LEADERSHIP, EDUCATION AND THE FUTURE OF LAND REAL ESTATE

 

Jimmie Dean Coffey discusses the REALTORS® Land Institute, the ALC designation and opportunities for collaboration in the land industry.

 

Land real estate requires specialized knowledge, strong professional standards and a commitment to serving clients well. Those principles are at the heart of the latest episode of The Sale Ring Podcast, featuring Jimmie Dean Coffey, Vice President of United Country Auction Services and 2027 Vice President of the REALTORS® Land Institute (RLI).

 

In the episode, Jimmie discusses RLI's mission and the organization's role in advancing education and professionalism among land real estate professionals. He also explores the importance of the Accredited Land Consultant (ALC) designation and the value specialized education can bring to professionals working with land buyers and sellers.

 

The conversation also highlights the natural connection between United Country and RLI. Both organizations have a strong connection to land professionals and share a commitment to education, expertise and client service.

Land has been central to United Country since the company's beginning. Today, its nationwide network serves buyers and sellers of farms, ranches, recreational properties, timberland and other rural real estate, combining local market knowledge with specialized resources.

 

As the land industry continues to evolve, education and collaboration will remain important tools for professionals who want to provide knowledgeable, informed service to their clients.
