DALLAS, Nov. 16, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- International
Real Estate Sales Advisor Bernard
Uechtritz' Icon Global Group reports a robust and successful
end of year with major multiple high-end properties sold and under
contract as well as a series of new specialty and legacy listings
across Texas, Wyoming, Kentucky, Alaska and others ranging from $10M to $100M.
"A significant increase in large sales and listing activity in
our Q3 and Q4 periods are great indicators of a robust return of
the ranching marketplace and investor confidence in our space,"
stated Icon Global founder Bernard Uechtritz.
"The group's recent public results include the successful
marketing and sale of a 26,000-acre ranch in Wyoming listed at $21.5
million (sold in 8 months) the 15,000-acre Rio Bonito Hunting Ranch near Kerrville, Texas listed at $45 million (sold in 9 months) and the renowned
Barefoot Ranch publicly listed at nearly $60
million near Athens, Texas
also under contract in less than a year. We also have really good
early indicators in the pending sale by sealed bid offering of the
$34 million Broseco Ranch in
Omaha, Texas closing out
November 30th."
"We are the proven 'go to' guys and specialty product market
leader when it comes to marketing high priced, one of a kind
extraordinary and unique properties," he said. "Oftentimes
our challenges are significant; however, our track record is solid.
We've sold as well as have under contract some of the biggest,
toughest stuff out there in the marketplace. So, when we are doing
well in the 'hard to sell space', it follows that the rest of the
'easier' lower end market is vibrant. Our recent smaller successes
in the $5/$10/$15 million
range all underscore enthusiastic active market conditions."
"Tonight, Icon Global is sponsoring a private invitation only
event at Dallas Cowboys 'The Star'
in Frisco, Texas where we will
announce the public price as well as buyers syndicate in formation
for 'The Reserve' in Sulphur Bluff,
Texas."
"These numbers along with the current progress of our
$250 million Sandow Lakes mixed use
deal outside of Austin, Texas
which remains on track are really positive signs. Recent
progressive developments and this buoyant market have augmented
both existing and new interest in our process at Sandow Lakes."
"The new listing inventory side is exciting, diversified and
robust. Our new 'Waggoner Ranch sized' deal is a 500,000 acre
cattle ranch in Alaska which runs
10,000 head of cattle, as well as the incredible Frank Stronach Adena Springs thoroughbred farm
in Kentucky listed $75 million. Significantly, we about to market
for the first time in history the 5,000-acre Pipe Creek Ranch near
San Antonio for the Northrup family estate at $50 million. We are also rolling out Terry Bradshaw's incredible 750-acre
Red River property near
Dallas, an already pristine
property which has recently undergone several significant capital
improvements and additions which is really, really well priced at
$9.9 Million."
