Farm Management
Maximize Your Farmland Investment with Oakridge Realty & Auction
Since 1986 Oakridge Realty & Auction Company has offered professional real estate sales, auctions, and appraisals, and now we have expanded to a complete range of agricultural services for landowners. We now offer professional consultations and farm management.
Mission
Owning land has always been a great investment. Whether it was passed down from previous generations or purchased by you, land is one of the best assets you can own. Not only does it give you a tangible asset, a consistent return, and great potential for appreciation, land has always been a good hedge against inflation. At Oakridge Realty & Auction Co., our mission is to help you maximize your potential profit and stewardship of owning farmland, while leaving the day to day operations with us.
Landowners who do not personally farm their land can benefit greatly from our personalized, professional management service. As farm asset managers, we will represent you using our hands-on business model to meet all of your goals. Not only do we understand your personal and financial goals, we understand your concerns as well. We address each with a careful hand and an overall emphasis on soil stewardship, production, marketing, accounting, and communications. You will appreciate our accurate, consistent on-the-farm supervision, and assurance that your best interests are represented.
Objectives
The first step with each client is to determine the individual short and long term goals/objectives. A land owner may specify multiple objectives to their overall plan for their farmland and it’s management. Based on those goals, Oakridge Realty & Auction Co. will oversee all aspects of managing the property.
