STEWARDSHIP
by SHAWN PRICE of NO FENCES LAND CO.
In the ranch real estate business many times we refer to clients as landowners, but do they really own the land, or are they just stewards of the land for a period of time? As a “landowner” you really only purchase a bundle of rights associated with the land, with these rights and how you use the land determining if you are a good steward or not. Will you leave it better than you found it?
Stewardship can be accomplished in a variety of ways, mainly dependent upon your goals for what you want the property to produce. Timber and orchards will be thinned and maintained so that you will get the best production from the healthiest trees. A farmer may go to a no-till operation to improve soil health and production, take full advantage of rainfall, and create more nutrient-rich soil. The cattleman will control brush, opening up more ground for forage; he will keep the weed population under control so that the grass forage is increased because it isn’t competing for the same nutrients in the soil as the weeds. A rancher may increase watering sources so that the stock doesn’t have to travel long distances to water, burning calories and losing weight that you have been trying hard to put on them for sale. The wildlife manager managing for deer will always be evaluating the use of plants to see how the population is using the available browse; by knowing what is preferred browse you can tell when an overpopulation starts browsing less desirable browse, this lets you know that your carrying capacity could be too high and you need to reduce the population size, or implement supplemental feeding through food plots, or free choice protein supplementation.
The main thing is to be a good steward of what you have been entrusted with to keep. There are many resources available to help you be the best steward that you can be — contact your local NRCS (Natural Resources Conservation Service) office to get started down the right track. Like anything that is worth doing, you have to have a little “grit”. When you break down what “grit” is, turns out it is really nothing more than passion and perseverance. So, once you know your goals and find the property to reach those achievements, use the available resources, and turn your dream into reality.

How Good Conservation Practices on Your Land Can Improve the Value of Your Real Estate
by DARRELL HINDMAN of LIVING THE DREAM OUTDOOR PROPERTIES
Good conservation practices on the lands you own can increase your real estate value by improving the attractiveness and aesthetics of your propertyX, enhancing ecosystem health, providing eligibility for financial programs, and attracting environmentally conscious buyers.
How do good conservation practices increase property value?
1: INCREASE AESTHETIC AND RECREATIONAL APPEAL
Aesthetic enhancements: Everything you do on the landscape, from planting native species, to removing invasive species, landscaping, and creating and maintaining green spaces all contribute to a more visually appealing environment. In today’s environmentally conscious world, a well-maintained natural landscape is always more attractive to potential buyers.
Recreational value: Developing attractive amenities such as ponds, lakes, and stream access, as well as wildlife management practices that increase populations of whitetail deer, wild turkey, rabbits, squirrels, and birds can all substantially increase a property’s recreational appeal for hunters, nature enthusiasts, and lovers of the outdoors. And, depending on the suitability of your landscape, adding
features such as hiking trails, UTV and ATV trails, and birding trails may add that special appeal that a buyer is seeking.
Open space is premium: Studies clearly demonstrate that homes near open, conserved spaces such as parks, green belts, wildlife areas and state or national forests, have higher values. Buyers will pay a premium for properties with protected areas adjoining or nearby.
Views are golden: With environmental consciousness at an all-time high, potential buyers of your property are keenly interested in any views that can be had of lakes, streams and scenic vistas — such as a bluff over a river that offers a view across a broad landscape. Enhancing vistas by making open areas for easy access and supplementing vegetation with additional wild species that offer palettes of color year-round — such as native pine trees that offer greenery every month of the year — add to visual appeal. Dogwoods have showy blossoms in the
Good conservation practices on the land you own can increase your real estate value by as much as thirty percent.
spring, crimson leaves in autumn and red berries in the winter. An abundance of wildflower species are available that will keep an advancement of color parading from early spring until early winter on your property.
2: IMPROVE ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY
Higher quality land: Good quality conservation practices on your property can lead to several benefits such as healthier soil, cleaner water, and improved biodiversity, which will increase value. A decade ago, I watched an individual buy up several farms in northeast Missouri consisting of row crop fields and muddy ponds. The individual invested in planting native prairie grasses. Today he harvests the prairie, draws methane gas from the plants, which he markets, and has the biomass to sell as quality hay, too. Additionally, the ponds and lakes are crystal clear. He created farms of great natural beauty, unparalleled by anything nearby. His land values increased quickly and substantially.
Risks reduced: Implementing quality land management practices such as soil erosion control, natural flood control, and other ecosystem improvements can prevent long range environmental damage and lower potential costs for future owners. Good land management and good conservation practices are especially rewarding economically in areas prone to natural hazards.
