LAND BROKERAGE & AUCTIONS
Over 50 years ago, we began developing the unique infrastructure, collaborative culture, and marketing strategies that now deliver industry-best outcomes for our clients. Peoples Company’s experienced land professionals specialize in traditional listing services, public auctions, and online auctions nationwide. Clients rely on our team to determine and implement the proper strategy to distinguish a client’s holdings and ensure maximum exposure. LAND MANAGEMENT
Nothing matters more to us than getting our clients the best possible return in a socially responsible manner. Peoples Company land managers utilize advanced technology to document and analyze productivity, soil health, conservation practices, and capital improvements. Our model identifies progressive farmers who are aligned with the landowner’s goals and objectives. The farmers that fit this model do not require constant production decision oversight. They embrace the best practices and emerging technologies to increase farm productivity and the returns for both the landowner and themselves. AGRICULTURAL APPRAISAL
Our appraisal team has the skill, experience, and resources to generate the most accurate valuation of your asset. Our proprietary database guarantees a level of financial integrity that your land deserves. Peoples Company specializes in conducting valuations on agricultural land, recreational land, agribusiness properties, and commercial-agricultural properties. We can implement our high-quality services almost anywhere in the country. Our highly qualified, certified appraisers have expertise in sales and transfers of real estate, mortgage financing, investment analysis, internal asset valuation, divorce settlement, estate planning, acquisition and condemnation, litigation, and property tax appeals. CAPITAL MARKETS
The Peoples Company Capital Markets team works diligently to facilitate transactions in the robust farmland asset class. Every transaction has a buy side and a sell side. There is a need for efficient capitalization and most importantly, access to deal flow in a thin market and highly specific asset class. ENERGY MANAGEMENT
The Peoples Company Energy Management group is at the forefront of the energy asset management industry, providing the highest caliber services coupled with leading-edge technologies performed by the absolute best people in the industry. Peoples Company is a one-stop shop for all energy management needs. CROP INSURANCE
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) administered Federal Crop Insurance program makes U.S. farmland truly unique compared to other investment grade asset classes across the globe. Crop Insurance provides a minimum annual revenue guarantee that significantly reduces risks for farmland operators and by extension, for farmland owners. Created in 1938 as an element of agricultural policy responses to the Great Depression, Federal Crop Insurance is a permanently authorized program administered by the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation. The Land Investment Expo is the cornerstone our aggressive marketing tactics, with an innovative team of ag real estate sales professionals striving to connect landowners and investors in over 20 states. The Peoples Company real estate brokerage is licensed in Alabama, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, Wisconsin and Wyoming.
