What Our Clients Say

"It has been our dream for several years to own property in the Centennial valley. Without Jaci this dream never would have become a reality. Her hard work, knowledge and zeal made our transaction easy. My wife and I have purchased several properties in our lives but we have never had a realtor that worked as hard as Jaci, and it is rare to find anyone as helpful, knowledgeable, and motivated as she is. It was a wonderful experience, and we look forward to working with her again in the future."

In April 2012 my wife and I started searching for a ranch in northwest New Mexico and/or southwest Colorado. We both were familiar with the area and liked it very much. Our search started using the internet. In a few weeks we identified several potential properties for sale in the area. Two of which were listed by Greg Liddle of Hayden Outdoors. Greg was contacted and we scheduled a visit. I had given Greg a long list of questions that needed answered by arrival time. As we pulled up to the gate there was Greg sitting in the driver's seat of his Polaris Ranger 800 crew, ready to go. Not only did he have a nice folder to hand me with excellent maps and answers to all my questions, he had also packed a lunch for us and a cooler full of water and Gatorade. What a great day we had. Greg knew the ranches like the back of his hand. We spent several hours that day touring the hills and valleys of each ranch. Greg was the consummate professional. Being an avid outdoorsman like myself, he keyed in on the features we were most interested in. I deal with a lot of professionals in my business, but none better than Greg. We really like the two ranches Greg showed us that day and told Greg we wanted to make an offer, but needed answers to another long list of questions. Greg never batted an eye, just smiled and said you will have everything in one or two days. True to his word he emailed us a response to all of the questions the next day. We then made an offer with several demands, such as a survey of each property. Once again, Greg smiled and said I will get back with you soon. In two days he secured everything we asked for. I truly believe Greg sees every obstacle as an opportunity. As we closed the deal for both ranches, I became aware that Colorado does not let the new owner carry over deer tags from past owners. I was alarmed and called Greg and told him it was important I have at least one Colorado deer tag. He just laughed and said I already secured one for you. He knew what I needed before I did and already had it lined up. I then had one more big favor to ask of him, my dad who is 87 wanted to come out elk hunting that fall and I could be there due to my business travels. Greg about fell over with joy when I asked him if he would take my 87 year old dad elk hunting on the ranch for me. Not onlly did he take my dad out hunting, he called in a beautiful 6x6 bull that my dad harvested the second evening of their hunt. I can assure anyone and everyone that deals with Greg Liddle of Hayden Outdoors that you will not find a better individual who truly cares for his clients and works very hard to satisfy every concern that comes up in a real estate deal. I never heard one complaint from Greg in all my dealings, he knows what it takes to satisfy customers and is willing to go the extra mile. My wife and I feel lucky to have met Greg and the Hayden Outdoors team. If we were ever to purchase or sell another property, Greg would be my first call. Mark R. Houser CEO Shores Lift Solution

“Great Attitude! Greg was everywhere at hunting shows and internet! Greg was very knowledgeable! Really made the difference for us! Greg is the Jedi Master at Ranch Sales! We could not have gotten out price and closed our sale without him!” Jean Sawyer-Rosas Dripping Springs Ranch

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

Wow. Hayden Outdoor Realtors. Not enough words to express our appreciation. We decided to sell our 8 acre 16 year ranch, and hurriedly got it ready for sale. It was listed with another agency who only utilized MLS listings. Well MLS is only available to realtors, not the public. Three months went by and only one viewing, no contracts. When our listing contract was up we decided to go with Shad Sheldon and Hayden Outdoor Realtors. So glad we did. Our listing was placed on over 1,400 sites nationwide. Thirty-one days later, our ranch was SOLD !! If you want professionalism in the sale of your home, and sold quickly, Hayden Outdoor Realtors is the way to go. Shad took care of all closing documents and necessary actions. All we had to do was “sign on the dotted line”. We are very pleased. ~Butch and Kate Gilliam

Justin, I thought you were great and would definitely refer you to friends or family. Your knowledge of the area, the recreational opportunities in Nebraska and near the property was very valuable. Thanks again for your help in acquiring my new ranch! Best, Marvin
