I highly recommend this company. Luke S was great to work with. Always courteous, positive and professional and kept us well informed throughout the process. We were able to monitor the auction with the youtube link Luke provided, which was awesome. And we were very pleased with the results. Thanks Luke and ILC !!!

Iowa Land Company did a great job selling our 55 acre property in Carroll County. Luke Skinner had a sensitivity to the history of land ownership in the area, and the team did a good job reaching out to local land owners. Luke handled seller input and questions from two coasts. Our local contact, who attended the auction, was impressed by the professionalism of the event, and we were excited to watch it via YouTube.

My mother passed away in 2021 and left my siblings and I a farm in Monona County, Iowa. I was appointed executor, and after talking with a couple land brokers and visiting their websites, I wasn’t convinced we had the right people to handle the sale. With 5 attorneys involved in the multi-state estate process, 3 siblings and working myself, I needed the sale to go quickly, professionally, and smoothly. With a stroke of serendipity, I found a postcard from Iowa Land Company in my mother’s mail. I visited their website and placed a call to Luke Skinner. He returned my call immediately and the rest is history. We met at the property, signed the Listing agreement, and within a week, Luke brought us a premium offer for one of the parcels enabling us to sell the rest of the property at a more reachable price for the intended audience. He brought the second offer for the rest of property in under two weeks, fielded multiple counter offers and extensions and shepherded the process through closing. He found the surveyor, worked with our attorney in Iowa, the abstract company, the buyer’s agent and responded quickly to my many texts, phone calls, and emails. Overall we closed well above ask. I can’t express the relief I felt when it finally closed just after Christmas. I highly recommend Luke and Iowa Land Company; he didn’t disappoint, was super responsive and professional and made me laugh a few times when I surely needed one.

I am immensely grateful that I found Luke Skinner to assist me in the sale of my farm. I live in a different state than my farm. I frequently receive brochures and other printed material from people who would like to help me sell the farm. I received one from Luke. When I contacted him, he struck me as trustworthy and efficient. That was proven to be true through a very long sale process. I was offered a price by my tenant farmer which seemed too low, so I went to Luke to ask what the true value of the farm was. Luke did a valuation comparison, and I was able to see that the offered price was quite low. For Luke’s fee, I received an additional $100,000 from the sale price. One parcel had a title issue, and the closing was delayed. Luke kept me informed about what was happening, and on one occasion said it was time for me to step in and ask questions. I appreciate his knowledge, his attention to detail, and I recommend him without reservation if you want to sell your farm.

I was the trustee for my late father and mothers estate in Carroll County, IA. After talking with the other heirs in the estate we decided to sell our north 80 in Carroll County, IA. After making the decision to sell the farm I was in charge of selecting the firm to conduct our sale. I had followed Iowa Land Company for a few years and was very intrigued with their style of business and marketing capabilities. I read through their past reviews and was impressed with how they conducted business in the past. Luke and Matt met me at the farm to discuss our options and how to break the farm up to maximize price. I knew right away Luke and Matt were our guys to conduct this complex sale. Matt and Luke were very responsive during the marketing process, the entire process from front to back was very stress free and rewarding. Our sale was a huge success, they exceeded our expectations and I will be referring them to other farmland sellers in Carroll County. You guys are exceptional!

We decided to sell our Century farm in early November and on December 31st we had the money in the bank. Given this quick turnaround, they clearly were very effective in getting the message out to prospective buyers. We are very pleased with the professional approach of Matt and Luke Skinner and we highly recommend the Iowa Land Company. Every marketing strategy that they used was effective in getting and exceeding the that we had for the sale. There was excellent communication before, during, and after the sale. Given the personal magnitude of the decision to market our property, this high level of communication was very important. We could not be more satisfied with our decision to list our farm with Iowa Land Company.

I worked with Luke Skinner at the Iowa Land Company regarding auction of a farm located in Mahaska County Iowa. Luke did an excellent portfolio of the farm in the major magazines and local publications. He was punctual in returning any telephone calls or emails. We had 14 people listed as possible buyers on the sign in sheet the day of the auction. We got $2500 more per acre than what had been estimated the farm would sell for. I found Iowa Land Company honest and a company of integrity with excellent follow through with each step of the sale and with the final closure also. If I had to sell another farm; Iowa Land Company would be my auctioneering company of choice!

I worked with Luke and Matt on the sale of some of my land in Buena Vista County.

We had a great experience with Luke and the team at Iowa Land Company. They are diligent and responsive to any issues. They provided an excellent service and communicated very clearly with us about our property, offered great advice, and eventually helped us sell and close our farmland in Dayton. The closing attorney Luke recommended to us for the sale was also able to aid us with miscellaneous legal matters which was a plus. Taking care of 2 birds with 1 stone. I highly recommend Iowa Land Company. Thanks Luke.

My entire experience with the Iowa Land Company was very impressive, from start to finish. We contacted Iowa Land Company and the very next day Luke and Matt traveled many miles to the property located in extreme Western Plymouth County Iowa. They were very knowledgeable and easy to work with. I highly recommend this company, so grateful we chose them. They were always willing to go above and beyond my expectations. This company gets 5 stars on every aspect on the sale of our 2 properties.

Luke was easy to work with. He sold my land quickly for the price I was asking. Other realtors advised me my land was worth less than half of what I was asking but Luke was able to sell it for what it was worth.

Luke met me the very next day, and we spent unhurried time walking the 40 acres. As an outdoorsman himself, Luke pointed out numerous animal signs I had overlooked. I had several questions about the cabin on the property, and his attention to detail and personable manner made it easy to make decisions. He was able to answer all of the questions that day.

Since a group of people was selling this great piece of land, Luke had many tasks to coordinate in our land negotiations. He proved to be trustworthy, efficient, and readily available. As a busy person, my phrase is, “I want things done yesterday,” and again, Luke was there to make it happen. I now own my dream land, and my wife and I plan to enjoy peaceful weekends there with our family. Thank you, Luke Skinner and Iowa Land Company.
