Your Guide to Land in the Missouri Ozarks
Hunting Tracts · Ranches · Farms · Timber · Recreational Properties
Justin Head & Ryan Record — Whitetail Properties Land Specialists serving Franklin, Gasconade, Crawford, Phelps, and Dent Counties.
Mission
We want the opportunity to assist when you decide to sell your property. Any agent can put a sign on a fence post. We’re landowners whose names have been in plat books for decades, personally signed at closings, hunted Ozarks ridges, and poured blood, sweat, and tears into our own dirt. We specialize in rural land transactions in the Missouri Ozarks and we LIVE IT every day. We work with both buyers and sellers across the full spectrum of land types our region is known for.
Hunting Land
Whitetail- and turkey-managed tracts, food plot programs, water access, and the kind of rolling timber and creek bottoms the Ozarks are famous for, selling farms in Franklin, Gasconade, Crawford, Phelps, and Dent Counties.
Recreational Land
Cabin sites, ATV and UTV land, fishing creeks, kayaking access, and weekend retreats within easy reach of St. Louis and Springfield.
Farms & Cattle Pastures
Working farms, hay grounds, row crop, and fenced grazing land — including legacy family farms ready for the next steward.
Timber Tracts
Hardwood ridges, pine plantations, and managed timber assets. We can help evaluate timber value before listing or before purchase.
Recreational Estates
Combined home and acreage, custom-built retreats, and full-package properties with cabin or barn improvements already in place.
Investment Land
1031 exchange targets, portfolio holds, and selectively curated off-market opportunities for qualified buyers.
