What Our Clients are Saying

I have been hunting for quite some time and have had some decent success while doing it. Through the graciousness of a handful of landowner’s, I have been fortunate enough to have access to some pretty good hunting properties throughout South Central and Eastern Illinois. As good of a situation as it was to be able to enjoy the great outdoors on these parcels of ground, there was one thing that was missing. For as long as I can remember, I have always dreamt of hunting land of my own. Something that I could call mine, where I wouldn’t have to seek permission from the landowner to alter the ground to enhance my hunting opportunities. I had been actively and seriously searching for this piece to call my own when I came across a post on Brandon Swartzlander’s Facebook page. Ground that had not been listed on the Whitetail Properties website as of yet and one that I thought was a perfect starter piece. I reached out to Brandon and the rest is now history. The ease in which this buying process went was due in large, to Brandon’s willingness to help out in any way. I highly recommend anybody who is looking for that property to call their own but isn’t quite sure where to begin, to reach out to Brandon. Thanks a lot, Brandon!! Now, let the real work begin. I am going to do everything within my power to turn MY piece into a Whitetail’s paradise and I don’t even have to ask for permission……just maybe some advice.

Grant was very professional and handled the sale of our farm for us expertly.We are located in California and he was always one step ahead of what needed to be done in order for the sale to close with ease. I only wish we had more farms to sell!

I would without a doubt or reservation, highly recommend Mark and Kyle Herr to handle the selling or purchasing of a property through Whitetail Properties. They provided timely information and follow up documentation to all our questions. They were extremely accommodating to our work schedule when it came to viewing the property. I found them to be very trustworthy throughout the entire process, so much so that I have already listed a separate property with Whitetail Properties and plan to list another in the future. They are truly one in a million in the realty business!

My family and I would suggest Brandon to anyone! We were able to secure a beautiful piece of land recently thanks to Brandon. He was truly a pleasure to work with. His one-on-one approach made us feel as if we were his only clients throughout the entire process. Not only was he professional, but also a great person all-around. He made the buying procedures incredibly simple. And that's what we hope for. If you're looking to purchase hunting land, give him a call!

I'm not one to readily give out complements but Dean deserves it. I've pursued multiple land opportunities in the area and Dean is by far the most diligent, knowledgeable and honest. I asked a lot of questions and Dean gave me the right answers, good or bad. He also went above and beyond to show the property and to make sure the deal closed, working closely (and leading) the title company. I recognize that my deal was a small transaction but Dean treated me like I was buying the King Ranch. I will not only recommend him to anyone else but I will explain that if they don't use him, they will likely be disappointed.

I wanted to let you know how much my wife and I appreciated working with Clint Stout to sell our property in Belmont County, OH. We hired Clint because we knew he would be able to properly feature a hunting property like ours. There were many obstacles presented along the way and Clint's true colors came through as concessions had to be made in order to close the sale. Clint is an honest and trustworthy person who has become a friend for life and we wish him nothing but success at Whitetail Properties and other future endeavors.

— Fred and Lisa van den Heuvel

Joe was very knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable in the deal. Me and my wife really like Joe and hope to keep in touch with him. I can not stress enough after dealing with 2 other Realtors, how Joe's knowledge and helpfulness was and is appreciated.

In starting the process of buying land hours away from my home, I was apprehensive. I was unfamiliar with the process as well as the area, and my first barrage of questions was all directed at Mike. He was swift and helpful with his replies, and he was able to lift many of my concerns with the venture by providing thoughtful and straightforward responses. Then when it came time to scout the properties, Mike was willing to hike through snow, mud, and brush in order to show me as many views as possible. Even though the parcel I purchased wasn't the largest, or the most expensive, Mike treated me with a care and consideration fitting a man of great character. He is a terrific realtor, which, given the scale of the transactions he facilitates, is an invaluable resource.

— Joshua D. Anderson

We would like to thank all of the staff at Whitetail Properties for the swift and easy transaction of our property. We would like to give an extra thanks to Matt Young for his help in explaining and answering all of the questions that we had. These words are not enough, but it is all we have.
