What Our Clients Say

“Nathan is probably best agent I have dealt with. Full execution of information and quickly” – Robert Shafer

I had a referral to Debbie Reed. I left her a message, she immediately responded and I had to look no further. Debbie was a great fit. I live in California and was selling the home I had bought for my mother. Debbie listed my house on a Friday and we had two offers on Monday. Debbie explained everything in a simple matter and very timely. She immediately responded whenever I had a question. I was never left sitting and wondering what was going on. The few items that needed fixed after the inspection were completed within the week, and I was even given options for who or how it should be done. I highly recommend Debbie if you are buying or selling your property, and to make things even better, she has a great sense of humor.

“Professional” and “competent” are two words that underscore the efforts put forth by Greg Liddle, Hayden Outdoors, for brokering the transaction for our 4620-acre ranch property in Las Animas County, Colorado. Greg took all of the time and put forth all the effort necessary to insure a prompt sale at the price we needed. Coaching us through the process there were several attributes he exhibited. First, he recognized that our property had the desired attributes to meet the potential Buyers needs and objectives. Second, Greg encouraged us as landowners to exhibit our property to it’s full potential by letting us know what the potential Buyer valued and how our property met those expectations. Third, Greg procured a fully vetted, capable Buyer to inspect, assess and ultimately purchase our property in a timely manner. Recognizing value, meeting Buyer and Seller expectations and facilitating the process are key components to any transaction. Greg Liddle accomplished all of these in a timely fashion with utmost professionalism and integrity. I would engage Greg’s services anytime I needed to sell a property that had recreational, hunting and scenic value to a potential Buyer. Greg gets it done!! Terry & Marcella Swanson Walsh, Colorado

"Zack, My Dad and I can't thank you enough for all the hard work, dedication and the time you spent in selling my father's ranch. Given some of the extra issues, like easements and 'as is', you brought us several potential clients and quickly got us a more than acceptable offer. You made it very easy for my Dad and I to sell the ranch, you did all the work for us, and we very much appreciate it. Closing was a breeze and you ensured that everyone was on the same page and all documentation was ready to sign, this was probably the most efficient closing that I've ever attended. We most definitely will suggest you to anyone we know who is selling or wanting to purchase a piece of rural property. As evidenced by this transaction you are an expert in your field and we were lucky to have you as our Realtor."

What really stood out was Jake was supportive of our decisions rather than talking us into something. Jake always responded to us kept his cool, was very supportive. I’d recommend him to anyone! Rebecca and Willy Clouse

[Justin Hertzel] had the listing that we were interested, and I was pleased with how thorough [he was]. I would definitely recommend [him] to others.

When you are buying or selling property, please consider Justin Hertzel as your broker. This gentleman is efficient, intelligent, and has not only integrity but a very good grasp of the market. He professionally went beyond what was expected of him. He has worked with several family members on various properties, and is certainly successful at what he does. We are pleased to highly recommend Justin. ~Vayden and Joy Anderson, Stromsburg, NE

I contacted Hayden Outdoors after researching their marketing strategy and observing the clientele they pursued. I was contacted by Dax Hayden and we discussed my ranch and a process for maximum results. I was assigned Jim Digby as my personnel realtor. Jim is an avid outdoorsman and understood how to market a high end stand alone hunting ranch. The clients he brought to us were vetted and motivated. This is the third project where we took property and developed it into a hunting facility. We are starting our next project and will be back with Jim and Hayden Outdoors. Note we sold our ranch at only 2% less than asking price. David Mitchell

Jade is as near perfect of a real estate agent as they come. I've bought and sold a ton of homes and worked with many realtors. Jade exemplifies what you want from an agent on communication, professionalism, and representing you as a client. He showed up to our listing appointment and listened to our requests and ran with it! He showed up for every buyer preview and walked them thru with the buyer's agent, and explained to them the uniqueness and value in our property and why. He even showed up at closing. I would highly recommend Jade in Nebraska over any agent.

I am writing this letter to commend Greg Liddle of Hayden Outdoors for his outstanding job of marketing and successfully selling my 4,325 acre property in Southeastern Colorado. Greg lives 7 hours away from the property by truck, but that did not deter him from frequently driving to the property in person to show it to qualified prospective buyers and other ranch brokers. Greg even drove to oversee the work of contractors working on the water wells, piping, roads, and so forth. When I’ve purchased ranches in the past, it was surprising how few agents and brokers took the time (and fuel) to meet qualified buyers at the subject property – I cannot imagine how a property could be sold for top dollar if a knowledgeable senior selling agent/broker is not present to point out a property’s strong features and expertly answer buyer questions. Greg took the time to explore the property from corner to corner before he took any prospective buyer on a tour – this ensured that he didn’t get lost or turned around when showing the expansive property. In my previous ranch buying experiences I was shocked at how often the junior person guiding the tour didn’t even know his way around the road system. Greg’s particular expertise lies in the area of game management. He worked tirelessly to search out the game trails and install game cameras to document the trophy big game present on our property. He coordinated “range management” to balance selective, limited cattle grazing with the food and water requirements of the game to optimize the condition of the property for recreation. By the time my ranch went under contract to sell, Greg’s efforts paid off by drawing 30” mule deer and a herd of approximately 80 elk onto the property. With so much of the surrounding territory overgrazed, it seemed like half of the elk in the county were finding their food on my property! (I already miss the place.) Greg frequently checked the game cameras for fresh images of monster bulls and bucks … by emailing these pictures to previous ranch viewers he was able to reinvigorate their interest and bring them back into the mix of potential buyers. He is proactive. He wasn’t just sitting around waiting for someone to write on offer! Greg respected my money as he would respect his own money. He recommended expenditures on only the improvements that were absolutely necessary to broaden the appeal of the ranch and maximize its resale value. On several occasions I asked his advise about certain improvements to enhance the property’s marketability. On most of those occasions he adviseagainst the expenditure. As a result of his efforts at spending my dollars carefully while also maximizing the property’s recreational value through game/range management, we were able to sell the property in October 2011 for more than its 2007 purchase price. We recouped not only the purchase price, but also the cost of improvement and the cost of carry, with enough left over to show a profit. Given the frothy real estate market of 2007 and the economic weakness of 2011, we were obviously pleased with this result. Other brokers I spoke with in the area were impressed with how many qualified showings Greg was able to schedule. It seems like everyone in the state knew of the listing. He was bringing in prospective buyers from all over the USA, and even had inquiries from overseas. I don’t know the details of exactly how Greg did that; I’m sure he could tell you. It was very obvious he didn’t just put the property on a website and wait for his phone to ring! Greg’s expertise also spans a working knowledge of state game and water regulations, legal aspects of the transaction, mixed use land optimization, neighbor relations and local community relations, and even weather considerations. Although my ranch sale was a cash/no contingency transaction, it was apparent that Greg has a working knowledge of recreational property lending sources – he was able to introduce a couple of prospects to a leading ag property lender. All of my experience with Greg is as a listing agent. However, if we decide to purchase another recreational property within Greg’s market area, I will probably utilize his services as a buyer’s agent, given his strong overall knowledge of the market and his insights into the “levers of value” for trophy properties.
