Meet your guide to Country Property, from Northern to Central California
Terry Hundemer and the team at Chickering Co. California Land and Ranch Brokers aretrusted guides to unique California Ranch and Recreational Properties in California.
California is home to some of the most spectacular ranch and recreational properties in the West…we know the landscape well.
From the Sierra Nevada to the Pacific Coast, The Chickering Company has spent over 35 years brokering California ranches, mountain hideaways, coastal retreats, fishing and hunting lodges, and more. In addition, we locate and evaluate properties throughout the West.
Our clients count on our specialized knowledge, experience, and discretion to guide them to exceptional properties and represent their interests in real estate transactions.
While our specialty is California, we also assist clients in finding properties in Nevada, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, New Mexico, Colorado, and British Columbia. We maintain constant contact with the major ranch brokers in the West, trading information as it becomes available, which offers the best chance to find unique properties not easily found, and often before the general public is aware of them.
For more information or a list of references, please call (530) 913-8095 or inquire [email protected]
We also engage in private transactions involving sellers who wish to convey title to their property outside the public marketplace to an exclusive clientele. In these situations, we can bring in one of our portfolio clients to purchase the property privately. We then assist the seller and buyer by coordinating the many due diligence investigations and overseeing their interests during real estate escrow.
