Our character has been forged through the years as we have come to konw that our success depends on how the land is cared for. Landowners are the stewards of wildlife, food supply, open spaces, and opportunity. We find no greater reward than bringing a successful real estate transaction together and believe there is no substitute for boots on the ground, sincere relationships, and a quality team. We understand the emotional and finan-cial impact this process has to the Buyer and the Seller. Charlie brings an unmatched skill set to the transaction with his background in corporate land management; production agriculture; his volume of real estate transactions; and the distinction as an Accredited Land Consultant.

Profession-al video is appropriate for some properties, please ask us how to partner in the up front cost which are credited at closing.

the BROCHURE Like two ranches, no two ranch brokers are alike. If you are interviewing brokers, as you should, ask them ques-

tions about how they prepare and present information about your property. How can a broker be effective at mar-keting your property if they don’t know important details such as water and production; boundaries and history; easements and improvements; hunting and fishing.

Powers Land Brokerage, llc strives to gather due diligence at the onset and uses industry leading technology to represent the information visually. This allows us to capture and engage the Buyer or their representing Broker. Early information also helps to prevent a Buyer from walking away during the in-spection period and damaging the prop-erties marketability.

Our brochures use professional photog-raphy, graphics, and layouts that are the next best thing to being on the prop-erty. The imagery creates a feeling of being there, while conveying the important features that differentiate it from competing properties. The narrative details are easy to read and understand so that discerning Buyers can act and not question.

A SAMPLE BROCHURE IS ENCLOSED

the INTERNET A robust web presence is essential to decreasing time on market and increasing competi-

tion among Buyers. Our industry leading website not only represents your property with edge to edge photography and interactive mapping but also captures Buyers as they download bro-chures. Here is one of our many trade secrets, as soon as a brochure is downloaded an auto email notification to Charlie which triggers a phone call real time to the inquiry.

We drive traffic to your property detail page through e-blast marketing, social media, print media, and relationship brokering. We use Facebook, Twit-ter, Linkedin, and Vimeo.

Your property is not only marketed at www.pow-erslandbrokerage.com. We also feed our listings to 200+ affiliated sites so that if a Buyer is seeking prop-erty with your attributes they will see it many times in many places.

PREPARING TO SELLFAMILY, TAXES, AND FINANCES- Planning out your family’s financial goals and evaluating potential tax

consequences can’t be overstated as an important step in preparation. Talk with your accountant or financial plan-ner as there are many strategies to maximizing the retention of your hard earned investment dollars. Powers Land Brokerage will integrate your properties marketing plan accordingly. This can be an emotional experience and as a generational ranch owner himself, Charlie Powers, understands the importance legacy properties mean to every member of the family. We have found that early and often communication can help diminish friction as the process unfolds.

GETTING READY FOR SHOWINGS- It is our policy that a Broker will be with all prospective buyers who visit your property. Work with your Broker to identify the best features of your property so the marketing reflects those incredible moments you cherish, prospective Buyers will too. Your property will show best when it shows pride of ownership, however this is not to say it has to be immaculate. A good Broker will gather water rights; leases and gov-ernment agency agreements; soil surveys; mapping of improvements; easements and encumbrances; and production records. Your help in locating these documents or providing your points of contacts will prove to be a big benefit to representing your property in the best light possible. This is a team effort.

SEE THE TABLE OF CONTENTS ON THE ENCLOSED BROCHURE

Trusting your most valued asset to a Broker is a decision that determines market reach as well as the expe-rience you personally have with the sale process. It is important to have a “partnership” relationship with your Broker as many decisions must be made along the way and a lot of information needs to flow from you through your Broker to prospective Buyers. Powers Land Brokerage, llc is on the same level as other top tier regional bro-kerages as we use a similar marketing mix both in quality and distribution. We do like to think we do it a little bit better. Another area we stand above our competition is the communication you can expect from us and the affili-ates that participate in moving the ball froward from the sales concept to the closing table. Experience and atten-tion to detail is what can make the difference in getting to the finish line. Anticipating hurdles and opportunities is another arena where our competition looks to Powers Land Brokerage as the industry leader. You are invest-ing a lot of money in the brokering of your property. Are you getting the Broker/Owner as your “listing agent” or are you being assigned a sales associate from that firm.

PRICING, OFFERS & POST SALE- Brokers will try to buy listings by recommending a list price higher than the market will bear. This is often counter productive as a general rule because frequently a Seller will net more on the sale when priced right rather than priced high. When the offer(s) do come in there is more than price to consider and this is where a good Broker really pays off. We recommend engaging your legal and tax counsel as a part of your team. An inspection, or due diligence period, will follow until the earnest money becomes non-re-fundable and the parties proceed to closing at the local title company.

ETHICS- When you hire a Broker your are entering a Principal-Agent relationship and you are accountable to what your Broker does and says on your behalf. Charlie Powers is an Accredited Land Consultant which is the trademark of Brokers that know what they are doing. Does your listing agent have the proven experience and is that person regarded as one of the best in the industry? Powers Land Brokerage, llc has not only adopt-ed the National Association of Realtor’s but also the Real Estate Land Institute’s Code of Ethics. It is very im-portant you trust your most valued asset to a Broker who believes in and practices an ethical code of conduct.
