Elk River Land Services was launched in 2014 with the help of a client that believed in our ability to produce the kind of work that they needed to succeed. We have done just that ever since. Elk River Land is comprised of a small, elite team of landmen, each of whom has many years of experience and have developed expertise in their respective fields. We are small and we like it that way. Being small means that we can provide the best field landmen to do the job and do it right. Being small means that we do not cut corners and we do not have room for landmen that are not experts. It also means that if you are one of our clients you are always our top priority. Your project will never be put on the back shelf because someone else more important than you came along. We put our reputation on the line every time we accept a project. As a small broker, our reputation means everything to us and that means we will do everything we need to do to make sure your project comes in correctly, on time and within budget. We have retained every client that has ever hired us. Put simply, we care and we will not let you down.
Large firms often fill their crews with inexperienced, poorly trained agents who know some basics on how to do one task or another in one place or another. That is not the case with us. Our agents have proven track records that speak for themselves. Most of our agents have a decade of experience or more in several plays and are versatile enough to handle any field land job anywhere in the country. Of course they each have specific areas where they shine and we know them well enough to match the right agents to the right projects. We can do that because we know each agent. Big brokers who have hundreds of agents can not very well assess each agent’s strengths or know their shortcomings.
The strength of our team ranges from the most complicated of held by production work to the most complicated of subdivision work and sometimes includes both at the same time. We have run title on towns dedicated in the late 1800s and early 1900s and leased them. We have run working interest title on lands that have been producing from multiple formations for generations. We know how complex title can be because we have seen it all and we know what to do with it.
