What Our Clients Say

The greatest compliment is a great testimonial of work done for a client. We appreciate being able to assist buyers and sellers in all of their real estate needs, and below are a sampling of our reviews and words from our clients.

I wanted to say thanks to both Twila for doing such a great job on helping my husband and I sell our land in Centennial Ranch. It was such an amazing piece of land that we would have loved to keep, but hope that the new owners can make better use of its beauty than we would have been able to. Both of you made the whole process seamless and kept us very informed throughout it all. From the bottom of our hearts...Thank You!

My experience with Hayden Outdoors was really great and fun. I called them up (Westcliffe, CO office) from out of state, told them what I was looking for and they lined up quite a few houses for me to come and look at. My first contact with the Westcliffe office was with Lisa Frank. She worked her tail off trying to find the perfect house for me. Her partner, Twila Geroux, who was also looking very hard for me, then she contacted me with a brand new listing. I looked at that house and was thrilled. I bought it shortly after seeing it. Twila also put me in touch with a lending agent who made financing a painless experience. The closing went very smoothly. Both women I dealt with at Hayden Outdoors are not only the friendliest gals I've ever dealt with but are also extremely wonderful, very knowledgeable and they made searching for and buying a house a relatively easy and fun experience. If I ever have to move locations, I will definitely use Hayden Outdoors again thanks to these two gals. They take customer service to a whole new level. In short, you folks are lucky to have them working for you and should be very proud of them.

Re: J. Gregory (Greg) Liddle
Hayden Outdoors

We owned a tract of land, which was listed for sale with a local realtor for over a year, with very little activity. The original listing agreement had expired, and we were in process of re-listing the property. This area had been "hard hit" by the depressed economy and was in an area of very little sales activity. lt had been discussed, with some of the owners and the previous agent, that the asking price needed to be lowered by approx. 20%in order to get it in line with area appraised values and to generate some interest. I had met Greg through a mutual client, and was aware of his reputation for being able to move properties. I called Greg to discuss, and it was decided to move forward. We agreed to list it with Greg again at the original asking price, then consider lowering the price in a short period of time if there was no activity. Within 2 weeks of signing the listing agreement, Greg called and indicated that he had found a buyer and would forward the purchase contract. The transaction was closed on a timely basis. I would definitely recommend Greg, and plan to utilize his services again when the opportunity arises.

The purpose of this letter is to recommend and congratulate the Hayden Outdoors Team, headed by John Leo Hayden and Dax Hayden for the successful sale of the Dunne Valley Ranch.

My name is Steve Dunne, President of Dunne, Inc. the owner of the 21,000+ acre Dunne Valley Ranch located on the Oklahoma border south of Dodge City, Kansas. The ranch has been in our family since 1941 and after much soul searching my two brothers and eight cousins came to the conclusion that holding on to the ranch for prosperity sake created more potential for family strife than selling. Since none of us had any interest in the cattle business it was just too valuable of a piece of property to be split amongst literally dozens of future nieces, nephews, grandchildren, etc.. As one might imagine, this was not an easy decision. Our goal was to keep part or all of the minerals, and to sell the surface. When looking for a broker to list the property, we wanted to be sure that they would reach out nationally, if not internationally. In addition we required someone familiar with ranches and ranching, not just a broker willing to sell it for the lowest commission. My research pointed to Hayden Outdoors for their recent sales in the area, like The Box Ranch. I contracted Hayden Outdoors and they came and met me in Wichita.

We listed with Hayden Outdoors and they began an extensive marketing campaign. The ranch was shown to 20+ potential buyers over the term of the listing, and John Leo Hayden kept me informed of showings, potential negotiations and of course all offers. The land was listed for eighteen months and a successful sale was closed in August of this year. Like any good broker, Leo brought me every offer regardless of the amount, but where Leo rose above the typical broker was his advice to me on those offers. Instead of encouraging me to take the first low ball offer that came in the door to make a fast (and sizable commission), he would say “Steve I am telling you your ranch is nicer than that, it is worth the money you are asking!” and by golly after lots of blood, sweat and tears we got damn near all of it!

Ultimately we ended up with top dollar for the surface and kept all the minerals for future generations. John Leo Hayden, Dax Hayden and the entire Hayden Outdoors team worked tirelessly and greatly helped in selling the property. I will recommend Hayden Outdoors to my friends who have farm, ranch or recreational land to sell.

Regards,

Steven W. Dunne

This is a letter of referral for Eric & Kerry Cromer. We looked on the internet and searched for a rural Kansas Realtor; we came across Hayden Outdoor's and saw that they were listed as the number 1 broker. We were extremely pleased when they came out walked the property, took photos and movies of the property. They discussed all the options with us, listing price and explained the procedures of selling our property. We selected them to sell our 46 Acre Property just outside of Great Bend, Kansas (Mystery River Property). We listed with them on Thursday and Friday they sold our property. They got us a contract for the full amount. Wow, wasn’t quite expecting it to sell so soon. They have contacts!

We previously had talked to a realtor in Great Bend and they wanted to list our property for $100,000.00 less than we felt that our property was worth. That is when we contacted Eric & Kerry Cromer. When they came out they appraised our property as the same price we were considering, before we told them what we wanted for our property.

They kept in constant contact with us through closing. If we had any questions we would just call their cell phones.

We were thrilled with their productivity & professionalism. We could have listed with the other realtor and lost $100,000.00. THANK YOU ERIC & KERRY!

If you want action on your property we would recommend that you contact them and put them to work for you.

Twila is an outstanding realtor and a great person - she went far and above in helping us to find our dream home in Colorado. And despite a difficult seller, Twila was able to pull everything together for us. We were very happy with her professionalism and results.

I wanted to send you a note to more formally thank you for your support in marketing and selling the Buckman mountain property in New Mexico. As you know, this was my second experience working with you and your professionalism and dedication were every bit as impressive on the sell side as on the buy side. In my mind you again went well and above any expectation I had, beginning with the thoughtful and organized approach to marketing the property and finishing with the impressive efficiency of the closing process. In between, further examples were equally if not more impressive. I was expecting that given the time of year and the remote nature of the property, it would be late spring before any realistic opportunity would arise but when you had an interested buyer, you were willing (and able) to move mountains to keep the transaction moving. In this case, mountains of equipment (GMC, Polaris, ski-doo) to get the prospective buyers in to see the property. Incredibly impressive indeed and when you add the level of communication throughout the process, it couldn't have been a better experience for me.

Thanks again Greg for going the extra mile. You will be at the top of the list for any referral as well as when that time comes for me to find that dream property in the future.

Kind regards,

Ken

09/03/15 - Great Communication - J. Gregory Liddle

I would like to compliment you on your service of my recent purchase organized by Hayden Outdoor Properties. I found a New Mexico ranch on the web page and easily navigated to contact Greg Liddle. Since initial contact, I was exceedingly impressed with Greg. He followed up and kept in contact with me. It was through his persistence that I have come to own this great ranch. Greg proved to be knowledgeable and was always extremely friendly. The transaction was so smooth that it was obvious that I should list a Kansas whitetail property that I want to sell with the Hayden's. I hope to have a similar experience with Kerry Cromer.

Greg has kept up with me long after the sale and the only question I have now is how many friends can one man make. Greg provided the best personal service I have ever received in a multitude of real estate dealings I have had in my lifetime. He is a credit to your organization and you are to be commended.

Sincerely,
