Luke and his team at United Country Hawkeye Farm Management and Real Estate did a first rate job selling our Iowa Farmland. We wanted someone we could trust. The farm had been in our family for several generations, held a very special place in our heart, and it was very important the sale was handled with care.

Luke recently represented me and my husband in the sale of my family’s farm in Dallas County, Iowa. The farm had been in my family for generations, and the decision to part with it was an emotional one for me. From the very beginning, Luke showed that he understood the sentimental value attached to the property, and approached the situation with empathy. This sensitivity set the tone for a partnership that was built on trust and respect. Luke is a true professional, and his knowledge and expertise dealing with farm sales in Iowa was evident as he guided my husband and me through the process. Selling farmland was entirely new to us, and he patiently took the time to answer every question we had, no matter how trivial. This commitment to our understanding not only gave us confidence but also showed his dedication to providing exceptional client service. His patience and educational approach was invaluable, allowing us to navigate unfamiliar territory of selling farmland with confidence. In the end, thanks to Luke’s dedication, expertise, and support, we were able to find the right buyers for my family’s farm. If you are in search of a realtor who is knowledgeable and professional but also patient and empathetic, we wholeheartedly recommend Luke. He turned what could have been an overwhelming and daunting experience into an easy and successful sale.

I’ve been extremely pleased with Luke Nissen’s Services as our land specialist. Our family farm in Eastern Iowa involved considerable differences of opinion between various siblings on how that value should be transferred. I doubt our farm was unique, as it’s extremely complicated to figure out how to settle the parent’s estate in a way that addresses various expectations. Most of the siblings felt that an outright sale was appropriate, but a farming sibling believed he needed to keep the farm in his operation. Luke related with those on the farm, as well as the non-farming siblings, and was able to work between our opposing expectations. He spent countless hours mediating a solution that was equitable and handled all of those exchanges in a professional and gentlemanly manner. We were extremely appreciative of the way he managed to bridge the gap in our family and allow us to close the transition in a way that worked for all of us and honored our parents’ wishes.

My wife and I can’t say enough good things about working with Luke on buying our first farm in Southern Iowa. This was a huge decision and lifelong goal for us. From day one, Luke brought a level of knowledge, experience, and professionalism that made what could have been a confusing process feel simple. With his farming background and passion for hunting, Luke was the perfect guide for buying an ag/recreational property. He understands the land, the Iowa market, and what buyers like us are looking for. His attention to detail was top notch, and he often had answers before we even asked. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to walk us through it. I’m proud to call him a great friend. If you’re looking for someone who truly knows ag and rec land and will go above and beyond, Luke is your guy. Thanks, buddy, for helping us find a place we can build memories for a lifetime.
