Why Use an Accredited Land Consultant (an ALC)?
Accredited Land Consultants are more than just real estate agents… they’re land real estate experts.

Accredited Land Consultants are more than land professionals. They’re the most accomplished, the most experienced, and the highest performing land experts across the country – whether they specialize in agricultural land, timberland, ranch and recreational properties, or vacant land for development.
Known in the marketplace as “ALCs,” these credentialed professionals leverage their in-depth understanding of the land market to create solutions, add value, and build wealth for their clients.
With an Accredited Land Consultant, you gain peace of mind that the largest investment you may ever make is in the hands of a skilled and experienced professional. When you’re buying or selling land, you need an Accredited Land Consultant.
