Your Acreage Is Unique. Let’s Market It That Way.
Selling an acreage isn’t like selling a house in town. It takes strategic pricing, specialized knowledge, and targeted marketing to reach the right buyer. From hobby farms to luxury estates, we understand what today’s acreage buyers are looking for—and we know how to make your property shine.
- Highlight What Makes Your Property Special: Size, privacy, outbuildings, scenic views, or self-sufficiency potential—we know how to showcase the features that matter.
- Access to a Qualified Buyer Pool: We market directly to acreage-ready buyers in Edmonton, Sherwood Park, Strathcona County, Tofield, and beyond.
- Customized Staging & Listing Strategy: Acreages require a different approach. We’ll guide you through preparing your property for market—from drone footage to zoning info.
What to Expect When Selling Your Acreage
From well and septic inspections to understanding county-specific zoning and permitting, acreage sales come with extra layers of complexity. That’s where we come in.
We help acreage sellers navigate:
- Market pricing based on land value, outbuildings, and utility setup
- Targeted listing strategies for niche acreage types (equestrian, hobby farms, estates, etc.)
- Buyer due diligence (permits, boundaries, environmental concerns)
- Timing your listing with peak buyer demand
Practical Considerations When Selling Your Acreage
Selling an acreage is a different ballgame than selling a home in town. There’s more land, more complexity, and more questions from buyers. To avoid surprises and get the best return, it’s important to prepare your property—and yourself—for the process.
Here’s what to keep in mind:
- Zoning and Permits
Buyers will want to know what’s allowed on your property. Is it zoned for animals? Can it be subdivided? Are there any restrictions? Having this information ready up front can make your listing more attractive and avoid delays. - Septic, Well, and Utilities
Unlike urban homes, rural properties often rely on wells and septic systems. These systems should be inspected and, if possible, certified before listing. Be ready to provide water quality test results, septic maintenance records, and utility info (gas, electric, propane, etc.). - Property Boundaries
Many buyers will ask about fencing, easements, and exact lot lines. If you haven’t done a recent survey, now’s a great time to consider one—it can help build buyer confidence and streamline the closing process. - Outbuildings and Land Use
From barns to workshops to greenhouses, every outbuilding adds value—but only if buyers know what they’re getting. Make a list of features, square footage, and any upgrades or repairs you’ve done. Highlighting usage options (e.g., hobby farming, equestrian, storage) adds even more value. - Access and Road Maintenance
Buyers will want to know who maintains the roads (private vs. municipal), whether there’s year-round access, and how snow removal works. These little details can influence decisions—so having answers ready is key. - Curb Appeal… But Bigger
First impressions still matter—only now it’s across 1, 5, or even 20 acres. Trim trees, mow grass, tidy outbuildings, and make pathways visible. If buyers can picture themselves on the land, you’re already halfway to a sale.

Client Testimonials
Greg Litwin of the Lorenz Team was our Realtor recently. He was professional in all aspects of helping us sell our acerage and then helping us down size to a condo. He presented a complete marketing package, excellent drone pictures of our home, walked us through every detail and took the initiative when an issue arose that solved our problem overnight. We highly recommend Greg and the Lorenz team and so appreciate the great care he took with us.
