Vince Badinski  Assoc. Broker Serca Realty

Selling farmland is a big decision. When you’re working in farm realty you need to know more than just cost per acre. You’ve got to know what has gone into the soil. The blood sweat and tears that worked it. The generations that built it and the motivations behind the purchase or the sale.  Vince will also touch on how technological advancements, such as digital platforms, drones & other technologies to survey and map land will shape the future of pricing farmland.

 
Raised on a still active 4th generation farm near St. Brieux, SK, Tyler & his brother Vince understand the process and consideration involved in expanding an operation, as well as the proper preparation and emotions involved in selling a farming operation.
