helped immensely to move seamlessly through the process. If you are considering how best to manage your farm or sell your farm or both, and you like dealing with enjoyable, knowledgeable, fair, professional people, I’d recommend starting with a conversation with Brian Haugen to discuss your situation and find out what LANDPROZ can do to help and I’d predict success for you too.
