About Us

Farms.com Real Estate is an organization dedicated to marketing farm and rural properties across North America and around the world for our members. Our goal is to offer you a complete compliment of tools to assist you whether you are buying or selling farm real estate. Farming is a niche market and finding real estate salespeople who understand farming can be a challenge.

In 1996, a group of real estate salespeople who specialized in farm properties set out to change the way a farm was sold. They believed that even though real estate salespeople compete with one another, both sides benefit if valuable and timely information can be shared.

Our History

1996 -- Three guys and an idea, started with humble beginnings as a not-for-profit association.  LandMarketer created a network that brought real estate agents together - buyers and sellers of agriculture and rural properties. Adding increased value to this robust network are farm-specific business professionals in areas such as financial planning, legal services, and lending.   
 
1997 -- LandMarketer developed its own FLS (farm listing service) paper updates of farm listings for all members. Published first catalogue of farm properties for sale.

A group of progressive entrepreneurs got together to launch Farms.com (and eHarvest.com).
 
1998-- Developed a database program available on CD for viewing listings - updated on-line. Made the leap of communicating by fax to communicating via email. 

1999 -- LandMarketer changed from a not-for profit association to a for-profit organization.

Launched Landmarketer.com.
 
2000 -- Launched the new LandMarketer.com website which allowed members to use tools for managing their own listings and communicating with one another.

Farms.com and eHarvest join forces to become a leading agriculture web portal.
 
2006  -- LandMarketer.com is purchased by Farms.com,  adding new technology, increased marketing resources, and increased web traffic.

2007 -- LandMarketer.com is relaunched as Farms.com Real Estate.  It features a new look, a more stable technology platform, and increased brand awareness with a name that more accurately reflects its services.

Farms.com Real Estate continues to expand its service offering, delivering effective farm property marketing to those involved in the agriculture real estate industry.