Sustainable development: A wise land management practice in some areas is to cluster development on smaller plots of land, while preserving larger areas as open spaces which creates environmentally sensitive communities and areas. This parallels the idea of open space premiums. This approach can be particularly attractive to eco-friendly buyers who are often willing to pay more for what they want.
3: FINANCIAL AND TAX BENEFITS
Government programs: Numerous government and private programs provide financial incentives to landowners for implementing conservation measures, which will improve their property’s profitability. In Missouri, for example, programs offer financial rewards and tax deductions for conservation efforts.
Everything you do on the landscape, from planting native species to removing invasive species, landscaping, and creating and maintaining green spaces all create a more visually appealing environment.
Tax reductions: Donating a conservation easement may provide federal and state income and estate tax deductions, as well as reduced property taxes. This helps lower the overall tax burden for you as a landowner. Check with your state department of conservation, or department of natural resources for possible programs.
Long-term investment: For farmland and ranches, implementing regenerative practices improves soil health and can increase long-term productivity and sale value. These practices signal a commitment to sustainable agriculture that can attract buyers and investors. Additionally, studies show that good land management practices — as opposed to poor quality land management practices — can lead to increased land values by as much as thirty percent.
4: CONSERVATION EASEMENTS CAN DECREASE VALUE
Development restrictions: A conservation easement is a legally binding agreement between the property owner and a conservation agency that permanently restricts development on a given property. The value of
More than 60 percent of the land in the United States is privately owned, meaning that successful wildlife conservation and land management depends on private land stewardship.
the easement is typically based on the difference between the land's unrestricted value and its restricted value.
Lower market value: Because development rights are extinguished, a property with a conservation easement will have a lower market value than an unrestricted property. This can result in reductions in value as much as twenty-five to sixty-five percent, depending on the terms of the easement.
Long-term considerations: While easements offer tax benefits to landowners and ensure the land’s future protection, they limit opportunities for development and land use, which must be carefully weighed before committing to such program agreements.
5: STATE LAND POLICIES MATTER
Good management creates value: Well managed conservation policies generally increase surrounding land values through enhancing ecosystem services, creating new outdoor recreational opportunities, and boosting local economies through tourism development and creation of jobs. However, there is not always a direct relationship. For instance, a conservation easement on a parcel of land
may decrease its immediate market value, while, on the other hand, increasing the value of adjoining or nearby properties by preserving their scenic views and environmental benefits.
States’ wildlife rights: States are the primary entities that govern wildlife management and conservation on private land in the United States. With the exceptions of federal laws pertaining to migratory birds, threatened and endangered species, and interstate commerce of wildlife, states have very broad authority to regulate and manage wildlife within their boundaries. This state-based approach is rooted in the federalist design of the U.S. government and empowers state wildlife agencies to develop policies that address their specific social, cultural, and environmental contexts and concerns. Various states often develop different solutions to common wildlife problems, fostering experimentation and innovation. In the process, states serve as “laboratories of democracy” that provide insights for policymakers across the United States.
More than sixty percent of the land in the United States is privately owned, meaning that successful wildlife conservation and land management depends on private land stewardship. Private lands also disproportionately contain abundant water resources and fertile soils that provide important wildlife habitat. Because of this, many states have developed policies that encourage private landowners to conserve habitat, help manage wildlife populations, and offer public access for hunting or other forms of recreation. Thus, the very structure of our government encourages landowners to take care of their land through good management practices on their properties, and in return reap the benefits of these practices via personal enjoyment, stewardship awareness, and increased values of managed lands.
State policies often include a mixture of exemptions, benefits, incentives, and requirements to influence wildlife and land management on private lands. These policy tools often overlap across multiple programs. For example, states may provide special big-game permits to landowners, but require maintaining or improving habitat, or providing public access in return. States may offer landowners extended hunting seasons but require them to provide wildlife data to the state, conduct certain habitat management practices, or provide public access.
“ Private lands also disproportionately contain abundant water resources & fertile soils that provide important wildlife habitat.”
With environmental consciousness at an all-time high, potential buyers of your property are keenly interested in any views of lakes, streams and scenic vistas, such as a bluff over a river that offers a view across a broad landscape.
