Guidance for Buyers

The Bosque County land market is a balanced market with a slight advantage for buyers (18 active listings compared to 16 sales). The majority of the sales have been in the Meridian and Morgan area or in southern Bosque County close to Cranfills Gap. However, sales have occurred throughout the year across the county. Areas of Bosque County that support higher valuations are in areas where there is good elevation change and properties are easily accessible from the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, Waco, or Austin.

Guidance for Sellers

The Bosque County land market is active with more sales in the past year than we see in other counties. Elevation change, access to water, and ease of access drive ranch values up for sellers. This time of year is a good time to get the property ready for sale with pictures scheduled for late September/early October. Late August is a slow time for land & ranch real estate because:

• It's incredibly hot

• Many of the potential buyers are busy navigating the back to school transition and preparing for Labor Day weekend

• Most properties are dry and do not showcase their potential well after the warm, dry period we've experienced

About Story Group Land & Ranches

Story Group Land & Ranches has more than 25 years of experience helping buyers and sellers navigate Texas land and ranch markets through every type of market condition. We focus on clear representation, local market knowledge, and a straightforward process from first conversation through closing. As landowners, we understand that your property is more than just an investment - it's where your grandson took his first deer, late night campfire stories were told, your granddaughter learned to drive the tractor, where you sat back and watched the sunset over the pond, and all the moments that mattered in between. Our goal is to capture these memories and facilitate a smooth transition to the next owner.

As realtors, we understand and specialize in the business aspect of real estate. We understand how various factors like flood plain, road frontage, size and shape of a property, minerals, water availability, and many others affect the value of your property. When we represent you, we take the time to carefully research, document, and explain our recommendations to you as well as potential buyers.

Above all, you can expect honesty and integrity in all that we do. We put our family name on our business, which means everything to our legacy.
