Testimonials

"When I began searching for a realtor, Chris was the only one who actually answered the phone-and he answered every time I called, always with professionalism and an eager attitude. From selling my ranch through a reverse 1031 exchange to negotiating the purchase of additional adjoining properties, he handled every detail with excellence. Chris not only met every timeline but also went above and beyond to round out the property for my family. His commitment, knowledge, and heart for his clients set him apart. I would highly recommend Chris and his team for any land transaction-simple or complex."

- Randell C.

“My wife and I just want to say a heartfelt thanks to Chris for helping us find our dream retirement / hunting ranch. Others tried to help but he was the best at really understanding and caring, about our needs. After finding us the perfect property he helped us secure the financing, found someone to clear the land and build roads, and recommended the contractor who built our “forever” home. We highly recommend him.”

- Bob and Cathy W.

 “5 Stars - Highly Recommend!
Elisa, Ethan and the team at Ranch and Hunting Land Realty helped us buy our dream home. This was the first time we had ever made a purchase of this magnitude, and they were incredibly knowledgeable and patient throughout the entire process. They answered our calls day and night, connected us with trusted inspectors and insurance agents when we didn’t know where to turn, and even went the extra mile to help us move in!
We are so grateful for their support. I 100% recommend everyone at Ranching and Hunting Land Realty—you won’t find a better team!”

“I had the pleasure of working with Ethan Clopton while looking for land around Brown county. Ethan showed me multiple parcels over a months time he always listened to my input on the type of land I was interested in and above and beyond to find places that matched my criteria without ever trying to push me in any way of settling for anything less than what I wanted. I ended up purchasing land in Rochelle and months after the purchase I can contact him and he helps me get in contact with contractors to build out a barndo. I can’t say enough good things about this young man but if I ever sell this place or buy another one Ethan will be my first call.”

“Chris, Elisa and Ethan at Ranch and Hunting Land have represented my wife and I on three properties (one sold and two bought). We couldn’t be happier with their services. They went out of their way to be available and responsive in a timely manner.
In addition, we have remained friends and get together for a few hunts a year.”

Sincerely, Andy and Kay A.

"I met Ethan and Chris five years ago on a property near Lake Ivie and we have worked together since. What I like about working with them is they are professionals. Their name says it all "ranch and hunting land". It's what they specialize in and there's nobody better in the central Texas area.”

“It was by chance we ran into Chris Roland with Ranch and Hunting Land Realty, LLC. We had been thinking about putting our small ranch up for sale, and after talking with Chris we decided to move forward. We soon met our sales agent, Ethan Clopton, who got the process started very quickly and did a fantastic job of getting our land sold. In fact, Ethan ultimately helped us to purchase a new home! Buying and selling property can be very stressful, but the communication and professionalism throughout both processes put us at ease with both of the transactions being a success! That chance meeting turned out to be a Godsend for us! We are so very grateful to have had these guys to work with!”

“I met Ethan after calling Ranch and Hunting Land Realty about a piece of land they had listed for sale. Both of us are an hour away from the property but Ethan was quick to respond and we set a time to meet. I arrived about 10 minutes early and Ethan was already there with the gate open. He was prepared and answered all my questions. I could tell he was courteous and well versed on all aspects of real estate. Yes, I purchased the property and Ethan was a big part of the sale. He was always on time, always willing to take my calls and always wanting to make sure I had the answers needed to get me to closing. If I had a Real Estate company, I would want him on my team. It was a great experience.”

“We want to extend our deepest thanks to Ranch and Hunting Land Realty and especially to Ethan Clopton for helping us find the perfect property. With Ethan’s guidance, we were able to purchase nearly 300 beautiful acres in Brownwood, Texas — a dream come true for us. Ethan was knowledgeable, professional, and incredibly patient throughout the entire process. He took the time to understand what we were looking for and worked tirelessly to help us find it. We always felt supported, and we truly appreciated his honesty and dedication. We couldn’t be happier with our new land, and we’re so grateful for everything Ethan and the team did to make it possible. We highly recommend Ranch and Hunting Land Realty to anyone looking for their piece of Texas.”

“I’ve had the absolute best experience working with Chris Roland. By the end of our first day together, I knew he was the agent I wanted to help me buy a ranch. He always does what he says he’ll do, answers his phone (or calls right back), and gives every question or concern his full attention—never brushing anything off. His integrity, responsiveness, and genuine care set him apart. I know we’ll be friends for years to come, and if I ever decide to sell, there’s no question—I’ll be calling Ranch & Hunting Land Realty.”