Science based management: Missouri is a leader in science-based wildlife and land management policies and practices. These policies are crucial for maintaining balanced and healthy wildlife populations, such as white-tailed deer, through data-driven decisions rather than political opinion, which is the case in most states. This approach has led to the successful restoration of many species, including wild turkeys and deer, and helps control threats like disease. It also supports economic benefits by fostering sustainable hunting and fishing — which generates significant revenue from non-resident hunters and guides — and creating significant economic impacts through permit sales, lodging, restaurants, and gear purchases. Missouri and other states in the Midwest offer reasonable costs for deer and turkey hunting tags as well. All of these factors combined contribute to increased land values for property owners utilizing good wildlife and land management practices. Furthermore, science-based conservation helps to protect Missouri's vast biodiversity and ensure the long-term health of its ecosystems, even as the landscape changes. All of this is made possible by an eighth of a percent sales tax, which the citizens of Missouri imposed on themselves.
Final thoughts: Justin Bruehl is a Land Agent for Living the Dream Outdoor Properties from Illinois. He bought a farm in south-central Missouri, which was located near U.S. Forest Service lands, the Ozark National Scenic Riverways, and Montauk State Park, for hunting and outdoor recreation opportunities. He contacted the Missouri Department of Conservation and requested assistance from a private lands management agent. With the science-based advice he attained, Bruehl began timber stand improvement work, applied prescribed burns, and cleared a few small areas for openings.
“Instituting good land management practices on my newly acquired farm produced immediate benefits,” Bruehl said. “Following the advice of the MDC private lands specialist was a lot of work but paid off handsomely. I increased the value of my farm and now have wild turkey and deer on my property. And, my 13-year-old son Jase and I took a double on long beards on the farm this spring. That memory is worth more than the price of the land!”

When people think of Maine they picture rugged coastlines, endless forests, pristine lakes, and the kind of peace that comes from being surrounded by nature. It’s no wonder that more and more buyers are discovering the value of owning property in the Pine Tree State. From families seeking a quiet place to put down roots, to investors interested in land with long-term potential, Maine offers a unique blend of beauty, lifestyle, and opportunity.
THE VALUE OF OWNING IN MAINE
Maine real estate isn’t just about the square footage of a house or the acreage of a parcel of land — it’s about the lifestyle that comes with it. Owning property here means:
Outdoor Living at Its Best – Whether it’s fishing at dawn, hiking in autumn foliage, or snowmobiling across fresh powder, Maine’s four seasons bring endless opportunities for adventure right outside your back door.
A Legacy – With vast tracts of timberland, farms, and waterfront parcels, Maine properties often carry long-term value. Many families view land ownership here as both a personal retreat and an investment for generations.
Community and Culture – Beyond the woods and waters, Maine’s towns and villages offer strong communities, rich traditions, and the welcoming spirit of neighbors who know the value of slowing down and enjoying life.
WHY NOW?
Over the past year, Maine has continued to attract attention from out-of-state buyers as well as lifelong Mainers looking to expand or downsize. Inventory has begun to grow, giving buyers more choice, while
More Than Property, It’s a Lifestyle
by THE MAINE OUTDOOR PROPERTIES TEAM
sellers continue to benefit from strong demand and steadily rising values. This balance creates a favorable environment for both sides of the market.
THE FUN SIDE OF MAINE LIVING
Ask any Mainer and they’ll tell you: life here isn’t just about the property — it’s about experiencing what it offers. A cabin in the woods becomes the hub for hunting trips and family gatherings. A farmhouse transforms into a place where kids learn the value of open fields and fresh air. A lakefront home offers summer evenings of laughter around a campfire, and winter mornings skating on glassy ice.
There is something undeniably special about Maine living: a mix of rugged independence and shared joy that makes even simple moments feel extraordinary.
THE MAINE OUTDOOR PROPERTIES TEAM ADVANTAGE
In such a diverse and dynamic market, choosing the right real estate team makes all the difference. That’s where The Maine Outdoor Properties Team stands apart.

Many of us have backgrounds in forestry, wildlife management, farming, and hospitality. That means when we walk a property, we see more than just acreage; we see potential, challenges, and opportunities that others might miss.
For buyers, we help identify the property that truly fits their goals — whether that’s a timber investment,
a sporting camp, a vacation retreat, or a family home in a quiet town. For sellers, we bring targeted marketing strategies, strong industry connections, and a passion for showcasing what makes each property unique.

LOOKING AHEAD
As Maine continues to attract interest from around the country, we see a bright future for both buyers and sellers. Demand for quality properties — especially those that highlight Maine’s outdoor lifestyle — remains strong. Whether you’re considering selling a beloved family camp or searching for your own piece of Maine, the opportunities have never been better.
At the heart of it all, Maine real estate is about more than transactions. It’s about people, land, and the stories that connect them. And at Maine Outdoor Properties Team, we are proud to be part of those stories — helping clients discover the beauty, value, and joy that come with owning a piece of Maine.
