 Here’s Clarence and Evelyn Buckleys Story:

When Clarence and Evelyn Buckley wanting to farm less and travel more, they decided the time had come to sell some land. While any sale of farmland is emotional for those involved, it was especially so for the Buckleys. They cherish the land that Clarence’s grandfather first settled in 1886, and added to in 1930.

For the Buckleys, the decision to retain Fred Mertz for their land sale came easily. As their long-time tax specialist, he could integrate a sale with their personal tax planning strategy. And as a realtor with MaxWell Canyon Creek, they also knew Fred would represent their interests with complete personal commitment.

The land sale was completed by early 2007, and the Buckleys say they are happy with both the process Fred Mertz used, and the price he secured.
