Storytelling Sells When Selling Land in Southwest Wisconsin

When it comes to selling land in Southwest Wisconsin, the way your property is presented can make or break the sale. At LandGuys, we believe that “facts tell, but stories sell.” And that’s especially true in this region, where the value of the land goes far beyond acreage—it’s about lifestyle, legacy, and connection. Whether it’s farmland, timber, or a rural retreat, every property has a story—and we’re here to help you tell it the right way.

Our Southwest Wisconsin team—Luke Wessel and Justin Bernklau—are experts at telling your land’s story in a way that connects with buyers and drives results.

Telling a Story That Resonates

When you’re selling land, buyers need more than specs—they need to see themselves on the land. That’s where we come in.

“Facts tell, but stories sell” isn’t just a catchy phrase—it’s a strategy. Listings with storytelling see 20% more engagement than those without (Stevens & Tate, 2023).

We understand that the value of land isn’t just in acreage—it’s in what it represents to a buyer. That’s why we design every listing to evoke that connection. Whether it’s a legacy hunting property, a buildable rural lot, or a high-CSR2 crop field, we make it stand out.

Why Agent Expertise Matters

Not every real estate agent understands the rural market. Many focus exclusively on residential homes only, which isn’t ideal when selling land or a country home in Southwest Wisconsin.

Luke and Justin specialize in rural living and know how to communicate that lifestyle to perspective buyers. Rural living includes both land AND country homes. They can speak the language to farmers, hunters, conservationists or people simply seeking a rural retreat.

Professional Media = Real ROI

When it comes to selling land in Southwest Wisconsin, professional photography and video aren’t extras—they’re essentials.

Listings with high-quality photos sell 32% faster
Professional images get 61% more views
Nearly half of buyers are willing to pay more for listings with great media (GITNUX, 2023)

And don’t forget video. Listings with video generate 403% more inquiries than those without (QRCode-Tiger, 2023). Properties with 3D tours or drone footage? Up to 87% more views (Resimpli, 2023).

If your land isn’t being marketed with modern, professional media—you’re leaving money on the table.

Making Buyers Feel Something

The goal of everything we do—from listing copy to drone flyovers—is to generate an emotional response.

A buyer should feel something when they look at your listing.

They should be able to see the sun rising over the timberline. Imagine deer walking through the draw. Hear their kids running through the grass on summer nights. That emotional connection moves people to act—and that’s what creates competitive offers.

A Better Experience for Everyone

Great marketing doesn’t just help sellers. It helps buyers too.

When your land is clearly and beautifully presented, buyers feel confident, informed, and excited. That means less back-and-forth, faster decision-making, and smoother closings.

Selling land doesn’t have to feel complicated. When you have the right team behind you, it’s a story with a happy ending—for everyone.
